2.2 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
110 V UNITS
All Matrix 3x, 5x, 7xe and 7xi 110 V bikes 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 bikes 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.
North American power cord plugs shown.
Depending on your country, the plug type may vary.
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 3x, 5x and 7xe bikes 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 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.
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.
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 configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product. An RG6 coaxial cable with ‘F Type’ compression fittings
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 fittings will need to be
connected between the video source and each add-on digital TV unit.
BATTERY CHARGING (3X AND 5X)
The bike saves its batter charge by moving into a shutdown mode whenever PEDAL FASTER appears on the display. If the user does not
maintain a pedal rate of 40 RPM or higher, a 30 second shutdown process begins. When the battery voltage is low, LOW BATTERY appears
on the display. This means it is time to recharge the battery. If the battery must be charged, use the optional power adapter charging unit. The
charger should be connected to the bike for a minimum of eight hours to ensure a thorough charge.

CHAPTER 8: TROUBLESHOOTING
8.11 TROUBLESHOOTING - HEART RATE ISSUES
HEART RATE FUNCTION DOES NOT WORK OR IS READING INCORRECTLY
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
1) The HR grips are not hooked up correctly.
2) The HR grip wiring is damaged.
3) The console or HR board is not properly grounded.
4) The console, HR board, or wiring between are bad.
SOLUTION:
1) Perform a DC Voltage test on the HR grips.
a. With one prong of a multi meter on each of the plates on one side of the HR grip set (Figure A), a voltage reading of between .5 and 2.0
should be seen. If the reading is correct, the issue is not with the HR grips or grip wiring.
b. If the reading is not correct, remove the screws holding the halves of the HR grip together and check the connection of the wiring to the
grips (Figure B).
2) Remove the console from the unit and verify continuity of the HR grip wiring. With a multi meter set for ohms, place one prong on the HR grip
wiring coming up the console mast (Figure C), and the other on the appropriate plate.
a. An ohm reading of less than 1 should be received. If it is higher, replace the HR grip wiring.
3) Perform a continuity check on the console (See Service Bulletin - Continuity Test on Matrix Bikes).
a. Once the console continuity is confirmed, perform a continuity check on the HR board ground wire. With a multi meter set for ohms, place
one prong on the HR board ground wire (Figure D), and the other on the console ground wire. An ohm reading of less than 1 should be received.
If it is higher, replace the HR board.
4) If all the troubleshooting listed above has been performed, and the unit still has HR issues, replace the HR board.
a. If the HR board does not resolve the issue, replace the console.

CHAPTER 8: TROUBLESHOOTING
8.12 TROUBLESHOOTING - NO POWER TO THE CONSOLE
POWER SWITCH IS ON, BUT THE CONSOLE HAS NO DISPLAY
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
1) The unit is not getting power from the outlet.
2) The LCB is not getting power from the power receptacle.
3 & 4) The LCB LEDs are lit, but there is no power to the console.
SOLUTION:
1) Verify power at the outlet. If the outlet is not outputting 120VAC, check the fitness room power.
2) Remove the front disk and check to see if LED1 is lit on the LCB (Figure A).
a. If it is not lit, verify power at the outlet. if the outlet is not outputting 120V power, check the fitness room power.
b. If LED9 is still not lit, check the incoming AC power to the LCB. If the incoming power is not correct, replace the power cord.
c. Replace the LCB if all power components are OK and there are AC volts to the LCB.
3 & 4) Remove the front disk and check to see if LED1 is lit on the LCB.
a. If LED9 is lit, check the connection of the console cable.
b. If the console cable is connected properly, LED2 on the control board should be lit (Figure B). If it is not lit, check voltage on the console
cable. Measure voltage across pins 1 and 3 of the cable, it should show around 12V. Replace the console cable if this reading is off.
c. If LED2 on the control board is lit, but there is still no power to the console, replace the console.

10.4 LEVELING THE BIKE
STABILIZING THE MATRIX R5X-05 BIKE
After positioning the bike in its intended location, check its stability by attempting to shake it side to side. Shaking or wobbling indicates that
your bike needs to be leveled. Determine which leveler is not resting completely on the floor. Rotate the left or right foot pad, and repeat the
adjustment as necessary until the bike is stable.
