•Upon initial entry to this test, a heart-shaped image will be displayed in the profile window along with twomessages in the message center when the user has both hands on the lifepulse sensors. The first messageindicates the lifepulse software version number. The second is the configuration of the Iifepulse communicationsystem, which is either ON or OFF. This setting enables external communications for Iifepulse development onlyand should be left OFF. Following these messages, the display will change to a mode to display diagnosticinformation as described below, and the lifepulse system will be ready to be manually tested.

When both hands are detected on the sensors, the letters 'L' and 'R' will be displayed in the profile window alongwith the heart-shaped image.

Two timers will begin counting from the time both the left and right hands on condition occurs. The first timer,located on the upper console message center display, will stop counting when lifepulse computes and displays aninitial peak detected heart rate reading. The second timer, located on the lower console display window, willcontinue counting until lifepulse can reliably display the users heart rate. These timer readings are used forreference only.

The gain value of the heart rate signal is shown following the 'G' in the message display window. The value rangesfrom 0 to 99. A gain value of 99 is considered to be high and undesirable. A gain value of 0 is considered to be lowand also undesirable. Gain values of between 15 and 40 are considered normal depending upon whether the useris exercising or standing still during this test.

Take-UpRoller Nut

Special Service Tools: NONE

NOTE: In this step, you must make initialadjustments to the seat rollers on the right side ofthe unit first. This is done to insure that the tworight guide rollers are properly seated in the V­channel of the seat extrusion. Once the seat rollerson the right side are adjusted, then proceed toadjust the seat rollers on the left side of the unit.

1. Using a Y:z inch wrench, loosen all four(4) seatroller clamp nuts, then retighten by hand.

The following requires use of two, inch poundtorque wrenches. One to maintain a resistanceload against the take-up roller and the other totorque the roller clamp nut.

Note:The seat rollers are adjusted to aspecified resistance load. If the seat moves toofreely with excessive side-to-side movement,then the seat rollers must be adjusted asfollows.

2. Starting with the right side seat rollers, adjust thefirst take-up roller nut to 60-65 in. Ibs. in aclockwise direction. Observe that the roller clampnut will move up. This indicates that the seat rolleris being forced up against the extrusion. Continueto maintain the 60-65 in. Ibs. resistance load onthe take-up roller, and secure the seat rollerposition by tightening the roller clamp nut from100-120 in. Ibs. Repeat this procedure for otherremaining right roller. Once the right side isadjusted, repeat this procedure for the left side.Always set the right side seat rollers first. Failureto do so, will result in side-ta-side seat movement.

3. With all seat rollers adjusted, test operation of theseat assembly for a 15-25 Ibs. pulling force and toinsure that no side-to-side movement exists.Repeat this procedure as required.
