Introduction
A pedometer is an exercise monitor that will, depending on model, count the number of steps, calculate distance, exercise time and calorie consumption.
Overview
General information
The pedometer uses a pendulum to register steps. When in motion, the pendulum gives off a clicking sound. Treat your pedometer carefully. It is not shock- or waterproof.
Silvaconnect.com (ex connect)
ex connect comes with access to www.silvaconnect.com.
There you can follow your exercise performance online, compare your results with other users, create challenges etc. Connect the pedometer to your PC using the USB cable supplied, go to www.silvaconnect.com ; and follow the online instructions.
Note: all settings below can be made directly on silvaconnect website.
ON/OFF
Insert the battery by pulling the battery hatch outwards. Insert the battery/batteries (1 x LR44 for ex step, ex distance and ex plus and 2 x LR44 for ex connect) and replace the battery lid.
The pedometer is not equipped with an ON-/OFF button since the power consumption when not in use is very low.
Placement of the device
The pedometer should be placed in an upright position. If it leans in any direction it may register incorrect number of steps. The best position is on your belt at the hip.
Settings
Change distance- and weight units
ex distance, ex plus & ex connect
To switch between metric (kg, km and cm) and imperial (lb, miles and feet), press and hold both buttons for 5 seconds. Note: this will reset steps, distance and calories accumulated.
Setting stride length
ex distance, ex plus & ex connect
For a correct distance value, the stride length needs to be set.
How to calculate your stride length:
- Walk 10 steps
- Measure the distance.
- Divide the distance by 10
- The calculated value is your stride length.
Press MODE until "KM" or "MIL" is displayed.
Press and hold SET and the current stride length will flash. Press SET repeatedly to increase stride length to the correct value (each press will add 1 cm or 0.1 ft).
To set a shorter stride length, add length until you pass maximum value (240 cm/8.0 ft). The pedometer will then start from the shortest value (30 cm/1 ft). When correct stride length is shown, release SET and you will return to the distance menu after a few seconds. Stride length is now set.

Press MODE until "CAL" is displayed.
Press and hold SET and current body weight will flash.
Press SET repeatedly to increase weight to correct value (each press will add 1 kg or 1 lb). To set a lower body weight, add weight until you pass maximum value (135 kg or 300lb). The pedometer will then start from the lowest value (30 kg/60 lb). When correct value is shown, release SET and you will go back to the calorie menu after a few seconds. Body weight is now set.
