Introduction
Dear customer
We thank you for choosing ENERGETICS Fitness Equipments.
The computer oers the standard functions necessary to control your easily
control your training and design your work outs.
The various values collected during exercise are being scanned through on
the display. You can also choose to see a specic value individually at any
time during exercise.
Especially the measurement and display of your current heart rate oers you
the possibility to gear your work out toward important fundamentals for ef-
fective training as determined by sports science.
Before you start your workout please read the computer manual carefully.
We wish you success and continued enjoyment using your
ENERGETICS Fitness Equipment.
Your ENERGETICS -Team

! Not all models are equipped with hand pulse sensors, in this case
there will be no hand pulse cable! ! If the computer does not receive a signal for more then 4 minutes the sleep mode is activated.
Assembly and activation
Connecting the computer
Data cable: Connect the data cable coming from the equipment with the
one coming from the computer [1].
Mounting: Attach the computer to the mount on the equipment. Carefully
slide the insert sleeve on the back of the computer over the mount on the
centre post [2].
Pay attention not do damage the data cable when sliding the computer
housing over the mount.
Hand pulse sensors: Plug the hand pulse cable into the connector on the
back of the computer [3].
Computer activation
The computer can be activated by pressing the MODE-key or when the user
starts to pedal.
The computer will display the training time.
Sleep mode
Should the E-101 not receive a signal for more than 4 minutes it changes into
the sleep mode. The display turns dark. To start again press any key or start
to pedal.
All values are reset.
Power supply: The computer is powered with two batteries. Make certain
that the batteries are inserted correctly (polarity +/–).

! Reset all settings – RESET
To return the computer to its original settings press the function
key MODE 2 seconds. The display will show the original values.
! The computer uses kilojoules as unit to measure energy used.
Calories and kilojoules are terms that are sometimes confused or
wrongly interpreted.
Conversion:
1 kilojoule = 0,239 kilocalories
1 kilocalorie = 4,189 kilojoule
Quick start
Press the MODE-key or start to pedal. The computer starts automatically.
The display will scan through the current values of the various read outs
(workout time, calories used, travelled total kilometres, speed, workout dis-
tance and your current heart rate while holding the hand pulse sensors.
Please read this manual carefully before you start your training.
Explanation
Workout time Shows workout time in minutes.
Workout distance Shows workout distance in kilometres.
Calories used Shows calories used during workout in kilojoules.
Heart rate Shows current heart rate in beats per minute.
Speed Shows speed in kilometres per hour (kph).
ODO Shows total kilometres travelled.
Measured values

>> displays and key functions >> 007
The values of the dierent functions are constantly read and processed
by the E-101. The read out on the main display alternates every 6 seconds
among the various values.
To see a specic value press the MODE-key. The values are displayed in this
order.

Not every type of tness equipment has hand pulse sensors
available.
Hand pulse sensors record the variation in resistance, which is
created by the pulsation of the blood owing through the palms.
Movement on the handgrips, friction, moisture and perspiration
will inuence the transmission. There are among people appreci-
able physiological dierences in the characteristics of the resist-
ance change. For some people the resistance is to weak to even
be measured. In this case the computer will show no heart rate.
All these factors inuence the measurement, which makes it
imprecise and it should only be used for orientation.
If the hands are dry at the beginning of the workout the hand
pulse sensors might not pick up a signal at all or register a faulty
one. Usually it is sucient to moisten the palms to correct this.
The values that are measured and calculated here are not based
on medically valid measuring methods. The values therefore
might not be accurate. Please contact your physician for a medi-
cally valid measurement.
The heart rate measurement using the hand pulse sensors is
not t for medical purposes!
Training – functions and settings
Endurance training on this trainer using the E-101 computer, which oers
heart rate monitoring, is easy on your heart and joints. It is sensible basic
training to increase tness. This happens with regular exercise – the body
becomes slowly adjusted to the rst unusual strain.
The E-101 allows you complete freedom in the design of your work out.
Monitor your current heart rate while training and adjust the eort accord-
ingly. The eort can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the resistance or
changing the cadence.
Heart rate and heart rate monitoring
The computer monitors the heart rate via the hand pulse sensors. The heart
rate is displayed in beats per minute.
Measurement via hand pulse sensors: Sensors to
record heart rate from the palms are located on the
handlebars. For recording to take place both palms
have to be in contact with the sensors simultane-
ously [1].

! If the training is interrupted for more than 4 minutes the compu-
ter stops and all values recorded so far are lost.
Pause/interrupt exercise and reset
To interrupt the workout for a short period it is not necessary to press a key.
When the unit is idle there are no values recorded.
Safety
Our recommendation: Get a physician’s advice before you start your training.
• Train regularly and over an extended period of time.
• Wear comfortable, breathable clothing.
• Wear non-sliding sneakers. Never train bare footed, this could result in injury,
especially to your toes.
• Do not consume a heavy meal within one hour prior or after your workout.
• Drink plenty of fluids.
Frequently asked questions
How are the computer settings reset?
1. Reset: Hold the MODE-key for a minimum of 2 seconds and all functions
will be reset. Information not saved will be lost.
2. Power supply: If removing the batteries from the back of the computer
disconnects the power supply, all functions are reset and information not
saved it lost.
Can the workout/program be interrupted?
The training is interrupted when the computer no longer receives a signal
from the unit, the values will no longer be recorded. You can resume training
and the values continue counting.
Heart rate monitoring – can chest strap and hand pulse sensors be
used at the same time
The E-101 has no receiver for a chest strap signal.

Troubleshooting
Computer display is not working
• The computer might not be getting power. Check if the batteries are
inserted properly.
• The batteries might need to be replaced.
• Contact your local ENERGETICS-dealer if you have checked all connections
and the display is still not working.
The computer does not show values during the workout
•Check if the data cable is connected properly.
Heart rate (PULSE) shows no or incorrect read out
•Check if your palms have proper contact with the sensors. Both palms have
to be in contact with the sensors simultaneously. The display may be on a
slight delay.
• Check all cable connections.
• Try moistening your hands if they are dry.
The computer has shut down
In rare cases the computer might shut down, mainly because of sudden
changes in the electrical current or static discharge. Normally the E-101
restarts on its own.
If this should not occur a restart can be performed by removing the batteries
for a moment and reinserting them.
Care
Take care that to avoid any moisture penetration. Clean the computer with a
lightly dampened cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaning solutions.
Maintenance
There is no need for special maintenance. Regularly check that all bolts and
connections have a tight t. Exchange any defective parts immediately. For
assistance contact your local ENERGETICS-dealer.
