STRIDES: Shows the total number of strides completed. A stride is an exagger-
ated walking movement. On the EFX, if you start in a position with one foot
forward and one foot back, a stride is completed when you move the rear foot all
the way forward while the forward foot moves to the rear.
STRIDES PER MINUTE: Displays your current pedaling speed. The number will
always be even since two strides create one complete revolution of the flywheel.
CALORIES: Provides the cumulative number of calories being burned.
REMAINING TIME: Indicates the amount of time, in minutes and seconds
(mm:ss), that remain in the course. When you enter a cool down period, the
Remaining Time resets to 5 minutes, and begins counting down from there.
Note: If a course has no designated time limit (the club has set the Workout
Time Limit as “No Limit”) and you input 0 using the numeric keys at the Enter
Time prompt), then the Time Remaining field does not appear. See
Club Infor-
mation
on page 17.
DISTANCE: The distance that you have travelled appears when you select this
feature. Distance appears in 100th mile increments and can also appear in
kilometers. (See
Club Information
on page 17.) The number shown in the dis-
play is not a conversion of strides, but relates closely to the user’s expenditure
of energy. The energy level is derived from the user’s current MET’s value and
converted to an equivalent linear distance.
WATTS: Indicates the amount of energy the EFX is currently generating and is
derived from the current resistance and pedaling speed.
CALORIES PER MINUTE: Indicates the approximate number of calories being
burned per minute.
SEGMENT TIME: In the Manual or preprogrammed courses, this display indi-
cates the amount of time, in minutes and seconds (mm:ss) that remains in the
highlighted column (or segment) of the course profile before the cell at the top of
the next column begins blinking. If the course being used is Interval or Weight
Loss, then the number appearing in this display indicates the amount of time that
remains in the current interval.
CROSS RAMP
TM
: Displays the current ramp incline. The Cross Ramp and
keys let you set an incline between 1 and 20. Once a course is begun, you can
also use the numeric keys to designate the incline setting. Refer to Numeric
Keys on page 25.
Note: You can check the incline (when it is not the chosen display) any time
during your workout by lightly pressing either Cross Ramp or key for less
than 2 seconds. Pressing the Cross Ramp or key for more than 2 sec-
onds causes the ramp incline to change.
