Creating Custom Courses on the M9.21si
You can program the M9.21si and create your own course profiles using the two custom
courses (“CUST1” and “CUST2”). Programming a custom course is easy. You just create the
custom courses as you work out by determining the speed and incline for each 0.1 mile segment
along the 8-mile maximum course length. Speed and incline settings are saved once every .1 of a
mile which equals 10 dots on the display. Once you complete your workout, the course is stored
in memory and can be automatically recalled using the same program number.
To create a custom course, follow the steps in
Working Out on the M9.21i or M9.21si Low
Impact Treadmill and add the following variation.
1.
At the “SELECT COURSE” prompt, choose your custom course: either “CUST 1” or “CUST 2.”
Press the
▼
or
▲
keys until you see the desired course, then press ENTER.
Note: After pressing ENTER, a prompt scrolls across the display warning you that the
custom course contains set speed and inclines. You are not to use the course if you are not
familiar with it. The following instructions assume that you are programming a new custom
course. However, if you want to use the existing custom course, press SPEED
▲
to begin.
2.
Hold onto the handrail and press the SPEED
▲
key. Step onto the running belt while the
speed is at or below 1 mph and begin walking. Use the INCLINE
▼▲
keys to change the
course profile as you walk. The first time the custom courses appear, the profile appears
flat (0% incline) until you change it.
3.
As you move through the course, you can change the course profile by using the SPEED
and INCLINE
▼▲
keys on the segment that is blinking. You cannot “go back” to a segment
once you move beyond it. However, you can pause by pressing STOP. Prompts appear and
scroll across the display asking you to save the course and end your workout, or continue
with your workout.
•
Pressing ENTER saves the course profile up to the point (mile or kilometer) where you
stopped and resets any previously saved program course.
Note: You must program at least .10 mile (10 dots on the display) before your new
course can be saved otherwise the software reverts back to the existing course. If an
existing course profile extended beyond the segment where you stopped, it will be
discarded.
•
Pressing SPEED
▲
starts the running belt and allows you to continue from where you
left off. Be sure to hold onto the handrail before pressing SPEED
▲
.
4.
Once you reach the maximum distance of 8 miles, the prompt, “END COURSE” appears and
scrolls across the display. The running belt slows to a gradual stop, the incline returns to 0%,
and prompts appear requesting that you save your changes.
5.
Save your changes by pressing ENTER. Once you save your custom course, you can work out
and use the same course over and over by entering the associated custom course number.
Deleting Custom Courses on the M9.21si
An existing custom course can be deleted by pressing both INCLINE
▼
or
▲
keys when the
custom course profile appears on the display. Take the following steps to delete a custom course:
1.
After answering the setup prompts and choosing your custom course, a “CAUTION”
message scrolls across the screen indicating that an existing custom course exists.
2.
When the course profile appears on the display, press both INCLINE
▼▲
keys and hold for
at least 3 seconds. A message appears indicating that the custom course profile has been
reset (0% incline and 1 mph/kph speed).
CAUTION: Once you press the INCLINE
▼▲
keys to reset the course profile, you cannot
retrieve the old custom course.
CAUTION: After pressing ENTER, clear an
existing custom course profile by simulta-
neously pressing both the INCLINE
▼▲
keys
for at least 3 seconds. The course profile
reverts to a blinking line at 0% incline. Be
cautious about performing this procedure.
Once you clear an existing course profile, you
cannot retrieve it.
