Procedure 2.1 - 9.41S Diagnostic Program (Units Built Before
July 21, 1997)
The M9.41S diagnostic program cycles through the following modes:
Software Version Mode. Displays the PROM version number.
LED Mode. Illuminates each of the LEDs mounted on the upper PCA.
Lift Mode. Allows you to verify that the lift calibration number increments and decrements as the
INCLINE keys are pressed.
Power Bits Mode. Allows you to verify that the power bits number increments and decrements
as the SPEED keys are pressed.
Note:
When the treadmill is in power bits mode and the SPEED ▲ key is selected, the treadmill speed
will increase twice as fast as it does when the treadmill is in a normal operating mode.
Procedure
1. Plug the power cord into the wall outlet, then turn on the treadmill with the circuit breaker.
b. Press and hold the STOP, SPEED ▼, SPEED ▲ and QUICK START keys
simultaneously.
c. The electronic console displays the version number of the PROM mounted on the
upper PCA. Record the PROM version number.
d. Following the version number, a horizontal line sweeps from top to bottom and then a
vertical line sweeps from right to left.
Note:
The lines check the LEDs mounted on the upper PCA. If the lines are broken when they sweep
across the electronic console, replace the upper PCA.
e. After the LED test, the electronic console displays the potentiometer increment
number.
f. Press the INCLINE keys. Verify that the running bed inclines and declines as the
INCLINE and DECLINE keys are pressed.
g. Watch the electronic console. When the potentiometer increment number is displayed
on the electronic console, enter power bit mode by starting the running belt.
Note:
When the running belt is started, the number of power bits will be displayed. Power bits represent
9.41S, 9.41Si Treadmill
Page 5
the amount of power applied to the drive motor. Power bits is the product of selected speed and
applied load.
h. Press the SPEED ▲ and ▼ keys. Verify that the power bits number increments and
decrements as the SPEED keys are pressed.
i. Press STOP to return to the Enter Your Weight banner.
j. Turn off the treadmill with the circuit breaker, then unplug the treadmill from the wall
outlet.

Procedure 2.2 - 9.41S & 9.41Si Diagnostic Program
(Units Built After July 20, 1997)
Units built after July 20, 1997 used the standard access codes. The keys on the display are
hypothetically numbered for 1 to 7 from left to right. Therefore, ENTER would be key 1, INCLINE
▼ would be key 2, etc. (see Diagram 2.1) or on a 9.41Si INCLINE ▲ wou ld be key 1, INCLINE
▼ would be key 2, etc. (see Diagram 2.2).
Placing the 9.41S or 9.41Si Treadmill in diagnostic mode causes the software to perform the
following operations:
a. Test the LED’s mounted on the upper PCA;
b. Provide the option of calibrating the lift system;
c. Display the drive motor power bits;
d. Display and test the heart rate function;
e. Display the error code log;
f. Provide a method of checking the operation of the keys on the electronic console;
g. Test the circuit breaker trip function.
1. Plug the power cord into the wall outlet, then turn on the treadmill with the circuit breaker.
b. Press keys RESET,5,1,7,6,5,7,6,1, sequentially.
c. Following the version number, a horizontal line sweeps from top to bottom and then a
vertical line sweeps from right to left.
Note:
The lines check the LEDs mounted on the upper PCA. If the lines are broken when they sweep
across the electronic console, replace the upper PCA.
d. After the LED test, the electronic console displays the potentiometer increment
number.
e. Press the INCLINE keys. Verify that the running bed inclines and declines as the
INCLINE and DECLINE keys are pressed.
f. Watch the electronic console. When the potentiometer increment number is displayed
on the electronic console, enter power bit mode by starting the running belt.

Note:
When the running belt is started, the number of power bits will be displayed. Power bits represent
the amount of power applied to the drive motor. Power bits are product of selected speed and
applied load.
g. Press the SPEED ▲ and ▼ keys. Verify that the power bits number increments and
decrements as the SPEED keys are pressed.
h. Press the STOP key to exit the power bits mode and enter the heart rate mode.
i. If the heart rate option has been installed, you may test the heart rate function using a
chest strap transmitter or test transmitter.
j. Press the ENTER key to enter the error code log. The error code log will display the
last 10 errors that occurred. Error 1 will be the most recent error and error 10 will be the
oldest error. If more than 10 errors occur, the most recent error will be inserted in position 1
and all other errors will be pushed down one position. The error that was in th e 10th position
will be lost. If you wish to clear the error code log, press the QUICK START and STOP keys,
simultaneously.
k. Press the ENTER key to exit the error code log and enter the key pad test.
l. Press each key one at a time the display will confirm the key that was pressed. Press
the INCLINE
▼ and SPEED ▲ keys, simultaneously to exit the keypad test.
m. The next test is the circuit breaker test. Follow the instructions on the display to cause
either a test trip of the treadmill circuit breaker or exit the diagnostics program.

July 21, 1997)
This procedure allows you to display the number of miles logged on the treadmill.
Procedure
1. Plug the power cord into the wall outlet, then turn on the treadmill with the circuit breaker.
b. With the Enter Your Weight banner scrolling, press the STOP key, the SPEED ▼ key,
and then the SPEED ▲ key sequentially.
c. The console displays the number of miles logged on the treadmill.

Procedure 2.4 - Displaying the Odometer (Units Built After
July 20, 1997)
The diagnostic program used prior to July 21, 1997 and the diagnostic program used after July
20, 1997 are essentially the same except that the key strokes used to access the programs are
different. Units built after July 20, 1997 used the standard access codes. The keys on the display
are hypothetically numbered for 1 to 7 from left to right. Therefore, ENTER would be key 1,
INCLINE
▼ would be key 2, etc. (see Diagram 2.1) or on a 9.41Si INCLINE ▲ would be key 1,
INCLINE
▼ would be key 2, etc. (see Diagram 2.2).
This procedure allows you to display the number of miles logged on the treadmill.
Procedure
1. Plug the power cord into the wall outlet, then turn on the treadmill with the circuit breaker
b. Press keys RESET,6,5, sequentially.
c. The software version will be displayed. Press the ENTER key to continue.
d. The console displays the number of miles logged on the treadmill.
e. Turn off the treadmill with the circuit breaker, then unplug the treadmill from the wall
outlet.

Procedure 2.5 - Selecting U. S. Standard or Metric Units (Units
Built Before July 21, 1997)
Selecting United States standard units causes information to be displayed in feet, miles and
pounds. Information is displayed in meters, kilometers and kilograms if metric units are selected.
After you have selected a measurement standard, the software compiles and records workout
information in the units of the measurement standard selected. Changing to the alternate
measurement standard after your workout has started will cause invalid data to be displayed. For
this reason, change the measurement standard only after turning ON the treadmill.
Procedure
1. Plug the power cord into the wall outlet, then turn on the treadmill with the circuit breaker.
b. With the Enter Your Weight banner scrolling, press and hold the SPEED ▲ and QUICK
START keys simultaneously until the Press ▲ for MPH or ▼ for KPH message scrolls
across the screen.
c. Use the SPEED ▲ or SPEED ▼ key to select the measurement standard.
Note:
When the treadmill is turned off or unplugged it will remember the last measurement standard
selected.
