CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This Climb Mill is intended for commercial use. To ensure your safety
and protect the equipment, read all instructions before operating the
MATRIX Climb Mill.
When using an electrical product, basic precautions should always be
followed including the following:
• Anapplianceshouldneverbeleftunattendedwhenplugged
in. Unplugtheunitfromtheoutletwhennotinuseandbefore
puttingonortakingoffanyparts.
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 21021 and 210-23. Any alterations to the standard power cord provided could void all warranties of this product.
The 3x, 5x and 7xe
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 fittings 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!
Climbmills are designed to be self-powered and do not require an external power supply source to operate. Without an
110 V UNITS
All Matrix 3x, 5x, 7xe and 7xi 110 V Climbmills 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 configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this
product. These bikes can be daisy-chained together with up to 4 units per 15 A dedicated circuit.
Matrix daisy-chain cord adapters are sold separately.
220 V UNITS
All Matrix 3x, 5x, 7xe and 7xi 220 V Climbmills 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 configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this
product. These bikes can be daisy-chained together with up to 4 units per 15 A dedicated circuit.
Matrix daisy-chain cord adapters are sold separately.
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 equipment-grounding 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 configured with the ability to enter into an energy saving / low-power mode when the unit has not been in use for a specified 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.

FITNESSTEST(WFI) - The WFI (Wellness Fitness Initiative) protocol is a test used by firefighters in a series of intervals lasting a
maximum of 16 minutes, where the speed is increased every minute until the Target Heart Rate is exceeded for 15 seconds. When the test
is complete, the display provides a summary of VO2max, Highest SPM, Elapsed Time, and Target Heart Rate. The test requires constant
monitoring of the user's heart rate, so the use of a telemetric heart rate strap is highly recommended.
CPat
The Candidate Physical Ability Test (CPAT) is a new minimum requirement for the position of Firefighter. The job of a Firefighter is one of
the most physically demanding jobs in North America. Participants wear a 50-pound (22.68-kg) vest to simulate the weight of self-contained
breathing apparatus (SCBA) and firefighter protective clothing. An additional 25 pounds (11.34 kg), using two 12.5-pound (5.67-kg) weights that
simulate a high-rise pack (hose bundle), is added to your shoulders for the stair climb event. The candidate must maintain 60 SPM (steps per
minute) for 3 minutes.
FITNESSTEST(SUBMAXIMAL)- The Submaximal test measures cardiovascular fitness and provides an estimated Sub-maximal
VO2 max result. This assessment is a 4 stage test lasting 3-5 minutes where the speed is increased until your Heart Rate is between 115 - 150
bpm for 2 of the stages. When the test is complete, a Fitness Rating is displayed as High, Good, Average, Fair, or Low along with your age and
VO2 max. The test requires constant monitoring of the user's heart rate, so the use of a telemetric heart rate strap is highly recommended.

HEART RATE ISSUES
1) SYMPTOM:
a. No heart rate.
b. Erratic or consistently high heart rate.
2) SOLUTION:
a. With a multi-meter set for DC Voltage, place one prong of the multi-meter on each of the heart rate plates on the handlebar (Figure A).
A correctly connected HR grip will have a DC Voltage reading of between .5 and 2.0VAC. Repeat this step on both HR grips. If this reading is
correct, skip to Step b. If not continue with Step a.
- Remove the screws holding the 2 halves of the HR grip together (Figure B).
