4. BASIC OPERATION OF THE RTM 400

At this point, the RTM 400 should be ready for operation. To get the treadmill up and running
simply follow the procedure below.
1.
Ensure that the <ON/OFF< switch, located on the left side of the front base, is set to the "l"
(ON) position. The Numeric Display should be illuminated, indicating that power to the
treadmill is ON.
2.
If desired, use the <Set Weight> keys to enter a weight to be used for calorie calculation.
Default value is 150 pounds (68 kg).
3.
If desired, use the <Set Time> keys to predetermine exercise duration.
4.
Position the patient on the treadmill and explain the exercise routine.
5.
Tilt the display panel for patient viewing comfort.
6.
Attach the Safety Lanyard at the left corner of the top cross bar which supports the Display
panel. The round end of the lanyard attaches to the unit via a Velcro ® brand hook and loop
fastener. The clip end of the lanyard should be attached to the patient's clothing in a way
that does not interfere with the patient's exercise.
NOTA: La déconnexion de la sangle de sécurité (côté gauche du panneau d'affichage et de contrôle)
ou l'actionnement du bouton rouge d'arrêt d'urgence (côté droit du panneau d'affichage et de con-
!
trôle) entraîneront à tout. moment l'arrêt progressif du tapis et le réglage de la vitesse à 0.0 kn/heure.
L'afficage indiquera qu'il y a eu un probléme de sécurité et le tapis ne redémarrera pas tant que la
sangle ne sera pas bien positionnée. De la même façon, aprés l'arrêt par le bouton d'urgence, le tapis
ne démanera pas tant que le bouton de démarrage ne sera pas actionné. Les données affichées ne seront
perdues ni dans l'un ni dans l'autre cas. L'enregistrement des données reprendra une fois la sangle
sera reconnectée et que le bouton de démarrage aura été actionné. Pour arrêter complétement une
séance aprés un arrêt de sécurité, appuyer sur la touche commande d'effaçage.
NOTE: Disconnecting the Safety Lanyard (to the left side of Display/Control Panel) or pressing the
red safety Stop (to the right side of Display/Control Panel on the upper frame) at any time will cause
!
the treadbelt to immediately ramp down to a full stop and reset to 0.0 mph. The Display will read
<Safe> and the treadbelt will not restart until the lanyard is once again in position or <Start> is
pressed following use of the Safety Stop. Display data is not lost in either case. Data accumulation
will resume once the lanyard is reconnected or <Start> has been pressed. To fully abort an exercise
session after pressing the Safety Stop, press <Clear Display>.
7.
Select treadbelt direction using the Treadbelt Direction <Forward> or <Reverse> keys.
8.
Press <Start> to enable treadbelt movement.
9.
Use the Speed <+> and <-> keys to adjust the speed to the desired level. The speed will
immediately respond to your input so be sure to inform the patient that the treadbelt will
begin to accelerate or decelerate. Gathering of data begins immediately at the point from
which the treadmill begins to move in either forward or reverse direction.
