TC6000 DISPLAY DATA AND FIELDS

You can chose the “fields” that are important to you. You can set the console to display your preferred data by using the three SCAN keys.

Using the SCAN keys:

There are three SCAN keys on the console. They control the information you see in the three data display areas. Each data display area can show you several different “fields” of information (Refer to pages 33 and 34).

Upper Left Display Area:

CALORIES > CALORIES / HOUR > PULSE > (Heart Rate) % OF MAX

Upper Right Display Area:

MILES > TIME > TIME INTERVAL

Lower Middle Display Area:

MPH > TIME > FLOORS CLIMBED > CALORIES > MILES

You can use the SCAN keys to either select a certain “field” or to put the Data Display Area into “Scanning Mode.” In Scanning Mode the fields automatically change (every 5 seconds) as you workout. The actuate Scanning Mode, press the SCAN key until the “SCAN (#)” ICON is shown.

Defining the data Fields

Calories: This is an estimate of how many Calories you are expending as you are exercising.

Calories per Hour: This is the rate at which you are expending Calories. Calories per hour will increase as you increase the SPEED, or STEP LEVEL.

Pulse: This is a reading of your Heart Rate in beats per minute,

% of Max: This is a reading of your Heart Rate as a percentage of your calculated maximum heart rate. We

use the formula;

Maximum Heart Rate = 220 – your age

Miles / km (Metric Mode): This is the distance that you have walked.

Time: This represents the time for your exercise session.

Time Interval: For programs that display a course, the TIME INTERVAL is the amount of time left before

the course shifts to the next column. TIME INTERVAL always counts down.his represents the time for your exercise session

Pausing, Stopping and Results Mode: See Page 31 for information on Pausing your workout and the Results Mode.

Benefits of setting yourself up as a registered user.

In designing the console for the TC6000 we wanted to create a console that would better interact with you the user. When you register yourself as a user, the console automatically tracks useful information on your progress that you can retrieve later through the Bowflex Advantage™ Program.

The console also remembers other information that will help you to get into your workout fast and efficiently, instead of spending a lot of time pressing buttons.
