1.4 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The Matrix Stepper has different electrical requirements depending on the
model chosen. The chart below should assist you with your facility planning:
5x: These products are designed to be self powered and do not require an
external power supply source to operate. However, these units can be AC
powered if an optional power cord is purchased. This will power the console
at all times and requires no minimum RPM for operation. These units can be
daisy-chained together, up to 4 units per dedicated 15 amp circuit, using a
Matrix daisy-chain cord adapter (sold separately).
7x: These products can operate without power; however, the machine must
boot the software with each new user. This can mean a delay of up to 35
seconds while the machine’s operating system prepares for a workout. It’s
similar to turning your cell phone on for the 1st time of the day. These units
can also be AC powered. This will power the console at all times and requires
no minimum RPM for operation. A powered product lowers the starting
resistance and is easier to use for beginners. These units can be daisy-
chained together, up to 4 units per dedicated 15 amp circuit, using a Matrix
daisy-chain cord adapter (sold separately).
7xe: These products must be AC powered. These units can be daisy-chained
together, up to 4 units per dedicated 15 amp circuit, using a Matrix daisy-
chain cord adapter (sold separately).
For your safety and for the performance of your Matrix product, the ground
on your circuits must be non-looped. Please refer to NEC article 210-21
and 210-23. Any alterations to the standard Matrix power cords will void all
warranties.
1.5 BATTERY CHARGE (5X, 7X)
The Stepper saves its battery charge by moving into a shutdown mode
whenever STEP FASTER appears on the display. If the user does not
maintain a step rate above 35 steps per minute, then a 30-second
shutdown process begins.
When the battery voltage is low, LOW BATTERY appears on the display if
the unit is moving into the shutdown mode. The following situation is the
time to recharge the battery:
• If no one has used the unit for an extended period of time, the battery
may need recharging.
• The unit continues to function with a low battery, however, user
and program information is lost once the user stops.
If the battery must be recharged, use the optional power adapter charging
unit. The charger should be connected to the Stepper for a minimum of
eight hours to ensure a thorough charge. After a completion of charge,
the battery light turns from red into green (see illustration). If LOW
BATTERY still appears on the display in a full of charging, the battery
could be extinct. Please check with an authorized service technician for
replacing the battery.
CAUTION: The battery stored inside the unit contains hazardous
materials to the environment. Proper disposal of the battery is required
by the local law.

1.6 GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The stepper must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec-
tric shock. The stepper is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances. If the user does not follow these grounding Instructions, the
user could void the Matrix limited warranty.
DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conduc-
tor can result in the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or
serviceman if the user is in doubt as to whether the product is properly ground-
ed. Do not modify the plug provided with the product if it will not fit the outlet;
have a proper outlet installed by a qualified technician.
