Resets all values in the display segments back to zero. Press this button when the data display module still shows
previous values, e.g. from the previous user.
Then operate the treadmill via the handrail-mounted keypad or an external control system.
e) Speed display (10)
The upper display (10) shows the current treadmill speed. Your system can be set to display either kilometers per
hour or meters per second via button (11) located to the right of this display. The two LEDs located between the
display and the button indicate which of the two unit systems is active at any given time. The display includes a
leading sign. This lights up when the “reverse switch” function is activated (reversal of the direction of travel of the
slat-belt running surface to enable downhill operation). This function is not supplied as standard equipment and
can only be activated by means of an external control system via the RS-232 interface.
f)
Distance and energy display (9)
This display element (9) shows, updated at ten-second intervals, the total distance traveled in kilometers and the
total energy expended by the runner in kilocalories since the last time the treadmill was started. The upper LED
next to the display indicates that the displayed value corresponds to the distance. The lower one indicates display
of energy exerted.
The values of distance and energy remain in the system after the treadmill has been stopped. To delete them,
press the reset button (8).
g) Elapsed time display (7)
The display element (7) shows the elapsed training/therapy time. In the beginning, the display shows the time
elapsed since the start of the session, with the minutes on the left side and the seconds on the right. The two
values are separated by two dots that blink once per second. The upper LED to the right of the display indicates
this condition.
When the length of a training session exceeds one hour, the display changes to hours and minutes. At that point,
the upper LED turns off and the one beneath it lights up instead.
The values remain in the system after the treadmill has been stopped. To delete them, press the reset button (8).
h) Inclination and pulse rate display (6)
These two values are likewise shown on a single display field (6).
If the Polar transmission chest strap is used, the pulse rate in beats per minute (bpm) is displayed.
Caution – Possible danger of injury or damage.
Although the Polar pulse rate measurement provides very precise data, the pulse measurement
system is only used as a general indicator. The treadmill pulse measurement is not intended for
diagnostic or medical purposes. For diagnostic or medical purposes, use only ECG instruments
specifically designed and approved for that purpose.
Following modification of the degree of inclination in % (via the handrail-mounted keypad or an external control
system), the new value appears on the display for five seconds. The upper LED next to the display is lit. If the
inclination remains unchanged, the runner’s current pulse rate will be displayed after this period of time and the
lower LED will be lit.
As with the speed value, the inclination display also has a leading sign. Negative inclination is only possible for
treadmills that are equipped accordingly. The leading sign lights up when the “reverse switch” function is activated
(reversal of the direction of travel of the slat-belt running surface to enable downhill operation). This function is
not supplied as standard equipment and can only be activated by means of an external control system via the RS-
232 interface.
For treadmills with no pulse rate monitor system or when the transmission chest strap is not worn, the degree of
inclination is displayed continuously.
