Treadmill Desk Innovative Features
Bluetooth – The Bluetooth communications system in this Workplace
Solutions console can send activity information to LifeSpan apps. Your phone
must be equipped with Bluetooth 4.0 or later, also known as Bluetooth Low
Energy. All iPhones and most Android phones have this.
Intelli-Step
– LifeSpan treadmill desks come with Intelli-Step our exclusive
TM
step counting feature that senses each time your foot lands on the walking
belt and counts your step total on the display console. If you're in the habit of
counting daily steps or want to incorporate a daily or weekly step count goal
this feature will provide more accurate step counting than using a smartwatch
or other wearable step counting device on your wrist.
require that the treadmill desk is able to detect your steps and will be less
accurate for those who walk lightly including those individuals under a 100
pounds (45.5 KG).
Intelli-Guard™ - This unique safety feature is engaged when the treadmill belt
speed reaches 1.0 MPH (1.6 KPH) or faster and automatically pauses the belt
20 seconds after you stop walking, ensuring that no one else steps on the
treadmill desk without noticing that its already running. When Intelli-Guard
senses that the treadmill is no longer being used, after 20 seconds the audible
beep will first notify you that the treadmill belt is going to pause. This feature
can be controlled in Personal Settings.

Personal Settings – there are several features that can be set using our
Personal Settings feature to tailor LifeSpan treadmill desks to your specific
preferences. These include:
• Maximum Speed: Select 2MPH (3.2KPH) or 4MPH (6.4 KPH)
maximum speed options.
• Intelli-Guard Selection: On / Off setting
• Resume Speed: after pressing pause and returning to the treadmill
desk the default belt speed will be .4 MPH (.6 KPH) which is the
normal starting speed. The resume starting speed can be modified
to default to return to the previous running speed.
In addition, the following features are applicable to both treadmill desk and
bike desk users.
• Audible Safety Beep: On / Off setting. Each time the control buttons
on the console are depressed an audible beep is used as an alert
that a change was made. This is designed to prevent accidental
speed adjustments being made without users being aware that they
may be accidentally depressing a button.
• Bluetooth Pairing: Manual or Automatic. The Bluetooth feature can
be set to automatically sync with your phone, if used by more than
one person we suggest setting it to manual mode and only sync
your results when the Bluetooth button is depressed.
• Metric versus Standard Readouts: Change the display readouts for
speed and distance to Metric or back to standard readouts.
Interlocking Frames – Since the DT5 and DT7 are designed specifically to be
used for walking with our treadmills we design them with an extra-large base
for added stability and we interlock our desks and treadmills together so they
are virtually impossible to pull over should you need to rely on the desk to
keep your balance.
Arm Rest – Foam padding on the front of the desk give you a comfortable
place to rest your arms and provide a location to hold onto the desk to keep
you located when actively engaged in other activities like walking meetings.
