„ FIRST REST is displayed on the Elapsed Time/Cuff Pressure Indicator if:

• The ECG cable is connected properly to the ECG connector on the rear panel.

„ Heart Rate is displayed in the Heart Rate Indicator.

„ CHECK ECG is displayed on the Elapsed Time/Cuff Pressure Indicator if:

• ECG electrodes are not connected properly. Check that the leads are in the
  correct position. Check that the ECG cable is connected tightly to the port.

3.9.2 Setup of Programmable Controller and Treadmill

A set of predetermined test protocols based on the predicted maximal oxygen uptake would

be programmed into the controller. After the SP has been logged into the system, the system will calculate

and display the predicted VO 2 max based on the information described above.

„ Press Power to turn on the power to the controller and the treadmill.

„ Press Enter (this enters 150 as weight - do not change this).

„ Press Input + twice to bring up the different protocols.

„ Press Input + to move forward through the protocols.

„ Press Input - to move back through the protocols.

„ The protocol number appears to the left of the multifunction display (see diagram).

„ The exercise time appears to the right of the multifunction display.

„ Each vertical column in the tricolor display represents one stage of the protocol.

„ The green LEDs indicate the preprogrammed grade.

„ The red LEDs indicate the preprogrammed speed.

„ There are 16 horizontal lights on the treadmill display. See Figure 3-4 on page 3-34.

• The first 4 lights represent the current protocol (Warm-up, Stage I, Stage 2, and
  Recovery).


• The next 3 lights represent the next lower protocol (Stage 1, Stage 2, and
  Recovery).
