M3i INDOOR GROUP CYCLE
16
BACKLIGHT SENSOR
While the computer is awake, the backlight sensor automatically detects ambient light levels in the
room and turns on the backlight display when needed.
RPM (CADENCE)
The RPM displays the revolutions per minute of the crank arm—also known in the cycling world as cadence—
and is roughly the speed at which the cyclist is pedaling.
POWER AND ENERGY
The power output is displayed in Watts (currently generating) and Kilocalories (total value for the
workout). The computer toggles back and forth between Watts for eight seconds and Kilocalories for two seconds. The rated
accuracy for power between 30 and 160 RPM is
±
5 Watts for power below 50 Watts, and
±
10% for power above 50 Watts.
HEART RATE
If there is no Heart Rate signal, a steady heart symbol and a zero will be displayed. If a user is wearing a Heart
Rate strap, once the computer locks onto the signal, the heart symbol will blink and display the heart rate.
Only POLAR
®
with coded GymLink heart rate sensors are compatible with Keiser M Series indoor cycles.
ELAPSED TIME
The number shown reports the total workout time spent and will reset to zero after 60 seconds of inactivity
or if the computer is reset using the gear shifter.
GEAR
Gears from 1 to 24 are displayed on the bottom left hand of the screen.
ODOMETER/TRIP DISTANCE
When the computer is activated, the Odometer “ODO” will display the distance accrual of the
bike
for the first eight seconds. This feature is for service and maintenance purposes only. After approximately eight seconds
the Odometer “ODO” will disappear to display the Trip units for two seconds (“USA” = Miles, “EURO” = Kilometers), followed
by the Trip Distance for the remainder of the workout. Trip is a calculated distance value (flat road run) based on power
production (Note: To change the Trip units, follow the instructions within the “Bluetooth
®
smart
” procedure on
page 18).

OVERVIEW
DISPLAY FEATURES
WORKOUT DATA
To view averages: RPM, Power, and Heart Rate, at any point in the workout, stop pedaling for three seconds. This will flash
your averages until you start pedaling again or until the computer goes to sleep after 60 seconds.
INTERVAL TRAINING
To initiate an interval, starting from a high gear drop the Resistance Lever to “GEAR 1” for 1/4 of a second and lift it up to
a higher gear immediately. “inL #” will display confirming the interval has started.
Repeat the above steps to end the interval (“inL End” will display) and the averages for that interval will blink.
Note: The averages displayed at the end of your workout when pedaling has stopped are inclusive of all pedaling times and
intervals that have taken place during your workout.
Bluetooth
®
sMArt
ENABLED
The Bluetooth
®
smart
enabled computer allows Bluetooth
®
smart
Ready devices such as cellphones, tablets, and computers
to gather information about your workout. M3i compatible apps allow data to be stored to track progress over time and
make the data available to other fitness applications. Classrooms are able to utilize real time performance tracking programs
which give the entire class an opportunity to see their performance compared with other participants in the class.
To receive and download workout information from your M3i, a Bike ID number is required, which identifies your M3i for
individual or group Bluetooth discovery. The Bike ID number is viewable within the first eight seconds (displayed as “bid”
and followed by any number 1 to 200, see Figure 14). To assign a Bike ID to your M3i, see “Bluetooth
®
smart
” procedure on
page 18. Note: Bike ID set to “0” may not be discovered by Bluetooth devices.
