SYNCHRO Excite +: Service & maintenance manual - rev. 7.1 3.8. POWER ENTRY MODULE Only for models: POWERED. This is a module consisting of: • power inlet socket; • power outlet socket; • fuse-holder for protecting line voltage and neutral with two 3.15A fast-blow fuses. It is situated on the side of the rear footboard.
SYNCHRO Excite +: Service & maintenance manual - rev. 7.1 3.10. BATTERY Only for models: SELF-POWERED. This is a 12 V – 4.5 AH battery which, in the self-powered version, supplies the machine whenever the alternator is unable to produce a sufficient voltage for powering the machine, and for at least 30 seconds after the user has stopped pedalling to allow data to be saved in memory.
SYNCHRO Excite +: Service & maintenance manual - rev. 7.1 3.12. BRAKE CONTROL 3.12.1. M ECHANICS The motion of the pedals imparts a rotation to the primary shaft via the belts connected to the 2 pedals. The primary shaft is connected to the secondary shaft and so to the brake, by means of a belt. The speed sensor attached to the frame detects the heads of the screws which secure the disk to the flywheel, and generates a signal proportional to the speed.
