DEDICATED CIRCUIT AND ELECTRICAL INFO
A “Dedicated Circuit” means that each outlet you plug into should not have
anything else running on that same circuit. The easiest way to verify this is
to locate the main circuit breaker box, and turn off the breaker(s) one at a
time. Once a breaker has been turned off, the only thing that should not have
power to it are the units in question. No lamps, vending machines, fans, sound
systems, or any other item should lose power when you perform this test.
Non-looped (isolated) neutral/grounding means that each circuit must have an individual
neutral/ground connection coming from it, and terminating at an approved earth
ground. You cannot “jumper” a single neutral/ground from one circuit to the next.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
For your safety and to ensure good unit performance, the ground on this circuit must
be non-looped (isolated). Please refer to NEC article 210-21 and 210-23. Any alterations
to the standard power cord provided could void all warranties of this product.
The A3x, E3x, ALB3x, A5x, E5x, ALB5x, A7xe, E7xe and ALB7xe are designed to
be self powered and do not require an external power supply source to operate.
Without an external power supply, the console’s start-up time may be delayed.
Add-on TV’s and other console accessories will increase the time needed for
start-up. An external power supply will ensure power is provided to the console
at all times and is recommended when add-on accessories are used.
For units with an integrated TV (like the 7xe and 7xi), the TV power requirements are
included in the unit. An RG6 coaxial cable with ‘F Type’ compression ttings on each
end will need to be connected to the cardio unit and the video source. Additional
power requirements are not needed for the add-on digital TV (3x and 5x). For units
with an add-on PCTV (3x and 5x), the TV power requirements are separate.
NOTE: All units with Virtual Active™ must be powered.
110 V UNITS
All Matrix 3x, 5x, 7xe and 7xi 110 V Suspension Elliptical Trainers and Ascent Trainers
require the use of a 100-125 V, 60 Hz and a 15 A “Dedicated Circuit”, with a non-looped
(isolated) neutral/ground for power. This outlet should be a NEMA 5-15R and have
the same conguration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product.
Suspension Elliptical Trainers can be daisy-chained together with up to 4 units per 15
A dedicated circuit. Ascent Trainers can be daisy-chained together with up to 3 units
per dedicated 15 A circuit. Matrix daisy-chain cord adapters are sold separately.
110 NEMA 5-15P
PLUG
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The unit must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk
of electric shock. The unit is equipped with a cord having an equipmentgrounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances. If the user does not follow these
grounding instructions, the user could void the Matrix limited warranty.
ADDITIONAL ELECTRICAL INFO
In addition to the dedicated circuit requirement, the proper gauge wire
must be used from the circuit breaker box, to each outlet that will have
the maximum number of units running off of it. If the distance from the
circuit breaker box to each outlet, is 100 ft (30.5 m) or less, then 12 gauge
wire should be used. For distances greater than 100 ft (30.5 m) from the
circuit breaker box to the outlet, a 10 gauge wire should be used.
ENERGY SAVING / LOW-POWER MODE
All units are congured with the ability to enter into an energy saving / lowpower mode when the unit has not been in use for a specied period of
time. Additional time may be required to fully reactivate this unit once it has
entered the low-power mode. This energy saving feature may be enabled
or disabled from within the ‘Manager Mode’ or ‘Engineering Mode.’
ADD-ON PCTV (3X AND 5X)
A 15 A or 20 A “Dedicated Circuit” with a non-looped (isolated) neutral/
ground is required. Each PCTV requires at least 1.2 A of current. No more
than 12 PCTVs should be used for each 15 A circuit and no more than 16
PCTVs should be used for each 20 A circuit. The power outlet should have
the same conguration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this
product. An RG6 coaxial cable with ‘F Type’ compression ttings will need
to be connected between the video source and each add-on PCTV unit.
ADD-ON DIGITAL TV (3x and 5x)
Additional power requirements are not needed for the add-on digital TV.
An RG6 coaxial cable with ‘F Type’ compression ttings will need to be
connected between the video source and each add-on digital TV unit.
220 V UNITS
All Matrix 3x, 5x, 7xe and 7xi 220 V Suspension Elliptical Trainers and Ascent Trainers
require the use of a 216-250 V, 50 Hz and a 15 A “Dedicated Circuit”, with a non-looped
(isolated) neutral/ground for power. This outlet should be a NEMA 6-15R and have
the same conguration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product.
Suspension Elliptical Trainers can be daisy-chained together with up to 4 units per 15
A dedicated circuit. Ascent Trainers can be daisy-chained together with up to 3 units
per dedicated 15 A circuit. Matrix daisy-chain cord adapters are sold separately.

appears damaged, or has been immersed in water. Contact Customer Tech Support for replacement or repair.
Failure to follow these specications can cause damage to your product and can void the warranty:
• All video and power outlets must be functional the day of delivery / assembly of the product. The
client is responsible for any additional installation charges associated with return visits.
• Electrical supply may uctuate in your area. To ensure stable performance of the product, use the proper gauge wire.
UNPACKING

on a level at surface. It is recommended that you place a protective
covering on your oor. Never open box when it is on its side.
IMPORTANT NOTES
During each assembly step, ensure that ALL nuts and
bolts are in place and partially threaded.
Several parts have been pre-lubricated to aid in assembly and usage. Please do not wipe
this off. If you have diculty, a light application of lithium grease is recommended.
WARNING!
There are several areas during the assembly process that special attention must be
paid. It is very important to follow the assembly instructions correctly and to make
sure all parts are rmly tightened. If the assembly instructions are not followed
correctly, the equipment could have parts that are not tightened and will seem
loose and may cause irritating noises. To prevent damage to the equipment, the
assembly instructions must be reviewed and corrective actions should be taken.
