POWER REQUIREMENTS

DEDICATED CIRCUIT AND ELECTRICAL INFO
A "Dedicated Circuit" means that each outlet you plug into should
not have anything else running on that same circuit. The easiest
way to verify this is to locate the main circuit breaker box, and turn
off the breaker(s) one at a time. Once a breaker has been turned
off, the only thing that should not have power to it are the units
in question. No lamps, vending machines, fans, sound systems, or
any other item should lose power when you perform this test.
Non-looped (isolated) neutral/grounding means that each circuit
must have an individual neutral/ground connection coming from
it, and terminating at an approved earth ground. You cannot
"jumper" a single neutral/ground from one circuit to the next.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
For your safety and to ensure good unit performance, the ground
on this circuit must be non-looped (isolated). Please refer to
NEC article 210-21 and 210-23. Any alterations to the standard
power cord provided could void all warranties of this product.
The 3x, 3xe, 5x, 7xe and 7xi cycles are designed to be self-powered
and do not require an external power supply source to operate.
Without an external power supply, the console's start-up time
may be delayed. Add-on TV's and other console accessories
will increase the time needed for start-up. An external power
supply will ensure power is provided to the console at all times
and is recommended when add-on accessories are used.
For units with an integrated TV (like the 3xe, 7xe and 7xi), the
TV power requirements are included in the unit. An RG6 quad
shield coaxial cable with 'F Type' compression fittings on each
end will need to be connected to the cardio unit and the video
source. Additional power requirements are not needed for
the add-on digital TV (3x and 5x). For units with an add-on
PCTV (3x and 5x), the TV power requirements are separate.
NOTE: All units with Virtual Active
110 V UNITS
All Matrix 110 V cycles require the use of a 100-125 V, 60 Hz and a 15
A "Dedicated Circuit", with a non-looped (isolated) neutral/ground
for power. These cycles can be daisy-chained together with up to 4
units per 15 A circuit. This outlet should be a NEMA 5-15R and have
the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with
this product. Matrix daisy-chain cord adapters are sold separately.
220 V UNITS
All Matrix 220 V cycles require the use of a 216-250 V, 50 Hz and a 15

for power. These cycles can be daisy-chained
together with up to 4 units per 15 A circuit. This
outlet should be a NEMA 6-20R and have the
same configuration as the plug. No adapter
should be used with this product. Matrix
daisy-chain cord adapters are sold separately.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The unit must be grounded if connected to a
power supply source. If it should malfunction
or breakdown, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce
the risk of electric shock. The unit is equipped
220 NEMA 6-20P
with a cord having an equipment-grounding

conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is

the user could void the Matrix limited warranty.
ADDITIONAL ELECTRICAL INFO
In addition to the dedicated circuit requirement, the proper
gauge wire must be used from the circuit breaker box, to each
outlet that will have the maximum number of units running
off of it. If the distance from the circuit breaker box to each
outlet, is 100 ft (30.5 m) or less, then 12 gauge wire should be
used. For distances greater than 100 ft (30.5 m) from the circuit
breaker box to the outlet, a 10 gauge wire should be used.
ENERGY SAVING / LOW-POWER MODE
All units are configured with the ability to enter into an energy
saving / low-power mode when the unit has not been in use
for a specified period of time. Additional time may be required
to fully reactivate this unit once it has entered the low-power
mode. This energy saving feature may be enabled or disabled
from within the 'Manager Mode' or 'Engineering Mode.'
ADD-ON PCTV (3X AND 5X)
A 15 A or 20 A "Dedicated Circuit" with a non-looped (isolated)
neutral/ground is required. Each PCTV requires at least 1.2 A of
current. No more than 12 PCTVs should be used for each 15 A
circuit and no more than 16 PCTVs should be used for each 20
A circuit. The power outlet should have the same configuration
as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product. An
RG6 coaxial cable with 'F Type' compression
fittings will need to be connected between the
video source and each add-on PCTV unit.
ADD-ON DIGITAL TV (3X AND 5X)
Additional power requirements are not needed
for the add-on digital TV. An RG6 coaxial
cable with 'F Type' compression fittings will
need to be connected between the video
source and each add-on digital TV unit.
WARNING!
• Connect this exercise product to a
properly grounded outlet only.
• Never operate product with a damaged cord
or plug even if it is working properly. Never
operate any product if it appears damaged, or
has been immersed in water. Contact Customer
Tech Support for replacement or repair.
Failure to follow these specifications
can cause damage to your product
and can void the warranty:
• All video and power outlets must be functional
the day of delivery / assembly of the product.
The client is responsible for any additional
installation charges associated with return visits.
• Electrical supply may fluctuate in your
area. To ensure stable performance of the
product, use the proper gauge wire.
DANGER!
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician
or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether
the product is properly grounded. Do not
modify the plug provided with the product.
If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
