When user sees this message the belt speed will decrease automatically. If user is already at minimum speed (i.e.
0.5 mph) then workout will enter Pause mode. If speed is more than one mph/kph below target speed then speed is
reduced by ½. If speed is closer to target when an “Unattained…” occurs then speed is decremented between 0.1 to
0.3 mph/kph.

A simple test to determine if console is communicating with the motor controller is to cycle power and listen for
beeps from the MIB board. The MIB will beep once after it gets power followed by three additional beeps if it can
successfully communicate with the motor controller. This process is done before the main Application on the SBC is
up and running (i.e. before you see the “Splash” screen which contains the word “initializing” on it).
