Mode of operation
[7.B1]
General notes
The running machine is equipped with 4 modes of operation: manual, profile, cardio and test. Some of the modes
of operation can also be changed online into another while the running machine is in operation.
Select the Mode first (see 4 LED) with
a
or
d
and confirm the Mode with
c
The incorporated series interface is always active. This means, that you can send and receive data/commands at
any time (parallel) and during any mode. Always the latest command will be executed. No matter if the command
came via interface or from the UserTerminal during one of the 4 modes.

Acceleration levels / acceleration intensity
7 different acceleration levels and deceleration levels are available for all modes and for remote control via
interface and h/p/cosmos coscom protocol. Max. acceleration level and minimum acceleration level see chapter:
User options / optional functions. The following diagram shows the acceleration levels at a running machine with
maximum speed of 40km/h. The acceleration levels are programmable for every single program step of the
individual profile and tests. The acceleration levels are accessible via interface and optional PC software
h/p/cosmos para control and h/p/cosmos para graphics.
Explanation:
[a] Speed in km/h,
[b] Time in seconds 0 to maximum
speed: Intensity
[1] 131 sec., [2] 66 sec., [3] 33 sec.,
[4] 16 sec., [5] 8 sec., [6] 5 sec. and
[7] 3 sec.
Slow acceleration (level 1 or 2) is for
rehabilitation and for fitness for
beginners. Medium acceleration (level 3
or 4) is for well trained subjects for
speeding up or slowing down pretty fast.
High acceleration (level 5 to 7) is only for
top athletes for sprint training and other
competitive sports applications.
Therefore the high accelerations are only
accessible via special release in the
optional functions, protected by access
key.
Never set too high loads (speed, acceleration, elevation). High loads are forbidden, if the
health and the condition of the test person / patient do not allow them and a doctor has not
authorized these loads. Disregard may cause injuries and dangerous health problems. At
high loads and identifiable risks meet the appropriate higher and reasonable safety
precautions.
