  • Never walk or jog backwards on the PowerMill Climber.
  • Unlike bikes, cross-trainers, or the traditional paddle stairclimbers, this is a motorized product. This motorized product causes stair steps to descend at variable rates and therefore operates on different planes simultaneously. While operating the product during a typical workout, the user is forced to fully concentrate on coordinating his or her efforts on the moving stairs. Therefore, the user cannot see if anyone or any thing approaches from the rear. For these reasons this unit is designed for use only in a controlled setting. The PowerMill Climber is not designed for use in the home and should not be used in an environment where children or animals might have access.

Fit Tests
Life Fitness Fit Test A 5-minute submaximal test to predict VO2 max. Estimates cardiovascular fitness and can be used to monitor improvements in endurance every 4 - 6 weeks. See Life Fitness Fit Test for more information.
U.S. Navy Physical Readiness Test (PRT) A 5-minute distance goal test based on the time needed to complete the required distance and is used by the U.S. Navy and Naval academies to measure aerobic capacity.
U.S. Army Physical Fitness Test (PFT) A 5-minute physical performance test used to assess muscular endurance and cardio respiratory fitness.
U.S. Marines Physical Fitness Test (PFT) A physical performance test used to assess muscular endurance and cardio respiratory fitness.
U.S. Air Force Fitness Test A physical performance test used to assess muscular endurance and cardio respiratory fitness.
WFI Submax Protocol A graded submax assessment used to predict a fire fighter's aerobic capacity. This test automatically increases speed and incline (treadmill only) until a target heart rate is reached. This assessment replaces the Gerkin assessment. Once the target heart rate has been exceeded for 15 seconds, the program goes into a cool down mode.
Physical Efficiency Battery (PEB) U.S. Federal Law Enforcement, U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation, and other federal organizations use for the hiring and maintenance of federal jobs.
Individual Physical Proficiency Test (IPPT) The 2.4 kilometer portion of a standard physical fitness test utilized by the Singaporean Armed Forces, Police Force and Civil Defense Force.
Candidate Physical Ability Test This is used to predict the ability to perform basic fire fighting tasks developed by the International Association of Fire Fighters. The test starts out with a 20-second warm up period at a set stepping rate of 50 steps per minute followed by the 3-minute test at a set stepping rate of 60 steps per minute.

3.2.1: Life Fitness Fit Test

  • The Life Fitness Fit Test estimates cardiovascular activity and can be used to monitor improvements in endurance every 4 - 6 weeks.
  • The Fit Test is considered to be a submax VO2 (volume of oxygen) test and gauges how well the heart supplies oxygenated blood to the exercising muscles and how efficiently those muscles receive oxygen from the blood.
  • Physicians and exercise physiologists generally regard this test as a good measure of aerobic capacity.
  • Workout duration is 5 minutes total.
  • Take the Fit Test under similar circumstances each time. For the most accurate Fit Test results, you should perform the Fit Test on three consecutive days and average the three scores.
  • To receive a proper Fit Test score, the work done must be within a training heart rate zone that is 60% to 85% of the theoretical maximum heart rate (HRmax).

The user must grasp the hand sensors when prompted, or wear a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap as the test score calculation is based on a heart rate reading.

Note: The workout will be terminated if a heart rate is not detected after 2.5 minutes.

Your heart rate is dependent on many factors, including:

  • amount of sleep the previous night (at least 7 hours is recommended)
  • time of day
  • time you last ate (2 - 4 hours after the last meal is recommended)
  • time since you last drank a liquid containing caffeine or alcohol, or smoked a cigarette (at least 4 hours is recommended)
  • time since you last exercised (at least 6 hours is recommended)

Suggested exertion levels should be used as a guideline for setting up the Fit Test program. The goal is to elevate the user’s heart rate to a level that is between 60%-85% of their theoretical maximum heart rate.

Within each suggested range, use these additional guidelines:

Lower Half of Range Upper Half of Range
higher age lower age
lower weight higher weight (in cases of excessive weight, use lower half of range)
shorter taller

After the 5-minute FIT TEST is completed, a FIT TEST score and rating will be displayed.

Please note that the estimated VO2 max scores achieved will be 10-15% lower on stationary exercise bikes than those achieved on other Life Fitness cardiovascular equipment. Stationary cycling has a higher rate of isolated muscle fatigue of the quadriceps when compared to walking / running on a treadmill or utilizing a bike. This higher rate of fatigue corresponds to lower levels of estimated VO2 max scores.

Chapter 4: Getting Connected

4.1: Bandwidth Requirements

The tables below shows the recommended bandwidth based on application.

Download
Number of Units Bandwidth Required
Up to 16 4 Mbps
17+ 4Mbps + 0.25 Mbps for each additional product
Upload
Number of Units Bandwidth Required
20 512 Kbps
21+ 512 Kbps +512 Kbps per additional 20 products

4.2: Wireless LAN Requirements

Note: A dedicated internet connection is recommended. You will need to allow traffic outbound without any filtering or blocking on your internet connection.

Access Points

  • Life Fitness recommends a maximum ratio of 20 units per wireless access point. Exceeding this ratio introduces the potential of dropped workouts and connection issues.
  • The SL Console requires a connection to a wireless network with SSID of LFwireless. If you purchase your access point from Life Fitness (ACCESS-POINT-01), the access point will by default have this SSID installed. Contact Life Fitness Customer Service at 1.800.351.3737 or your Life Fitness representative before setting up this network to receive the required password for this SSID.
  • When connecting cardio products to wireless access points, see Bandwidth Requirements for the recommended number of units and bandwidth.
  • Commercial grade access points that meet the following minimum requirements:
    • Wireless-N Access Point (802.11n) with 2x2 MIMO
    • Band: 2.4 / 5 GHz Protocol: IEEE 802.11 n
    • Security: WPA2-PSK
    • Mounting: wall or ceiling mountable (e.g. Meraki MR32 or Rukus R500)

Cabling Requirements

  • CAT 5e or CAT 6 cabling can be used to connect your wireless access points to your wired network. Life Fitness recommends using CAT 6 cable for this purpose.

4.3: Network Equipment Placement and Power Requirements

Network equipment such as modems, wired routers and switches will require power; refer to product specs for exact requirements. Each access point will need power via PoE (Power over Ethernet) or additional optional power adapter. Refer to recommended manufacturer power requirements for further information.

4.4: Port Configuration

All traffic initiated from our consoles is outbound (i.e. data only flows out from our consoles). If you do not block outbound traffic and the associated return traffic, then no additional configuration is needed. Otherwise, if your network restricts outbound traffic, you need to open outbound connections on these specific ports:

  • TCP/UDP port 80
  • TCP/UDP port 443
  • TCP/UDP port 1883
  • TCP/UDP 8883
  • UDP port 1194

4.5: Destination URLs

The cardio machines will contact *.halo.fitness.com, *.lfconnect.com, and *.s3.amazonaws.com.

4.6: Registering Product with Halo

  1. Go to the Halo website: https://www.halo.fitness
  2. Click the Sign Up link. If you already have an account, Log In.
  3. Click the Sign Up link in the Manager section.
  4. Enter your information, and click Create Account to complete the process.
  5. Click the Add Now button under Equipment section
  6. Enter equipment serial number to add equipment. After entering one serial number, the rest of your connected equipment will be automatically discovered.

Chapter 5: Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Note: Safety of the equipment can be maintained only if the equipment is examined regularly for damage or wear. Keep the equipment out of use until defective parts are repaired or replaced.
Note: Pour assurer la sécurité du matériel, il convient de l’inspecter régulièrement afin de déceler tout signe d’usure ou d’endommagement. N’utilisez pas l’appareil avant d’avoir réparé ou remplacé les pièces défectueuses.

The following preventive maintenance tips will keep the product operating at peak performance:

  • Locate the product in a cool, dry place.
  • Clean the display console and all exterior surfaces with an approved or compatible cleaner (see Approved and Compatible Cleaners) and a microfiber cloth.
  • Long fingernails may damage or scratch the surface of the console; use the pad of the finger to press the selection buttons on the console.

5.1: Approved and Compatible Cleaners

Two preferred cleaners have been approved by reliability experts: PureGreen 24 and Gym Wipes. Both cleaners will safely and effectively remove dirt, grime and sweat from equipment. PureGreen 24 and the Antibacterial Force formula of Gym Wipes are both disinfectants that are effective against MRSA and H1N1.

PureGreen 24 is available in a spray which is convenient for gym staff to use. Apply the spray to a microfiber cloth and wipe down the equipment. Use PureGreen 24 on the equipment for at least 2 minutes for general disinfection purposes and at least 10 minutes for fungus and viral control.

Gym Wipes are large, durable pre-moistened wipes to use on the equipment before and after workouts. Use Gym Wipes on the equipment for at least 2 minutes for general disinfection purposes.

Contact Customer Support Services to order these cleaners (1-800-351-3737 or email: customersupport@lifefitness.com).

Mild soap and water or a mild non-abrasive household cleaner can also be used to clean the display and all exterior surfaces. Use a soft microfiber cloth only. Apply the cleaner to the microfiber cloth before cleaning. DO NOT use ammonia or acid based cleaners. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners. DO NOT use paper towels. DO NOT apply cleaners directly to the equipment surfaces.

5.3: Troubleshooting

5.3.2: Troubleshooting - Heart Rate Reading

Heart rate reading is initially detected and functioning normally but then is lost.
Probable Cause Possible Solutions
Use of personal electronic devices, such as cell phones and portable MP3 players, causes external noise interference. Remove the source of noise or reposition the exercise equipment.
Equipment is in close proximity to other sources of noise such as audio/video equipment, fans, two way radios, and high voltage/ high current power lines.
Heart rate readings are abnormally elevated.
Probable Cause Possible Solutions
Television sets and/or antennas, cell phones, computers, cars, high voltage power lines, motor driven exercise equipment , and another heart rate transmitter within 3 ft. (0.9 m) generate electromagnetic interference. Move the product a few inches away from the probable cause, or move the probable cause a few inches away from the product, until the heart rate readings are accurate.
Heart rate reading is erratic or absent entirely.
Probable Cause Possible Solutions
Belt transmitter electrodes are not wet enough to pick up accurate heart rate readings. Wet the belt transmitter electrodes (see The Optional Polar® Telemetry Heart Rate Chest Strap).
Belt transmitter electrodes are not laying fl at against the skin. Ensure the belt transmitter electrodes are laying fl at against the skin (see The Optional Polar® Telemetry Heart Rate Chest Strap).
Belt transmitter needs cleaning. Wash the belt transmitter with mild soap and water.
Belt transmitter is not within 3 ft. (0.9 m) of the heart rate receiver. Make sure the chest strap transmitter is within 3 ft. (0.9 m) of the heart rate receiver.
Polar® telemetry heart rate chest strap battery is depleted. Contact Life Fitness Customer Support Services for instructions on how to have the Polar® telemetry heart rate chest strap replaced.
Polar® telemetry heart rate chest strap did not lock in with the heart rate receiver.

Make sure the Polar® telemetry heart rate chest strap is properly attached to the user’s chest and move closer to the heart rate receiver inside the console. Wait up to 10 seconds for the heart rate to display on the console. The overall range of the heart rate strap is approximately 3 ft. (0.9 m) after it communicates with the receiver. The strap must be 1.5 - 2 ft. (0.5 - 0.6 m) away from the receiver in order to start communicating. When the display shows a heart rate value stay within 3 ft. (0.9 m).

Notes:

  1. Ensure proper adherence of the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap to user’s chest.
  2. Ensure proper conductivity between the electrodes and user’s chest.
  3. If needed, use the Polar watch to verify chest strap’s operation.
