Exhibit 4-55. Decreased protocol Find Stage 1 of the next lower protocol. When the stage changes, press ‘Next Stage’
on the treadmill controller slowly until you get to ‘Stg 1 Low’ for the next lower
protocol. It is important to wait until the stage changes before changing the controller.
If you press too quickly and go past the desired protocol, keep pressing ‘Next Stage’
to advance to the second set of protocols. The next lower and next higher protocols
are programmed twice in sequence. Look for Stage 1 of the next lower protocol and
press ‘Next Stage’ slowly until you get to the desired protocol.
When the protocol is changed, the ISIS system will advance to Stage 1 and will
automatically select the next lower protocol.
The protocol will be highlighted in red below Stage 1. The same protocol will be used
for Stage 2.
In contrast, the treadmill controller does not move to the next lower protocol
automatically, even though ISIS was changed. It is necessary to manually change the
setting on the treadmill controller to advance to Stage 1 on the next lower protocol.
When the timer in the ISIS screen is reset to zero and starts timing the 3-minute Stage
1, press ‘Next Stage’ on the treadmill controller slowly until you get to ‘Stg 1 Low’
for the next lower protocol. It is important to wait until the stage changes before
changing the controller.
If you press too quickly and go past the desired protocol, keep pressing ‘Next Stage’
to advance to the second set of protocols. The next lower and next higher protocols
are programmed twice in sequence. Look for Stage 1 of the next lower protocol and
press ‘Next Stage’ slowly until you get to the desired protocol.
When the protocol changes to Stage 2, the treadmill controller will now go
automatically to Stage 2 of the current protocol (the lower protocol).
