ODOMETER X 100—indicates the total number of steps accumulated on the
climber over time, up to 999,900. This display appears with the TOTAL STEPS
display. Use the odometer to track the amount of “mileage” your climber has on
it. Note that you need to multiply the number that appears by 100.
TIME—functions like a stopwatch, giving you total exercise time per session, up
to 59 minutes and 59 seconds. The TIME display starts or stops automatically
when you start or stop a workout. You must press the RESET key to reset the
TIME display to 0. (For more information about RESET, see the explanation
under
Keys.
) Use the TIME display to keep track of
how long
you have exercised
in a given session.
Note: If you pause during a workout, the internal clock continues to count and
to display the time for another 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, the screen saver
feature takes over, saves your workout statistics, and shuts off the displays. If
you return to your workout before 5 minutes elapse, the time display reverts to
your actual workout time. Refer to
Pausing Your Workout
.
SCAN—alternates between the displays STEPS/MIN, TIME, TOTAL STEPS,
TOTAL CALories, and PULSE every few seconds. When you press the RESET
key or begin a workout by pressing the START/STOP key, the word SCAN
appears on the display and indicates that you are in SCAN mode. If you only
want one particular feature displayed, press the MODE key until the feature is
highlighted. See MODE under
Keys
below.
PACER—appears in the bar graph on the left of the electronic display. You can
select a pacer up to 150 steps per minute. When you maintain or exceed the
pacer’s step rate, the bar stops blinking. The pacer sets a tempo for you to
follow which provides motivation and helps you to maintain your exercise
intensity.
TOTAL CALORIES—displays an estimate of the number of calories being burned
during your workout. The estimate is based on a 150 pound (68 kg) person
working out at your current steps per minute.
PULSE—shows your heart rate if you have installed the Precor receiver
and
put
on a Precor/Polar chest strap or attached the pulse detector (Precor’s ear clip
option) to the console. When you attach the receiver and put on the chest strap
or plug the pulse detector into the console, a
appears on the display at the
bottom right corner.
Keys
START/STOP—starts and stops a workout session. However, the electronic
console automatically begins displaying information when you move the stair
arms. You could use this key to start or stop your workout when you want to
keep your warm-up or cool-down sessions separate from your workout
statistics.
MODE—specifies the information you want displayed; whether its STEPS/MIN,
TIME, TOTAL STEPS, TOTAL CALories, PULSE or SCAN mode. Simply press
this key repeatedly until information from the desired display appears.
PACER—sets a pace tempo. When you press this key the pacer appears in the
bar graph on the left side of the display. To set the pace tempo or change the
current pacer setting, press the PACER key until the desired step rate is
highlighted. Refer to
Setting a Pacer.
RESET—resets the displays on the electronic console to zero. Note that
pressing this key does not reset the ODOMETER display. Using the RESET key is
another way to keep your warm-up or cool-down sessions separate from your
workout statistics.
