Place of usage
To ensure that exercising with the equipment is easy, safe and eective, the place where it is used should comply with certain specic requirements; in
particular, before choosing the place where the equipment will be installed, please ensure that the following conditions are satised:
- the temperature is between +10°C and +25°C;
- enough air is circulating to keep humidity during exercise to between 20% and 90%;
- the lighting is good enough to make the area safe and relaxing place to exercise in;
- free space of at least 60 cm around the entire perimeter of each product;
- that the oor is at, stable and vibration-free, and strong enough to bear the weight of the equipment plus user.
Do not expose the equipment to direct sunlight.
Do not use outdoors. Do not leave the equipment outdoors, exposed to the elements (rain, sun, wind, etc.). Do not expose the equipment to water jets.
Do not operate where aerosol (spray) products are being used or where oxygen is being administered.
Do not install the equipment in areas with high humidity levels, for example close to swimming pools, whirlpools or saunas.
The place of installation must comply with all the suitability requirements laid down in current legislation on this matter.
In order to guarantee the performance indicated by the manufacturer, you are advised against using the equipment in zones with high short-wave
presence or similar.

Synchro Excite 15
Moving the equipment
W

- loosen the lock nut (B);
- screw the front feet (A) in or out until the frame is in a stable position;
- tighten up the lock nut (B) after adjusting.

Synchro Excite 17
Electrical connection (mains powered version)
Before connecting the equipment to the mains power supply, ensure that the electrical system specications comply to binding regulations. Check the
mains power supply specications on the label applied to the frame under the control panel.
Plug the power cable rst into the equipment socket and then into the wall socket.
W
The wall socket must be located in a place where the plugging and unplugging can be done easily and safely.
When plugging in, the switch on the equipment must be in the 0 position (i.e. the equipment must be switched o).
Check the state of the power supply cable periodically.

Synchro Excite 18
Electrical connection (mains powered version)
The power supply socket must be grounded . If not, a ground connection must be installed by a qualied electrician before connecting
the equipment to the electricity mains.
The product 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 product 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.
W
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualied 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 t in the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualied electrician.

Synchro Excite 19
Connection to another device
The equipment can be connected to an audio/video reception device such as the Cardio
Theater. Besides, if the equipment has not TV, it can be connected to a network of devices
conforming to the CSAFE protocol.
W
The devices connected must comply with international standards.
Equipment with codes DE58M.... can be connected to devices conforming to the CSAFE protocol only for setting and maintenance functions. Additional
devices connected to the digital interface must conform to the respective IEC standards (that is IEC 60950 for information technology equipment and
IEC 60601-1 for medical electrical equipment). Whoever connects additional equipment to the input or output signal ports, congures a medical system
and therefore is responsible for the system’s conformity to the IEC 60601-1 standard about systems. Consult the technical support department or your
local representative if you have any doubts.

Synchro Excite 20
Connection to another device
If the equipment has TV, connect the aerial cable to the equipment and to the wall socket. Use an RF coaxial cable for the connection with an F type of
connector for the equipment.
The wall socket of the aerial cable must be positioned so that the plug can be easily inserted and removed.
A network socket can be found next to the aerial socket for the Ethernet connection.
