detected.
l
When either the exerciser starts pedaling or when the ASL Wakeup switch (ASL light
cover) is pressed, the ASL light will power-on and start indicating the current machine
ASL status. The ASL light will remain ON while the machine is being used (pedaled)
and will switch OFF after 90 seconds of non-use (no pedaling).
l
Because only one status color and state can be shown at a time, the condition states are
prioritized as follows from lowest to highest: Blue Solid (lowest), Blue Pulsing, Yellow
Solid, Yellow Pulsing (highest). Higher priority states are always shown before a lower
priority state, until cleared.
l
The console
UPCA
1
determines the ASL state using inputs from the error log and main-
tenance counter. During active operation (workout in progress) or during the pause
state, the console transmits the ASL state to the lower control board (
LPCA
2
).
l
Only direct error code and maintenance counter data is used to determine the current
machine ASL state. No special algorithms (e.g., user behavior) are utilized to determine
the status.
l
Similar to other self-powered products, the lower control board (LPCA) powers OFF
between workouts. The power-on and power-off of the ASL are under control of the
LPCA at all times. The console cannot control power-on or power-off. The LPCA
powers ON when the user pedals above the minimum RPM and for one minute after
stopping, and powers ON for 90 seconds when the Wakeup switch is pressed.
l
Error code operation: A logged system error code will cause the ASL to begin pulsing
yellow. If the error self-corrects, the ASL will change from pulsing to solid yellow.
Depending on the error code type, after the end of a workout, the solid yellow light will
either revert back to blue (or pulsing blue), or require the operator to do a manual reset
from the service menu.
l
Maintenance counter operation: The counter starts at 250 hours and counts down the
hours of active use to 0 hours. When the counter reaches zero, the ASL will begin
pulsing blue indicating preventative maintenance is due.

Viewing the ASL light
o
When in active use with exerciser striding.
o
When the exerciser presses the Wakeup switch located on the rear of the unit.
o
For 90 seconds after the exerciser ceases striding.
o
For 90 seconds after the Wakeup switch is pressed.

Lower printed circuit assembly; generally this refers to the lower board. On treadmills, this is
the motor controller unit (MCU), and on self-powered units, it is the main board in the lower
section.
