500Er Owner’s Manual
Strides/min, or Strides‐per‐minute, is the number of complete revolutions a single pedal completes every sixty (60) seconds.
Watts are units of energy generation and frequently adopted to track the amount of work generated during a workout. Watts are calculated with input from the user’s current Speed and Load.
Workout Profile or Brickyard
During the Setup mode and while a program is operating, this field will graphically display the resistance level of the current workout program. A higher “brick” stack
represents a higher load or resistance level, with each brick representing two (2) levels
of resistance. A flashing column of bricks will indicate the user’s progress in the
program at any given time. In the diagram to the left, the user has progressed to the
sixth column (flashing) and the resistance level is set currently set to twelve (12). Each vertical column represents a time interval determined by the total length of the
program. Each column will equal 1/10th of the total program length. For example, if the program length is thirty (30) minutes, each column will equal three (3) minutes (30 minutes / 10 segments = 3 minutes per segment).
During the Target Heart Rate programs, the brickyard will display the user’s calculated maximum heart rate profile.
Warm Up and Cool Down Program Indicators
After selecting one of the 500Er programs, the Warm Up program will launch automatically and “Warm Up” will be displayed above the brickyard. Upon the completion of a program, the Cool Down program will commence and “Cool Down” will be displayed.
Data Entry Prompts
During the Setup mode, the user will be prompted to enter data. “Enter Age” or “Enter Weight” will flash to prompt the user.
