POWER REQUIREMENTS
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
For your safety and to ensure performance, the ground on this circuit must be
non-looped (isolated). Please refer to NEC article 210-21 and 210-23. Failure to
follow these electrical requirements could void the Matrix limited warranty.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER!
The unit must be grounded. 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 with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. 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.
110 V UNITS
110 V units require the use of a 100-125 V, 60 Hz and a minimum of a 15A circuit, with a
non-looped (isolated) neutral/ground for power. This unit can be daisy-chained together
with up to 4 units per 15A circuit. Matrix daisy-chain cord adapters are sold separately.
220 V UNITS
220 V units require the use of a 216-250 V, 50 Hz and a minimum of a 15A circuit, with a
non-looped (isolated) neutral/ ground for power. This unit can be daisy-chained together
with up to 4 units per 15A circuit. Matrix daisy-chain cord adapters are sold separately.
DIGITAL TV
An additional power adapter is not needed for the add-on TV or consoles with the
integrated digital TV tuner. 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.

BATTERY CHARGE (LED CONSOLES)
The Stepper saves its battery charge by moving into a shutdown mode whenever STEP FASTER
appears on the display. If the user does not maintain a step rate above 35 steps per minute, then a
30-second shutdown process begins.
When the battery voltage is low, LOW BATTERY appears on the display if the unit is moving into the
shutdown mode. The following situation is the time to recharge the battery:
If no one has used the unit for an extended period of time, the battery may need recharging.
•
The unit continues to function with a low battery; however, user and program information is lost
•
once the user stops.
If the battery must be recharged, use the optional power adapter charging unit. The charger should
be connected to the Stepper for a minimum of eight hours to ensure a thorough charge. After a
completion of charge, the battery light turns from red into green (see illustration). If LOW BATTERY
still appears on the display after a full charge, the battery could be extinct. Please check with an
authorized service technician for replacing the battery.
CAUTION: The battery stored inside the unit contains hazardous materials to the
environment. Proper disposal of the battery is required by the local law.
