(isolated) neutral/
ground for power.
This outlet should
be a NEMA 5-15R
and have the same
configuration as the
plug. No adapter
should be used with
this product. These
bikes can be daisy-
chained together with up to 4 units per 15 A dedicated circuit.
Matrix daisy-chain cord adapters are sold separately.
220 V UNITS
All Matrix 3x, 5x and 7xe 220 V bikes require the use of a 216-
250 V, 50 Hz and a 15 A “Dedicated Circuit”, with a non-looped
(isolated) neutral/ground for power. This outlet should be a
NEMA 6-15R and have the same configuration as the plug. No
adapter should be used with this product. These bikes can be
daisy-chained together with up to 4 units per 15 A dedicated
circuit. Matrix daisy-chain cord adapters are sold separately.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The unit must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break-
down, 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. If the user does not follow these
grounding instructions, 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. No adapter should be used with this
product. A coaxial cable from the video source to the unit will
be needed for each PCTV unit.
ADD-ON DIGITAL TV (3X AND 5X)
Additional power requirements are not needed for the add-on
digital TV.
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.
These products are designed to be self powered and do not require an external power supply source to operate. An external power
supply source will power the console at all times.
For units with an integrated TV (7xe), the TV power requirements are included in the the unit. For units with an add-on digital TV (3x
and 5x), the machine in which the add-on digital TV is connected to powers the add-on digital TV. Additional power requirements
are not needed for the add-on digital TV. For units with an add-on PCTV (3x and 5x), the TV power requirements are separate.
NOTE: ALL UNITS WITH VIRTUAL ACTIVE™ MUST BE POWERED!
110 V UNITS
All Matrix 3x, 5x and 7xe 110 V bikes require the use of a 100-125 V, 60 Hz and a 15 A “Dedicated Circuit”, with a non-looped
It is essential that your unit is used only indoors, in a climate controlled room. If your unit has been exposed to colder
temperatures or high moisture climates, it is strongly recommended that the unit is warmed up to room temperature
before first time use. Failure to do so may cause premature electronic failure.
CONSULT A PHYSICIAN BEFORE USING THIS EQUIPMENT.
READ OWNER’S MANUAL BEFORE USE.
