[3.C] General Instructions / Safety
This instruction manual is part of the device and must always be accessible for every user.
Exact observance of the instruction manual is a requirement for the appropriate operation of an h/p/cosmos device.
Holding the handrails during exercise may effect the exercise results (e.g. heart rate, ECG, oxygen uptake, etc.). Under
normal conditions and for healthy subjects we recommend to hold the handrails only for emergency or when needed for
safety or unweighting.
Important notes, warnings and safety precautions are marked with the opposite sign. It also
reminds you of concerns which have to be considered for measurements and connection with
other devices.
The safety of your subjects and the compliance to the mentioned accuracy of measurement can only be achieved, if the
consumption goods, sensors and detectors, described in the instruction manual, are being used and the recommended
preventive maintenance and safety checks are performed by personnel authorised by h/p/cosmos.
Absorption-, cleansing- and disinfecting chemicals are only to be kept in the appropriate reservoirs. At the connection of
gas pressure container it has to be examined about its MOT-admissibility (TÜV) first. Pull the plug before cleansing or
disinfecting electric devices.
Safety, reliability and function can only be achieved if ...
N installation, extension, alteration and repair is performed by authorized people.
N the room for installation corresponds to the DIN and VDE installation directives.
N the device is plugged in at a socket with a protection system.
N the room for installation corresponds to the requirements of the surroundings for the device.
N the device after the instruction is being used in accordance with the instruction manual.
The entry of fluid into the device has to be removed immediately by the authorized customer service and a safety
examination has to be performed. Damaged socket connections, wires and pressure control switches have to be
replaced instantly by trained personnel or by authorised persons.
In case of any detected and/or assumed malfunctions and/or defects or unreadable safety warning
labels the device has to be taken out of operation, the device has to be marked and secured
against operation (for example pull power plug and affix warning/defect label on the power plug)
and the supplier and authorised service personnel has to be informed in writing.
The regulations mentioned in this chapter refer to the Federal Republic of Germany. For all other states take into
account the national legislation. If the running machine is a sports device (only c mark without 4-digit number), it must
not be connected with a medical product and must not be used for medical purposes. Due to higher safety requirements
medical instruments and devices are not allowed to be connected via extension cable and/or multiple plug socket with
the power supply, and a medical product must not be connected with a sports device either.
Disregard of warnings, disregard of intended and forbidden use, safety precautions and also
unauthorized or lack of maintenance and/or regular safety checks may lead to injuries or even
death and/or can damage the device and will result in loss of any liability and warranty
[3.D1] Electric safety / Safety classes
In order to protect the subject (athlete and/or patient) and the personnel, the association of German electrotechnicians Inc, (VDE) has published special directives for medical used rooms and electro-medical devices.
Devices with a power supply therefore have to, in order to prevent the passing on of the mains voltage over to
touchable metal pieces, be equipped with not only a reliable isolation of the parts being under voltage but also
additional safety precautions. The VDE-association divides it into so called safety classes.
Of the, for electro-medical devices, licensed safety classes are mainly used the safety class I (i.e. safety
precautions with protective wiring), and the safety class II, (i.e. safety measures without protective wiring but with
double isolation): Devices of the safety class I are devices, where the metallic casing-parts are connected with the
protective wire of the line net via the safety contact. In the case of an isolation error the inserted fuse element
switches off.
[3.D2] Patient security according to VDE 0750 (IEC 601-1) type B
If your h/p/cosmos device has a c mark with a 4-digit number (e.g. n) at the identification plate, it is a
medical product. At your h/p/cosmos medical product the patient is protected/isolated from the mains in
accordance with the safety standard referring to the requirements for leakage current values according to IEC 6011 type B. The connection of further mains-operated units to your h/p/cosmos-unit may cause that all the leakage
currents add and the safety of the patient is reduced. Due to this the connection of further units may only be
carried out on consultation with h/p/cosmos.
[3.D3] Potential equalization
The connection of e.g. EDP units to the V24 / RS 232 / USB / LAN / FireWire interface of the computer or of other
independent measuring stations can only be carried out in medically utilized locations according to VDE 0107 / EN
ISO 60601-1-1. Parallel connection of the potential equalization ensures, that in case of insulation failure none of
the connected units exceeds a voltage of 10mV and thus endangers the patient.
For this purpose all of the h/p/cosmos units are equipped with a connection fixture with which the equipotent
conductor, being part of the standard equipment, is connected to the equipotent bus bar of the room.
Standard potential equalization cable (length 5m) with 4mm
[3.D4] Connection of units installed outside medically utilized locations
If units installed outside medically utilized locations (e. g. external printer, host computer etc.) are connected to an
h/p/cosmos unit installed in a medically utilized location the VDE 0750 regulations must be observed. Connection
only via …
1. Optical fibre or optocoupler (4 kV checked and approved) or …
2. Protective isolation via insulation transformer according to IEC 601-1, appendix k. These units are to be
connected to the equipotent conductor.
Due to the increased safety requirements medical instruments may not be connected via extension leads or multiway connectors.
[3.D5] Medical electrical systems
The medical electrical system (later in this text referred as “system”) is a combination of several devices, of which
at least one is a medical electrical equipment. A combination occurs when devices are connected via so called
“functional connections” or via a mobile multiple socket. Not only electrical connections are defined as “functional
connections” but also those for the transmission of signals, electrical energy and/or substances. Thus already the
operation of two or more devices on the same multiple outlet is defined as a system. Even a mechanical
connection or a wireless connection produces a medical electrical system.
Basically it is imperative that a system is as safe as a single medical electrical equipment. The requirements in the
medical devices act and the applicable regulations (for example MPBetreibV) must be met. The system as a whole
must ensure that within the patients environment or at contact with patients the same level of safety prevails, as
determined by DIN EN 60601-1 (VDE 0750 Part 1).
[3.D6] Subject's surroundings
The surroundings of the subject must
have a gap of 1.5 m as it has been
proofed by experience. This has been
laid down here as the surrounding.
[3.D7] Protection against the danger of electrical shocks
Casing and cover: Parts of non-medical
electric devices within the surrounding of
the subject, which, after having taken off
the coverings etc. without the use of tools
for a routine maintenance etc., are in
touchable reach, have to operate with a
voltage that does not exceed 25 volt
alternate voltage and 60 volt direct
voltage, which is produced by a separate
source as described in IEC 601-1.
According to this example the leakage
current would flow from the electric device
to the earthened subject via the trainer/doctor.
Electrical equipment [3] and a subject [1] must never be touched by the doctor or trainer [2]
at the same time.
[3.D8] Environmental requirements
safety, warnings, precautions, prohibitions
Running machines are not to be used in medically utilized rooms with a danger of explosions or in easily
inflammable atmospheres. The devices must not be installed near to e.g. an x-ray device, motors or transformer
with high connection power, as the electric and magnetic interference can falsify measurements or even make
them impossible. High voltage lines must be avoided nearby the device. h/p/cosmos electrical devices with mains
connections must neither be used in wet and humid areas (e.g. swimming pool, sauna, etc.) nor in environmental
chambers.
If not stated otherwise in the delivery information h/p/cosmos devices are designed for operation in normal climatic
surroundings (DIN IEC 601-1):
N Temperature: + 10° ... + 40° C
N Relative humidity: 30 ... 70 % (non condensing!)
N Air pressure: 700 ... 1060 mbar
N Maximum operating altitude: approx. 10,000 feet (3000m), without pressurization
The running machine has to be protected from high humidity. Venting slots are not to be covered; otherwise it
would hinder the air circulation. Store the devices at a temperature of – 20° ... + 50° C.
All devices can be stored without power-connection and without operation for a period of 6 – 9 months. After this
period batteries in the device may be discharged and maintenance and/or a new setup/programming of the device
could required by authorized h/p/cosmos technician.
The economic life time of the product is determined at common usage and application to 20 years, provided that after 10
years all electrical parts and component are renewed (at damage or unusual heavy duty possibly earlier) and the
recommended maintenance intervals are kept. Every maintenance and repair work needs to be carried out by
authorized h/p/cosmos technicians. For expendable parts a shorter life-time is due.

Children are only allowed to use the running machine under constant supervision of a
medical doctor and only when safeguarded by safety harness with fall-stop. Additionally
h/p/cosmos suggests the use of adjustable handrails.
[3.H3] h/p/cosmos medical running machines - MDD medical device directive. Safety standards
Over 20 years of experience in the production of treadmill-ergometers and complex systems with accessories and
special options have made h/p/cosmos the absolute treadmill specialist. We consider ourselves as the “market
precursor in technology and safety” amongst all treadmill manufacturers. Safety has a very high priority for us –
above all because we know from experience what kind of accidents can occur and which consequences might
result from these accidents.
On the one hand a treadmill is a very effective instrument in rehabilitation, therapy and diagnostics. However, like
in many areas of daily life (i.e. all kinds of traffic, may it be by car, train or bus or the handling of electrical machine
tools etc.) the use of a treadmill involves dangers which can be minimized by abiding strictly to safety procedures,
but can never be fully ruled out. As a manufacturer it is h/p/cosmos’ duty, and as the distributor or enduser/operator of the running machine it is your duty, to minimize those dangers as far as possible.
In medical applications many additional risks (patients with pacemakers, ECG lead and electrode connections to
the skin, health and physical limitations, high workloads during stress tests, medication, etc.) have to be
considered. Therefore medical treadmills with interface and interactive heart rate based load controls are classified
as risk class IIb medical devices. They have specific additional design characteristics compared to fitness
treadmills, and can only be sold and serviced by authorized and certified distributors. h/p/cosmos has the
responsibility to ensure that the systems are correctly installed (with usage instruction) and maintained. Therefore
we have implemented a medical device observation and reporting system based on the statutory obligations
contained in, Guideline 93/42 EEC, MDD (medical device directive), ISO9001 and EN13485 standard and our
internal safety policy and risk management system. This is of utmost importance and all our distributors must sign
a contract that they will comply with these important international rules for medical devices, particularly for class IIb
devices and their respective statutory requirements.
h/p/cosmos fulfils its duty in different ways:
N All medical treadmill-ergometer device-families have to undergo an internal product-type examination as well
as external tests performed by the respective examination institutes such as the TUV Product Service in
Munich / Germany or the EMC laboratory. Our medical treadmill-ergometers meet the norms and guidelines
stipulated for medical applications such as the, MDD, EU guideline 93/42 EEC for medical products, IEC EN
60601-1 (VDE 0750), VDE 0751, IEC EN 60601-1-2 (EMC), IEC EN 60601-1-4, EN 957-1, EN 957-6.
N All h/p/cosmos medical treadmill-ergometers must undergo a 24-hour non-stop test after production with strict
safety tests, high-voltage-tests and electrical as well as mechanical safetychecks. All tests are recorded,
checked by a second independent employee and filed. h/p/cosmos treadmills have to pass the checks 100%
without exception.
N All medical h/p/cosmos treadmill-ergometers have an Emergency Off Switch (current off with mains
disconnection, not only the “standard software controlled emergency stop button”), power supply with
increased voltage resistance, electrical installation and wiring according to IEC 60601-1, a potential
equalization pin and a potential equalization transformer.
N h/p/cosmos has a quality management and risk management system according to ISO 9001:2000 & ISO
13485:2003 as well as medical device observation and incident reporting system.
N In the course of maintenance work h/p/cosmos technicians or authorised service personnel check the
electrical safety of the treadmill together with all safety relevant details and measure the accuracy of speed
and elevation of the treadmills at the customer’s premises.
N h/p/cosmos trains all relevant service technicians and sales personnel as medical device consultants with
respective certification.
N The user manuals of h/p/cosmos treadmills contain all important information and safety advice as well as
maintenance instructions and user regulations. The treadmills have a label with the date of the next safety
check /maintenance.
N h/p/cosmos offers numerous options and accessories such a safety arch with harness for fall prevention,
chest belt with automatic stop, arm supports or the unweighting system h/p/cosmos airwalk, which increase
safety for the patient during the use of a treadmill-ergometer. http://www.h-p-cosmos.com/en/safety/index.htm
All running machines and other machines with moving belts and parts, hold a great potential of danger at the belt
re-entry zones on the sides and at the end of the running surface, as the gap between running belt and frame is
frequently too wide. To reduce the risk for users, h/p/cosmos running machines have a gap of less than 4 mm and
it is marked clearly with additional danger precaution stickers.
Therefore we take it as our responsibility to inform our partners and customers about the background and
necessity only to use medical products in the medical application field. Statutory requirements only permit us to
supply medically classified equipment for medical applications.
Medical Device Directive Article 1 Definitions, scope 2 a.)
“medical device” means any instrument, apparatus, appliance, material or other article, whether used alone or in
combination, including the software necessary for its proper application intended by the manufacturer to be used
for human beings for the purpose of: Diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment or alleviation of disease,
diagnosis, monitoring, treatment, alleviation of or compensation for any injury or handicap, investigation,
replacement or modification of the anatomy or of a physiological process, control of conception, and which does
not achieve its principal intended action in or on the human body by pharmacological, immunological or metabolic
means, but which may be assisted in its function by such means;
The use of a product not released for medical use by the manufacturer in a medical application can result in
increased risks for the patients and for the operator – especially in the case of an accident on the treadmill
ergometer. In this case all parties involved (your insurance company, your professional association, possibly
patients lawyers and courts) will question negligence and liability. Therefore the use of a sports device for medical
purposes bears increased risks for the distributor, customer, operator, end user and last but not least the patient.
Despite that some of the above mentioned laws and guidelines are only binding within the European Union, the
patient’s needs, the risks and the required safety procedures are the same all over the world. We ask all parties
involved to help in improving safety.
Some examples for safety features at h/p/cosmos devices:
Potential isolation
Opto coupler board Potential equalization
transformer
Medical devices are equipped with an Emergency-OffButton instead of a conventional Safety-Stop-Button,
which disconnects the device from the power supply when
pushing the button in emergency cases. Sport devices
mostly are only equipped with an emercency-stop-button,
which only stops the machine but does not disconnet it
completely from the mains.
N All prohibitions in the chapter "safety precautions, safety regulations, prohibition and warnings"
N The running machine must not be used without being carefully instructed by specialist staff and without having
received notes on the safety regulations.
N Interrupt the training immediately if you start feeling sick or dizzy and see your doctor.
N Subject with a cardiac pacemaker or who suffers from any kind of physical restriction must see a doctor before
using the running machine and ask for allowance.
N Children and animals are not allowed to use the running machine and must not get near (4m safety area) to it.
N Other use, then explicitly listed directed use at the point field of application.
N In case of any detected and/or assumed malfunctions and/or defects or unreadable safety warning labels the
device has to be taken out of operation, the device has to be marked and secured against operation and the
supplier and authorized service personnel has to be informed in writing.
N Every kind of overload of test person / subject / patient is forbidden.
N Every kind of use with increased risk, e.g. sprint or medical application with patients and increased risk of falling, is
forbidden without using additional safety precautions and safety equipment, such as e.g. safety-arch with fall-stop.
N In case of existence of one or more of the following contraindications we strongly suggests to see a medical doctor
or a specialist before using the running machine: pregnancy, acute thrombosis, heart- and/or arteries disease,
fresh wounds e.g. after surgery, artificial joints and limbs, acute fracture, damaged disc or traumatic caused
disease of the spine, diabetes, epilepsy, inflammations, acute migraine and any kind of tumors. Please contact the
manufacturer h/p/cosmos, if your doctor or specialist needs further information about the running machine.
N The automatic operation (modes profile, cardio, test, remote control via PC and peripheral devices) is forbidden, if
the health and condition of the test person / subject / patient does not allow it and if a doctor has not authorized it.
Disregard may cause injuries and dangerous health problems and even death.
N All use with wheels (cycling, wheelchair, inline-skating or roller-ski) is forbidden at standard running surfaces and -
belts. Such applications are only allowed at special running machines marked with „r“(e.g. h/p/cosmos saturn
300/100r). Additionally a safety harness with fall-stop is prescribed. The brakes at the bike respectively wheelchair
must be deactivated (e.g. demount brake suspension) and the stop at the inline-skates must be demounted during
the exercise on the running machine. Do not forget to reactivate brakes before using this equipment outdoor again.
N Never use running shoes or other shoes with spikes or studs at the standard running surface resp. running belt.
These applications are only allowed on special running machines with suffix „rs“ which have as an option
additionally an extra thick running belt. A safety arch with chest belt and fall-stop is also obligatory in this case.
N In environmental conditions, others than specified in the chapter „technical specifications“ and “environmental
conditions“, h/p/cosmos devices must not be used (e.g. in wet and humid areas, swimming pools, sauna,
environmental chambers, high-pressure-, low-pressure, altitude- and oxygen-chambers, etc.).
At the suspicion of unauthorized access or other reasons to lock the running machine, it has to be
locked for starting: See „option 40“ in chapter „option settings“. With option 41 ... 44 you can lock
also separate modes (manual, profile, cardio, test).
When receiving the machine in a crate or unpacked, make sure the machine, the accessories and/or the packaging is
not damaged. If you discover any damage and/or missing parts make a note on the packing-list / delivery note of the
carrier. Inform h/p/cosmos and your dealer immediately in writing about any damages and/or missing parts.
The manufacturer does not undertake any liability for any damage, complaints and missing parts
which is not reported immediately by delivery on the packing-list / delivery note.
Before you unpack the machine and accessories read instructions on the crate. Make sure that the machine, power
connection cable or any optional equipment will not be damaged during unpacking. Pay special attention on small parts,
so that you do not dispose them or any instructions with the packaging. Within Germany mostly all devices are delivered
and assembled by h/p/cosmos directly or by an authorised forwarder. If delivered by h/p/cosmos the packaging will be
taken back and recycled.
If the running machine is being delivered by a carrier, you can recycle the packaging yourself or send it back to the
manufacturer (transportation is to be paid by the customer). Often a recyclable transport tool or packaging or a
transport-fuse (metal angle with screws) is included in the extent of delivery.
Ask your dealer and the carrier to take the packaging and the recyclable transport tool back to your dealer or to
h/p/cosmos at your own costs. In some cases a credit note can be granted. Special packaging and/or carrier
constructions must not be disposed unauthorized.
[4.A1] Transport to upper or lower floors and through narrow doors
With the standard models (sizes running surface 150/50cm, 170/65cm, 190/65cm / except adjustable handrails)
the handrail at the left is easy to remove, as there are no cables inside. The handrail at the right can be
unscrewed, can be put 90° to the left ("lay it on the running belt") and then the handrail has to be temporarily fixed
with special transport fuse construction (available at h/p/cosmos) in order to avoid damages during the transport.
Under the condition that the right handrail lies flat and
temporarily fixed on the running surface, the whole
machine can be put 90° to the right to an upright
position. So the width of the machine is fairly reduced
and can be easily moved through narrow doors or
windows.
A special transport tool is available to move the
machine through aisles - see below (available as loan
object at h/p/cosmos).
Transport angle construction running surface 150/50cm [cos10971]
Transport angle construction running surfaces 170 and 190/65cm [cos10314]
Transport angle construction running surface 200 ... 300/75 ... 125cm [cos14090]
Transport tool for construction size running surface 150/50cm [cos10972]
Transport tool for construction size running surfaces 170 and 190/65cm [cos13794]
For an easy transport put 2 usual trolleys under the device (platform
approximately 30cm x 30cm with 4 maneuverable rolls each) to make the
device “mobile”.
Trolley with 4 rolls for max. 300kg [cos13016]
Trolley with 4 rolls for max. 500kg [cos13672]
[4.A3] Transport of oversize running machines
For big devices it might be the best and only possibility to move them through the window with the help of a special
basket and a heavy mobile crane.
Transports of heavy devices must only be carried out by authorised staff in compliance with
the safety standards. Otherwise there is serious danger for people and devices.
[4.B] Mechanical installation
N In order to ensure proper installation and safety, either the manufacturer, an authorised service crew or an
authorised dealer must always perform transport and installation of the devices
N For reasons of safety please make sure that there is a safety zone of at least L: 2.5m x W: 1.0m behind and
L: 1.0m x B: 1.0m to the front the running machine. Please note, that with the optional equipment reversible
running belt rotation you also have to ensure a safety zone of L: 2.5m x W: 1.0m in front of the running machine.
N Put an aerobic mat (or something similar) in front of and behind the running machine to protect the subject when
falling. Put the device on a rubber mat as large as the device to protect the floor from dust and scratches, to
ensure a firm stand and to reduce noise.
N The provided space for the running machine must be even and horizontal.
N Models with leveling sockets (adjustable "feet") at the rear of the running machine have to be adjusted so that they
have a firm stand, otherwise it could lead to noises like knocking or rattling during the training. Check the weight
load pressure on the leveling sockets (weight of the running machine at the rear), by trying to lift the frame off the
ground at the rear of the running machine one side after the other. That way you can find out, whether you have
got the same load on the two sockets. The levelling sockets and the front wheels of the elevation system may
cause a print in the flooring. In case of sensitive flooring please use h/p/cosmos floor mats for protection:
Floor protection mat 150/50 for running machines with deck size 150x50 cm [cos14005]
Floor protection mat 170/65 for running machines with deck size 170x65 cm [cos14042]
Floor protection mat 190/65 for running machines with deck size 190x65 cm [cos14043]
N For models without leveling sockets please make sure that the floor condition is even and horizontal. The machine
stands with the entire ground frame on the floor.
N Models with a running surface of 200 x 75 cm or bigger: Make sure the floor condition is even and horizontal. The
machine stands with the entire ground frame on the floor. There are leveling sockets incorporated, but they should
only be used in case of problems with and uneven floor.
N Before you switch on the device you need to de-install the mechanical transportation fuse, fixing the upper and
lower frame.
N The bearing capacity of floor and ceiling in the building must be higher than the weight of the machine. It has to be
approved for the h/p/cosmos device by an authorized body of the operator. Example h/p/cosmos saturn 4.0
300/100r: Dimensions ground frame running machine: L: 3400 mm x B: 1490 mm = 5.066 m² platform. Net weight
of running machine: 1300 kg, static bodyweight of subject: 200 kg, dynamical weight of subject: 1200 kg (up to 6
times the bodyweight), over all weight load of system at platform: 2500 kg = bearing capacity of platform: 493.48
kg (~ 500 kg) / m².
N At h/p/cosmos gaitway with integrated force plate the transportation locks have to be removed after erection. Drive
elevation up to max of 25 %. Loosen the four M8 screws, indicated with the red arrows at the underside of the aluforce plates and remove them. Drive elevation down to 0 %. Loosen the locknuts at the levelling sockets. Now
level out the running machine with the help of the Kistler Software and then tighten the locknuts again.
N The running belt has to be checked and if necessary adjusted (see maintenance instructions), so that it is placed
exactly in the middle of the two rollers, after installation or change of location.
N If the running machine is installed safely and horizontal, it can be plugged in (see installation instructions) and
taken into operation.
N It is recommended to lubricate the running surface with 40ml Silicone-Oil before using it for the first time. See
An overload or an voltage drop (even short-time) of more than 20 % of the mains voltage might
cause malfunctions and/or defects and might totally switch-off the running machine. At such high
voltage drops or at total power failure the running machine switches off and the running belt stops.
To start again you have to switch-on the running machine at the main „ON“ switch and than press
START at the keyboard.
N Installation of any electrical device and h/p/cosmos running-machines must only be carried out at a voltage power
connection with ground wire (earthing) including leakage-current protection-switch (interrupter) and according to
VDE 0100 or/and the currently valid regulations and directives. Requirements for special locations, areas and
establishments (e.g. medically used areas) must be strictly adhered. PE-connection (protection-earth-contact) is
stipulated at all running-machines. The voltage drop between the beginning of the consumer’s installation and the
wall socket must not be more than 4% (DIN VDE 0100-520). It is the consignee’s and user’s personal responsibility
to check the correct functions of the mains connection including the outlets and an authorized electrical engineer
must check these points for perfect functions regularly (1 ... 4 years). Inspections of the electrical installations
within the building are not incumbent on the supplier h/p/cosmos.
N Read the nameplate of the machine before connecting the machine to the power outlet, just in case the machine
was designed for special voltage supply (e.g. 110 Volts and 25 Ampere). As standard, a usual power supply of
230 Volt / AC, 50/60 Hz is sufficient for most of the running machines.
N The bigger running machines (size running surface 190/65cm 3p up to 300/125cm)
require a 3 phase AC power supply: 3 x 400 Volt / 32 Amp (running machine
190/65cm 3p 16 Amp) fused (read name of the machine just to make sure) and righthanded polarized (clockwise rotation field).

PE = Ground / Earth (yellow-green wire)
N After having switched on a 3 phase machine, an elevation of 0 % has to be adjusted automatically. If this is not the
case, the unit is to be switched off immediately and the two phases of the wall socket have to be changed so that
the device is supplied with right-handed polarized power. Otherwise the elevation cannot be set correctly and the
power supply of the motor for controlling the elevation is switched off via the limit stop switch at the ground frame.
N Use a usual 16 Ampere expulsion fuse with C-tripping-circuit for your house distribution. For running machine-
models with a construction size of the running surface of 200/75cm up to 300/125cm you will need a 32 Ampere
expulsion fuse with C-tripping-circuit. If however, the expulsion fuses switch off when starting the device, the circuit
has to be secured with a blowout fuse or an expulsion fuse with another tripping-circuit (e.g.: K–fuse). Read name
plate and technical data of the machine just to make sure.
N For further questions please ask your electrical engineer or h/p/cosmos.
N Before installing the running machine please compare the specifications on the nameplate concerning the mains
voltage and the mains frequency with your local characteristics. Connection only if identical.
N Check the main lead, the voltage power supply outlet and ground wire protection-contacts before plugging it in.
Damaged leads and couplers and defective or dirty contacts have to be exchanged immediately. Rubber-leads can
get porous and friable after some years.
[4.C1] Name plate
Name plate examples sports device model h/p/cosmos quasar / medical device h/p/cosmos saturn 300/125r
For full details please refer to the chapter „technical data“ in this manual.
N Plug the running machines directly into the wall socket. Each running machine has to be
connected to a separate circuit. The socket has to be marked with name and serial number of
the running machine. The use of an extension cables or a multiple plug sockets is not
allowed.
N Electrical devices with mains connections must neither be used in wet and humid areas (e.g.
swimming pool, sauna, etc.) nor in environmental chambers.
[4.C2] Electric safety measurements and „First Measured Values“
Immediately at first installation at the customer’s site an electric safety test
and measurement has to be performed for „Protective Earth Resistance“,
„Isolation Resistance“ and „Leakage Current“ and the values have to be
recorded on a special protocol [cos11690xx] and marked with „first
measured values“. For details please refer to the chapter „maintenance /
inspections“ in this manual. One copy of this protocol [cos11690xx]
remains at the owner’s manual and the original of the protocol with the
„first measured values“ shall be sent to the manufacturer h/p/cosmos.
Picture: Example for electric safety testing device based on IEC 601-1
[4.C3] Potential equalization
The potential equalization cable [cos10223] must be connected with the
connector on the device plug and with the potential-compensationbearing within the medically used room. During installation, connecting or
disconnecting the potential equalization, the device (running machine)
must not be connected to the power supply. Protection against electric
shock has to be provided in the finished product/device.
N When used in the medical field, all devices within the system have to be connected via a
potential-compensation-cable in „star-connection“ with the potential-compensationbearing within the medically used room.
N First connect the potential compensation (potential equalization) with the corresponding
plug pin (next to the main switch at the front) and then connect the mains plug.
N During electric safety measurements and test (leakage currents, etc.) the potential
equalization cable has to be disconnected temporarily.
In order to be able to switch on the device, you may have to unlock the Emergency-stop switch first by pulling it
(depending on the type) or turning it around (to the left hand side, see symbol).
[4.D2] Switching the device on
If the running machine is at an angle of elevation > 0 when switching it on, it will
automatically drive into the position zero (display: ELEVATION „INIT“). So please take care
before switching on, that while driving down the elevation no harm can be done to persons
and there are no objects under the running machine.

N The ON-/OFF-intervals must not be shorter than 1-2 minutes (at models with 3-phase
connection: 2-3 minutes). Otherwise it could lead to interference in the adjustment of
the motor or to the failure of the backup.
N The models for medical application with the isolation transformer have an inrush-
current limiter (surge guard). Too short switch on / switch off intervals will lead to a
deactivation of the inrush current limiter and results in an overload of the circuit fuse.
N For the professional use, where the devices are often being used daily, we recommend
to switch on the devices in the morning, and leave it in the stand-by mode during the
day.
Switch off the running machine by pressing the black key (until 2003 red “O” key) at the UserTerminal (some

socket-tester with direct indication (see picture left).
As testing-device we recommend the Testavit Schuki 3 –
[cos15900] - Separate instruction available at h/p/cosmos.
Check the electrical connection of the device: Direct connection to
the wall socket with separate fuse, no danger of stumbling, no
extension cable, no multiple plug socket, separate circuit for the
treadmill. If a correct connection to the wall socket is not possible,
note this on the delivery note, inform the customer and put the
device out of operation (if necessary) and safe
against start-up.
Immediately at first installation an electric safety test / measurment
has to be performed for „Protective Earth Resistance“, „Isolation
Resistance“ and „Leakage Current“ and the values have to be
recorded on a special protocol [cos11690xx] and marked with „first
measured values“. For details please refer to chapter
„maintenance / inspections“. One copy of this protocol
[cos11690xx] remains at the owner’s manual and the original with
the „first measured values“ shall be sent to h/p/cosmos. The
potential equalization cable has to be
connected AFTER the measurements.
Lubricate the running machine before introduction according to
instruction with 30 ml special silicon oil which is part of the “service
box”.
Check the tension of the running belt (no slip).

Test the function of the heart rate transmission with the help of a
simulator or a POLAR sender. Search for interferences and
possible reasons.
If your running machine has no UserTerminal (no display, no keyboard), it can only
be controlled via interface RS 232, e.g. via ECG, Ergospirometry, PC with software
h/p/cosmos para graphics
®
or h/p/cosmos para control®. Important security advices,
warnings, system requirements and a list of the compatible peripheric devices you
can find in this manual under RS232 interface and option functions RS232 protocol
or at our homepage www.coscom.org
More recent computers will have only an USB interface instead of the RS232 interface. For that case an „USB to RS232
interface-adapter-cable“ is available at h/p/cosmos under order number cos12769. To control via USB interface the
processor must be a Pentium 1.8 GHz or higher.
To use all the functions described below and for maintenance and service we recommend the PC software h/p/cosmos
para control
®
(Freeware). It is possible to purchase a keyboard or an external UserTerminal as optional equipment for
these models, which can be connected to the running machine via interface RS232. Option 1: UserTerminal MCU4
remote control with 5 meter cable: h/p/cosmos order number cos10002. Option 2: additional keyboard 6 keys with 2
meter cable: h/p/cosmos order number [cos10106]. When using an additional keyboard it is necessary (depending on
the model) to install a additional wiring and a connector, or the UserTerminal backplate has to be re-fitted/removed.
At the suspicion of unauthorized access or other reasons to lock the running machine, it has to be
locked for starting: See „option 40“ in chapter „option settings“. With option 41 ... 44 you can lock
also separate modes (manual, profile, cardio, test).
Oversize running machines and devices without UserTerminal
The oversize running machines series
h/p/cosmos venus and h/p/cosmos
saturn have an external control unit
with integrated UserTerminal.
It is possible to re-fit lt-models and to
equpip oversize running machines with
an additional UserTerminal at the
handrail.

The automatic mode is for starting a training profile, a heart rate dependant speed control or a test profile.
Caution: The treadmill belt will start moving automatically and the speed and elevation will be changed
automatically after one of the 3 modes (profile, cardio, test) has been started. You and all other users need to get
familiar with the details and risks of these modes (e.g. the max. speed and elevation of these modes) for not facing
the danger of too high speeds and injuries.
Additionally there is the possibility to disable each mode (manual, profile, cardio, test) in the user-option-mode (see
chapter “optional settings”. This can be required in special cases for additional safety or to reduce functions of
more simple operation.
N Automatic operation (mode profiles, cardio, test, remote control via PC and peripheric
devices) is forbidden, if the health and the condition of the test person / patient do not
allow them and a doctor has not authorized these loads. Disregard may cause injuries and
dangerous health problems.
N At automatic operation the test person / patient and supervisory staff have to impropriate
exact knowledge about the expected loads before starting and anticipate an automatic
load alternation (speed, acceleration, decelaration, elevation and STOP) at any time. It is
necessary to meet the appropriate higher and reasonable safety precautions.

Heart rate controlled work load („pulse-control“ cardio-training)
N Pay attention to all safety instructions and warnings in the instruction manual.
N Stop training immediately if feeling sick or dizzy, pain or in case of any other health
problem and see your doctor.
N In the case of detected or suspected interference of the wireless heart rate transmission
do not use the cardio mode.
N The operation of the cardio mode is forbidden, if the health and the condition of the test
person / patient do not allow it and a doctor has not authorized these loads. Disregard may
cause injuries and dangerous health problems.
N At automatic and cardio operation the test person / patient and supervisory staff have to
impropriate exact knowledge about the expected loads before starting and anticipate an
automatic load alternation (speed, acceleration, decelaration, elevation and STOP) at any
time. It is necessary to meet the appropriate higher and reasonable safety precautions.
[5.B9] Cardio mode - Field of application / control
operation
The Cardio Mode controls the running machine so that the heart rate of the subject stays within a predefined zone.
Therefore the subject has to wear a corresponding chest belt.
Adjust the belt length so that the belt fits
tightly but does not confine you. The belt
should not loosen while exercising. Close the
belt with transmitter placed outwards
(POLAR-Logo in right position).
In order to allow an optimal skin contact the
skin should be moist. Contact gel, as used for
ECG, is an excellent solution. Moisten the
two electrodes and the skin with water or
contact gel, which is available at chemistries.
Place the transmitter so that it is right below the pectoral muscle (chest), as is shown in the illustration above. For
ca. 95 ... 98 % of the subjects the "normal" placement of the transmitter belt is recommended.
N The desired max. heart rate (pulse) during the training
N The desired min. heart rate (pulse) during the training
N The max. allowed speed for the cardio mode. (Elevation can be set manually online during the exercise)
The running machine starts with the starting speed. In order to keep the heart rate within the pre-selected heart
rate zone, the machine increases or decreases the speed automatically if necessary.
The speed will not exceed the max. defined speed. If the max. speed has been obtained and the heart rate of the
subject is still below the target zone, the elevation will be increased to achieve the right target hart rate of the
subject. On the other hand, if the max. Heart-Rate has been reached in order to give the subject relief, first the
elevation and then the speed is going to be reduced.
If the running machine does not receive a heart rate signal when starting the cardio mode it will start with the set
starting speed and does not alter this speed. Every 30 seconds a warning signal is audible, after 1 minute the
running machine cancels the mode (at MCU5 firmware-versions < V1.03.1 or MCU4 firmware-versions < V4.04.2
the running machine cancels after 2 minutes). If the heart rate signal fails during the operation in the cardio mode
the running machine will run in the actual set speed and angle of inclination. In this case beeper allert signal will be
activated every 30 seconds. The running machine will run down speed to 2 km/h and the mode will be terminated
after 1 minute (at MCU5 firmware-versions < V1.03.1 or MCU4 firmware-versions < V4.04.2 the running machine
chancels after 2 minutes).
max. speed (km/h) Control
2 ... max. Speed control first. After having reached the speed, which is maximally
allowed, the elevation will be controlled.
Examples:
a) Set max. speed 4.0 km/h if you want the subject only to walk and to control the load by means of elevation.
b) Set max. speed 20.0 km/h if you want the subject to control the load by means of speed only without elevation.

[5.B12] Test mode and free program profiles – General notes
N Some test profiles (e.g. CONCONI-test, STEP-test, COOPER-test, etc.) are endurance tests (max. load and
max. heart rate tests) and should only be performed after consultation of a medical doctor and under
supervision of trained staff.
N Proper warm-up and cool-down periods have to be considered.
N Use a safety harness with a safe chest belt system (optional equipment) for the subject when making max.
load and max. heart rate tests.
[5.B13] Test profiles / Field of application
Test mode can perform several different (pre-defined and self defined) tests. Information about the tests can be
found in the enclosure. The UKK walk test (No 1) is the only test where the running machine makes a calculation
and an evaluation (Fitness Index). All other test profiles only make the load control. There is no automatic
evaluation done by the running machine. The evaluation has to be done by host equipment (e.g. ECG,
Ergospirometry, etc.) or external PC Software (e.g. POLAR Analysis Software).

In an already pre-defined step-test it is possible, to set the preprogrammed pause-times individually during the test, i.e. the
pause can be prolonged or ended immediately.
End pause manually:
Once the test profile has reached the pause mode and the
running belt has come to halt, you can select the next program
step immediately with START – either with warning sound
signals at the beginning by pressing START once or without by
pressing START twice. This is done independently of the predefined pause-times and has no influence on the following run
of the program, i.e. the following program steps remain
unaffected. By pressing the START button the next speed
step scheduled is started. The pause can also be ended with
the „+“ button. In this case the speed set depends on the point
of release of the „+“ button.
Prolong pause:
Once the test profile has reached the pause mode and the
running belt has come to halt, it is possible to freeze pause
with the „-“ button.

The Gardner Testprotocol serves for evaluation of
the maximum walking distance of Peripheral
Arterial Disease Patients with Intermittent

The test has to be performed under permanent
supervision of a doctor and a fall prevention
system (e.g. safety arch with chest belt) has to be
used.
The patient first stands on the side-footboards of
the running machine and not on the belt. Start test

[5.B15] The UKK 2 km walk test
The UKK 2km walk test (UKK are the initials for Urho Kaleka Kekkonen, founder of the UKK Institute in
Tampere/Finland) makes it possible under certain assumptions to determine the approximately max. cardio
respiratory efficiency (VO
max) and therefore the physical condition of the subject. On the basis of this result a
2
fitness-index is calculated with the help of a complex formula taking age, height, weight, test duration and average
heart-rate into consideration, which tells us whether the physical condition of the subject is above or below
average. The value of 100 as the average serves as the base. If somebody's index-value is 90 then his physical
condition is slightly below average. An index-value of 110 on the other hand would be above average.
The test explains itself by its name. In order to perform the test after having done some warming up and some
stretching walk for 2 km as fast as possible (do not run). It is important to keep the walking speed as high as is
needed for the subject to achieve 80% of their max. heart rate ( 220 – age). The test duration and heart rate are
measured immediately after finishing the 2 km distance. At h/p/cosmos devices the heart rate is measured every
500m due to higher accuracy. For calculating the index value the average value of the 4 measured values is used.
As soon as the 2 km distance has been absolved the speed gets reduced to half the speed at the end of the test
(2000 m). The running machine operates as described under point "Manual-Mode" (the UP/DOWN-keys are in
operation again) with one exception: The display INDEX instead of indicating the wattage and energy
consumption, indicates the test result (calculation following). The LED INDEX is flashing (top right hand side).

The test-result is the index-value which is calculated as follows (according to sex):
Men INDEX VALUE = 420 + A x 0.2 – (T x 0.19338 + HR x 0.56 + [W : (H
Women INDEX VALUE = 304 + A x 0.4 – (T x 0.1417 + HR x 0.32 + [W : (H
Explanation
A (Age) = Age in years
HR (Heart Rate) = average heart rate during the test in bpm
T (Time) = needed for 2 km in seconds
W (Weight) = Weight in kg
H (Height) = Height in cm
Example: Age: 50 years / Weight: 105 kg / Height: 188 cm
Duration of test: 17:34 = 1054 seconds
Heart rate 500m = 158. 1000m = 156. 1500m = 160 and 2000m = 155
Average (158+156+160+155) : 4 = 157 bpm
Index value = 420+50x0.2–(1054x0.19338+157x0.56+(105:(1.88
2
)x2.6)) =
420+10-(203.8+87.9+29.7x2.6)=430–368.9 = _61_
An index-value of less than 70 is a result quite below average (average=100). Conclusion: Our subject is in need
of some endurance training. Basically the test is suitable for all physically healthy persons between the age of 20
and 65. The results will be less accurate with people who are overweight. Athletes usually do not reach the
required heart rate when performing the test. The results will also be less accurate with elderly people.
Original the UKK walk test has not been designed for individual tests but for a larger amount of subjects. i.e.
testing of a crowd of people at the same time by sending them off in 1/2 minute intervals on the 2 km-distance
track. Therefore originally the UKK walk test has not been designed as a typical test for the running machine.
Advantages of performing the UKK walk test on the running machine:
N Being able to measure the precise time and distance of the test (it is exactly 2 km)
N Heart-Rate control during the test
N Constant supervision of the subject by a doctor or trainer possible
N Automatic display of the fitness-index and documentation with the help of either a printer or PC-connection
A serial printer or a PCL-printer with parallel/centronics plug und converter [cos10056] can be connected directly to
the h/p/cosmos running machine. Following data can be printed after the UKK walk test even without using any
PC: UKK fitness index, date, time, test duriation, distance, elevation, heart rate, age, sex, body-mass-index (BMI).
See also chapter optional equipment / accessories (interface / printer) in this manual.
Attention: Before start of the UKK walk test it is important to do some warm up exercise and you must have
already found your personal maximum walk-speed.
Initiation: running machine is in standby mode. ~LED mode is flashing.

OP13 Activating and de-activating motor break The motor break prevents the running belt from manual moving (for
[6.B1]
example because of the subjects bodyweight) when the speed value is
set to “0”. If the treadmill recognizes a running belt movement it
activates the motor break for 10 seconds.
.
Remark:
The motor break is only working at running machines with integrated
speed measurement. The speed sensor must be switched on
(OP11=1). If the running machine is not equipped with speed
measuring system this could be retrofitted easily.
To activate the motor break it is necessary to additionally change
some parameters at the frequency inverter. Ask the service
department of h/p/cosmos sports & medical gmbh for detailed
instruction.
Attention!
If the device is switched off or disconnected from
the power supply the motor break is not working!
After 10 seconds of operation of the motor break,
the break is released automatically and is only
activated again after a belt movement. A short jerk
may occure during reactivation.

Normally the speed calibration values are set by selecting the correct
device type (administrator option number 3). Only for special speed
and special models the speed calibration values have to be changed. If
you change the speed calibration value, please also pay attention to
the correct settings in option number 5 (firmware speed limit), number
11 (speed measurement; must be switched on) and option number 48
(Frequency inverter speed limit) of the administrator mode. To change
the speed calibration value please use the + and – buttons. For quick
movements between standard values, please use the UP- and DOWNbuttons.
If the speed measurement is switched off in OP11, then OP34 will only
report internal program absolutes. In the other case following values
are stored:
The distance interval for indication of "OIL" service required can be
adjusted by means of option 35.
Standard = 1000 km for treadmills, 100 km for ladder-ergometers. OIL

h/p/cosmos recommends regular maintenance (interior cleansing,
checking drive belts, etc.) carried out by an authorized technician at
least every 5.000 km (for ladder ergometers: 500 km). For this reason
every 5.000 km (500 km) the error message "E 02" "HELP" is
displayed. For detailed information, descriptions and specifications
about maintenance, please contact the h/p/cosmos service

The maximum frequency inverter speed is achieved, if the MCU (within
UserTerminal) sets the control voltage (analogue voltage for frequency
inverter) at 10 volt, that is at maximum frequency inverter frequency.
The maximum speed during maximum frequency inverter frequency is
going to be set basically with the input of the correct device type at
option number 3 at the administrator level. Option 48 is necessary at
manual speed calibration or special speed transformation or drive
motors (special speeds) only.
When changing option 48, always pay attention to the correct setting of
the options number 5 (maximum speed), number 11 (speed
measurement; has to be switched on) and number 34 (speed
calibration value).
Examples for the different special speeds and the appropriate
maximum inverter frequencies are to be found in list B3: List of device
types.
Procedure
N Make sure that the correct device type is set at administrator
option 3.
N Go to administrator option 5 and set maximum possible speed.
N Control at the manual mode the device with the key "+" to the
maximum possible speed.
N Check the analogue voltage at the MCU-FU-control with a
voltmeter: it has to be 10 volt. Note down the voltage at the
service report! (not possible with digital control via RS485)
N Read off the speed and write down the value at the h/p/cosmos
service report: OP 48: _____ km/h
N Stop the running belt with the STOP key.
N Go to administrator OPTION 48 and input the before measured
value in km/h (maximum possible speed at full FU-activation).
N Go again to administrator OPTION 05 and allow the desired /
appropriate maximum speed.
Info 1: If no speed scan (speed sensor) has to be set under option 11,
the speed calibration value will be calculated automatically with option
48.
Info 2: Even if no speed scan is set, the speed calibration value has an
internal significance. In that case the scanning impulses (actual
impulse) are deduced or simulated directly from the analogue voltage
and not measured via the speed sensor input.

secured against operation and the supplier and authorized service personnel has to be informed
in writing.
N Disregard of warnings, disregard of intended and forbidden use, safety precautions and also
unauthorized or lack of maintenance and/or regular safety checks may lead to injuries or death
and/or can damage the device and will result in loss of any liability and warranty.
N Before intervening in the device for safety reasons switch the running machine off and pull the
mains plug out.
N During all maintenance works and safety tests make sure that no third parties are directly or
indirectly in contact with the device under test and/or the technician performing the test. Keep a
safety area of 2 m radius clear.
Some running machine models are not equipped with an UserTerminal, so there is no keyboard or display available on these
running machines. It is only possible to control these running machines via interface. With this interface you can use different
external equipment, e.g. ECG, Ergospirometrie, PC with h/p/cosmos software h/p/cosmos para graphics

. You can find important safety precautions and a complete list of all compatible external equipment in the chapter
“compatibility RS232 interface” and in the internet www.coscom.org.
For these models an additional keyboard or an external UserTerminal for remote control via RS232 is available as an option.
If using an additional keyboard you might need to install additional wiring and a connector depending on the model.

[7.C] Regular inspections/examinations
For use in sports and medical areas as well as for private, public and military
applications refer to the date at the inspection sticker at your device.
To keep the condition of the device in due order, examinations have to be performed
repeatedly according to the local laws and requirements in your country (e.g. in
Germany based on BGV A3, regulations for prevention of accidents as well as safety
requirement inspections in accordance with MDD Medical Device Directive, etc.).
For h/p/cosmos sports and medical running machines and ladder ergometers a maintenance interval respectively
technical safety checks of one year has been set. These examinations are only to be performed by trained and
authorized electric technicians.
The main inspection sticker on the device (e.g. running machine) certifies also the inspection of the optional equipment
and the accessories. However, inspection intervals for optional equipment and accessories (e.g. rope of h/p/cosmos
airwalk unweighting system, chest belt for safety harness, compressors, etc.) can deviate significantly from inspection
intervals of the main device. Read respective manuals for details.
For all required measurements and control steps consider also local requirements in your country and see
detailed instruction and protocol form order no. [cos11690xx].
Additionally to local requirements following examinations are to be performed and are to be documented in the detailed
instruction and protocol form order no. [cos11690xx]:
[7.C1] Visual inspections
N Visual inspection for damages at device and complete accessories. Internal space, engine compartment,
connecting lead and the right position of the tensile relief and plug, ground wire connections, etc.
N Visual inspection of mechanics and wearing parts: driving belt, tension roller, running belt, lifting element with
fixing bolts, welding seams at the frame, tight fitting of all screws and nuts. Pay attention to the appropriate
maintenance list.
