Chapter 1

Getting Started

The P10 console offers administrators the ability to set default values that meet their specific needs. These values include items like language, units of measure, and setting a maximum

Activating the Console for Self-Powered Equipment

allowed workout time for each piece of equipment.

Precor equipment is either self-powered or externally powered using an optional power adapter. Self-powered equipment requires the user exercise to initialize the console. This section provides more detail about powering equipment.

Activating the Console for Self-Powered Equipment

On self-powered equipment, when a user starts exercising, the console initializes and displays the Welcome banner. A minimum rate of motion must be maintained for the Welcome banner to appear. The words PEDAL FASTER (or the equivalent message depending on the equipment type) appear in the display when the rate of motion drops below the minimum requirements.

The equipment saves its battery charge by moving into a shutdown mode. If the user does not maintain the minimum rate of motion, a 30-second shutdown process begins.

In this mode, the console displays a countdown indicator and ignores all keypresses. If no movement is detected or the rate of motion remains below the minimum, the indicator changes as the countdown continues.

Note: The user can resume exercising before the countdown period elapses and the workout will continue from the point at which it was paused.

16 Operating and Maintaining the P10 Console

Optional Use of the Power Adapter

An optional AC power adapter provides sustained power to the equipment. This adapter allows you to change settings without having to pedal the equipment. To purchase the power adapter, contact your dealer.

If you purchase the optional power adapter, you must also purchase the internal cable kit. The kit supplies the cable, bracket, and fasteners that connect the power adapter to the lower electronics board.

CAUTION: The internal cable kit must be installed by authorized service personnel. Do not attempt installation on your own as you could void the Precor Limited Warranty. For more information, refer to Obtaining Service.

Important: If this equipment includes a P80 console, the optional power adapter and the internal cable kit must still be installed to provide continuous power to the base unit and support its internal battery.

Once the internal cable kit is installed, you can plug the optional power adapter into the equipment. Plug the opposite end into the appropriate power source for your equipment (120 V or 240 V). Review the safety instructions found at the beginning of this manual before using the power adapter.

CAUTION: When the optional power adapter is in use, make sure that the power supply cord does not create a safety hazard. Keep it out of the way of traffic and moving parts. If the power supply cord or power conversion module is damaged, it must be replaced.

The control console functions differently when the power adapter is connected. Because the power adapter provides a constant source of power, a user can pause for brief periods without initiating shutdown procedures. When the pause time limit expires and the user has not resumed exercising, the console returns to the Welcome screen. The default pause time is 30 seconds for all fitness equipment. Refer to the manual for your control console for instructions on setting or changing the pause time limit.

Introducing Users to the P10 Console

CAUTION: Before beginning any fitness program, see your physician for a thorough physical examination. Seek advice from your physician to learn the target heart rate appropriate for your fitness level.

The P10 console offers an easy-to-follow display and multiple workouts to help people meet their exercise needs.

Important: Please review the following sections in this guide with your users before allowing them to use the fitness equipment:

 Important Safety Instructions  Getting Started  Using the Safety Clip (for treadmill only)

Using the Touch Heart Rate Feature

Note: Touch heart rate performance may vary based on a user’s physiology, fitness level, age, and other factors. You may experience an erratic readout if your hands are dry, dirty, or oily, or if the skin on your palms is especially thick. Wearing hand lotion can also cause an erratic readout. In addition, make sure that the sensors are clean to ensure proper contact can be maintained.

To use the touch heart rate feature, place the palm of your hands directly on the metal heart rate sensors on the equipment’s handlebars. To ensure an accurate heart rate readout, make sure you follow these tips:

 Both hands must grip the sensors for your heart rate to

register.

 It takes a number of consecutive heartbeats (15-20

seconds) for your heart rate to register.

30 Operating and Maintaining the P10 Console

 When gripping the sensors, do not grip tightly. Keep a

loose, cupping hold. Holding the grips tightly can affect the reading.

 As you work out, your perspiration will help transmit your

heart rate signal. If you have difficulty using the handheld grips to determine your heart rate, try the sensors again later in the workout to see if you can obtain a heart rate signal.

 If the touch heart rate feature does not work for you,

Precor recommends that you use a chest transmitter strap.

Figure 5: Heart rate target zones

CAUTION: Your heart rate should never exceed 85% of your maximum aerobic heart rate. Your maximum heart rate is equal to 220 minus your age.

Introducing Users to the P10 Console 31

WARNING

Using a Chest Strap Transmitter

Signals used by the chest strap transmitter (or heart rate strap) may interfere with pacemakers or other implanted devices. Consult your physician and the manufacturers of your chest strap transmitter and implanted device before using a chest strap transmitter.

Wearing a chest strap transmitter during your workout provides steady heart rate information. For the equipment to detect your heart rate, you must grip the touch heart rate sensors or wear a chest strap transmitter while exercising. In the presence of both touch and wireless data, the touch data takes precedence and will display.

Note: To receive an accurate reading, the strap needs to be in direct contact with the skin on the lower sternum (just below the bust line for women).

To use a chest strap transmitter:

1. Carefully dampen the back of the strap with tap water.

Important: Do not use deionized water. It does not have the proper minerals and salts to conduct electrical impulses.

2. Adjust the strap and fasten it around your chest. The

strap should feel snug, not restrictive.

3. Make sure that the chest strap is right-side-up, lies

horizontally across, and is centered in the middle of your chest.

4. Test the chest strap placement by checking the heart rate

function on the equipment. If a heart rate is registering, your chest strap placement is correct. If the equipment does not register a heart rate, readjust the strap and recheck the heart rate function.

34 Operating and Maintaining the P10 Console

Treadmill Auto Stop™ (Automatic Stop) Function

Important: The default setting for this feature is ON. An administrator can turn off this feature in the System Settings; however, Precor recommends it remain ON.

The Auto Stop™ (Automatic Stop) feature is designed to bring the treadmill to a gradual stop when it is not in use. This might occur if a user steps off the treadmill before the end of a workout and leaves the treadmill running.

Sixty seconds after a treadmill workout starts or resumes, the equipment begins Auto Stop monitoring. If a user is detected, then no message appears, and the selected workout continues.

If no user is detected after an additional 30 seconds, the console displays the message NO USER DETECTED, STOPPING IN 10 SECONDS as notification of the pending stop. During the display of this message, a ten second countdown begins. If a user does not override the countdown, the belt comes to a gradual stop after the countdown is complete.

Note: Users weighing more than 90 pounds (41 kg) are detected within the speed and position limits of the feature. Users weighing 50 pounds (22.7 kg) to 89 pounds (40.5 kg) may not be detected depending on their speed and location. Always be aware of and follow the console’s instructions for proper operation.

Starting a Workout

CAUTION: If you are using a treadmill, be sure to attach the security clip to your clothing before starting your workout.

The equipment is in the Welcome state when the words

SELECT A WORKOUT OR PRESS QUICKSTART TO BEGIN

scroll across the scrolling text display.

If the equipment is connected to CSAFE, the words SELECT A WORKOUT, PRESS QUICKSTART, OR ENTER TO BEGIN scroll across the text display.

Chapter 4

If anything else appears on the screen, press Pause to display the Welcome banner.

From this screen, there are two ways to begin a workout:

 Press Quick Start™.

This action launches the Manual program. Calculations, such as calories used, are based on a 150-lb (68 kg), 35-year old person.

 Press one of the preset workouts.

When a user reaches the club time limit during a workout, the workout limit in minutes appears before the words CLUB TIME LIMIT REACHED, WORKOUT ENDING, appear in the text display.

36 Operating and Maintaining the P10 Console

Starting a Preset Programmed Workout

Preset workouts are a great way to tailor your workouts to your fitness goals, stay challenged, and add variety to your sessions. Most P10 equipment contains multiple preset workouts. These workouts include:

 Manual  Heart Rate  Interval  Weight Loss  Variety  Performance

Pausing and Resuming an Exercise Session

When you interrupt a workout, the equipment responds in one of two ways, depending on how it is powered.

Paused (Externally Powered Equipment)

When the session is paused, the belt speed is slowly reduced to zero, or the resistance is slowly reduced to the minimum. The lift motor is turned off leaving the incline or crossramp at its current position. Data entry is canceled.

When you press Pause on all non-treadmill equipment, it displays the summary screen with your workout metrics. After displaying the summary, it returns to the Welcome screen.

Starting a Workout 37

Pending Shutdown (Self-Powered Equipment)

On self-powered machines, the paused state is equivalent to the pending shutdown state. When you stop working out, the equipment begins a 30 second countdown.

The accumulated metrics (e.g., time, strides, distance, calories) hold their current values and do not change. Data entry may not be started.

To restart the program, begin working out again. The resistance is reset to what it was when the program was paused.

If the equipment remains inactive for more than 30 seconds, the power is lost and the equipment bypasses the workout summary screen.

Three different types of metrics are captured during a workout.

Controlled Metrics can be set and changed. They include:

 Resistance Level (AMT, EFX, bike)  Speed (treadmill)  Incline (treadmill, EFX)  Crossramp (EFX)

Current Performance Metrics describe the intensity of a workout in real time. They include:

 Pace (treadmill)  Heart Rate  Speed (bike)  Revolutions/Minute (bike)  Strides/Minute (AMT, EFX)  Watts (bike)

Accumulated Metrics describe the overall performance throughout the entire exercise session. They include:

 Time Elapsed  Time Remaining  Distance  Calories  Time (bike)  Total Strides (EFX)  Average Speed (treadmill)

38 Operating and Maintaining the P10 Console

Ending a Session

Cooling down is an important aspect of your workout because it helps reduce muscle stiffness and soreness by transporting excess lactic acid out of the working muscles. In addition, a three to five minute cool down allows your heart rate to return to its normal, resting state.

At the end of your workout, a Summary screen displays your average heart rate during your workout and your accumulated workout metrics.

If you performed a fitness test exercise program, an initial message presents a fitness score.

The next two messages display the user’s average and maximum heart rate during the session. These messages are only displayed if heart rate data was acquired during the session, i.e., a valid heart rate number was displayed at least once during the session.

The summary state times out in two minutes, causing a return to the Welcome banner. If the machine is in a CSAFE Finished state then the summary state must last for at least the CSAFE timeout value, typically 10 seconds or less. If it has not lasted that long, then before returning to the Welcome banner, the word RESETTING appears until the CSAFE finished state ends.

DANGER

Maintenance

To keep the equipment functioning properly, perform the minor maintenance tasks in this section at the intervals suggested. Failure to maintain the equipment as described in this section could void the Precor Limited Warranty.
