M3I Series Computer - Keiser M3I Installation And Operation Manual

M3i INDOOR GROUP CYCLE

M3i SERIES COMPUTER

LINE 1 - BACKLIGHT SENSOR
While the M3i series computer is awake, the backlight sensor automatically detects ambient light levels in the room and
turns on the backlight display when needed.
LINE 2 - RPM (CADENCE)
The RPM displays the cyclists revolutions per minute of the crank arm. RPM is also known in the cycling world as cadence
and is roughly the speed at which the cyclist is pedaling.
LINE 3 - POWER AND ENERGY
The power output is displayed in Watts (currently generating) and Kilocalories (total value for the workout). The computer
toggles back and forth between Watts for 8 seconds and Kilocalories for 2 seconds. The rated accuracy for power be-
tween 30 and 160 rpm is ±5 Watts for Power below 50 Watts, and ±10% for power above 50 Watts.
LINE 4 - HEART RATE
If there is no Heart Rate signal, a steady heart symbol and a zero will be displayed. If a participant is wearing a Heart Rate
strap, once the computer locks onto the signal, the heart symbol will blink and display the heart rate. Please note that the
Heart Rate strap must be Polar compatible and coded.
LINE 5 - ELAPSED TIME
The number shown reports the total time spent cycling and will reset to zero after 60 seconds of inactivity or if the com-
puter is reset using the gear shifter.
LINE 6 - GEAR
Gears from 1 to 24 are displayed on the bottom left hand of the screen.
LINE 7 - ODOMETER/TRIP DISTANCE
For the first 8 seconds when the computer is activated, the odometer will display the total distance the cycle has been
ridden. This feature is for service and maintenance purposes only. After 8 seconds, the odometer will disappear, the trip
units will display "USA" for trip distance set to Miles, or "EURO" for trip distance set to Kilometers. As soon as the units
disappear, trip will display for the remainder of the workout. Note, to change the trip units, see instructions for setting bike
id and trip units to miles/kilometers.
AVERAGE CALCULATIONS
To view averages: RPM (Cadence), Power, and Heart Rate at any point in the workout, stop pedaling for three seconds.
This will flash your averages until you start pedaling again or until the computer goes to sleep after 60 seconds.
INTERVAL TRAINING
To initiate an interval, starting from a high gear drop the shifter handle to gear 1 for 1/4 of a second and lift it up to a higher
gear immediately. "inL #" will display confirming the interval has started.
Repeat the above steps to end the interval. When the interval ends the computer will display "inL End" and the averages
for that interval will blink. Note, the averages that show at the end of your ride when pedaling has stopped are inclusive of
all pedaling time and intervals that have taken place during the ride.
Bluetooth ® smart ENABLED
The Bluetooth Smart enabled computer allows Bluetooth Smart Ready devices such as cellphones, tablets, and comput-
ers to gather information about the ride. M3i compatible apps allow data to be stored to track progress over time and
make the data available to other fitness applications. Classrooms are able to utilize real time performance tracking pro-
grams which give the entire class an opportunity to see their performance compared with others in the class.
Note: For the first revolution of the pedal during startup, lines 2 and 3 will display "bid" and any number 0 to 150. If set up
correctly in a group cycle enviornment, bid (bike identification) represents an identifiable numerical value specific to each
individual cycle.
