1. Overview of Updates
Speed Limit Functionality
The new version of the software for the Gait Trainer 3 and RTM600 now includes an additional
safety setting to limit treadbelt movement to a predetermined speed during Treadmill Training
activities. Clinicians can determine what the speed limit would be most appropriate for the type
of patients in their facilities. Speed limits can be set in either MPH or KMH.
Quick Setting Option for Speed Values
The software also includes additional functionality allowing faster setting of treadbelt speed.
Previously, users would need to touch the “UP” arrow multiple times to achieve a certain
treadbelt speed. There is now a keypad entry function that eliminates the multiple presses of
the “UP” button. (Each touch of the “UP” or “DOWN” buttons increases or decreases the treadbelt
speed by 0.1 MPH.) The keypad entry is programmed to account for speed limit settings, if
those settings are enabled.

From the Main Screen of the interface, choose the <Utilities> button.
Figure 2.1 The main menu of the Gait Trainer 3 interface.
Touch the <Configuration> button on the Utilities menu. If the Secure Access ID function of the
device is activated, you will need to input your code to access the Configuration of Patient
Management menus. (The default Secure Access ID is 781.)

Figure 2.8 The measurement unit has changed from US to metric.
If the Speed Limit functionality is set, users and clinicians will find that they cannot exceed that
speed limit when setting treadbelt speed on the “Quick Start” and “Manual Start” screen within
Treadmill Training. (The speed limit can be exceeded when setting a Custom Profile, however.
Also the speed limit is not applicable to Gait Training, which has a built-in speed limit of 4.5
MPH.)

3. Quick Setting Option for Speed Values
Clinicians and users now have the option of bringing the treadbelt to a designated speed
without having to press the “UP” button on the Quick Start and Manual Start multiple times.
To use this function, select either the Quick Start or Manual Start option on the Treadmill
Training menu.

The keypad will appear on the screen for 10 seconds. If a Speed Limit has been enabled, the
speed limit—in MPH or KMH—will appear at the top of the screen. Users will not be able to
press a number value that is higher than the speed limit.
