BASIC INFORMATION
The Dot Matrix, or Prole Window, will display the workout Prole. The Message window displays
pertinent exercise data. There are four windows to display a large variety of pertinent data during the
workout. A Vertical window measures vertical height climbed along with Heart Rate and METS. Calories
window measuring overall calories burned along with Calories/minute and WATTS. A Time Elapsed
window along with Time Remaining and Total Program Time. Also, a Steps/minute window along with
total Steps and Floors climbed.
Heart Rate number display. The StairClimber has capabilities for both a Bluetooth sensor for telemetric
heart rate and contact heart rate. If wearing a Bluetooth enabled heart rate chest strap, the console will
automatically detect the closest sensor and display heart rate in the upper left side window. For contact
heart rate simply grasping the hand pulse sensors will calculate and display the heart rate (this may take
a few seconds). Press the scroll button until Heart Rate is displayed. The Heart Rate window will display
your heart rate, or Pulse, in beats per minute.
The console has a START/STOP button with a PAUSE feature. Once the StairClimber has started rotating
the staircase, the PAUSE function can be activated.
Pressing the START/STOP button once will slow and PAUSE the staircase from rotating and lock it in
place. The time period for the pause function is 30 seconds. If the START/STOP button is pressed once
during this time period then the staircase will unlock and begin slowly rotating again at resistance level
one. The user will be required to increase their resistance back to the previous level of exercise. If the
START/STOP button is not pressed within the 30 seconds, the program will automatically end and the
console resets.
Pressing the START/STOP button twice will slow and stop the staircase from rotating and end the
program, resetting the console.
16
ENTERING A PROGRAM & CHANGING SETTINGS
A safety tether cord is provided with this unit. It is a simple switch design that should always be used.
It is for your safety should you fall from the StairClimber when the Steps Per Minute (SPM) exceeds
your capability. Pulling this safety tether cord and activating the switch will stop the stairs movement.
To Use:
• Fasten the plastic clip onto your clothing securely to assure good holding power. NOTE: the
switch has a strong enough power to minimize accidental, unexpected stopping. The clip should
be attached securely to make certain it does not come off. Be familiar with its function and
limitations. The StairClimber will stop, depending on the level within one to two steps anytime the
switch is activated.
• If for any reason you feel unstable on the rotating staircase, immediately press the START/STOP
button or pull on the safety switch to stop the staircase and step off onto the side support steps
FAN
An adjustable vent, two-speed fan is integrated into the console to help keep you
cool during the workout. The fan is Off by default.
Press the fan button once to turn the fan on, on High. Press the fan button a second
time to switch to Low. Pressing the fan button a third time will shut the fan off.

Vertical distance counts up from 0 to 999 feet or meters then rolls over

of 1,000 will also illuminate and changes position with each distance of
1,000 reached.
Changing from imperial to meters is accomplished by pressing 1,2,3,OK.
18
NUMBER KEYPAD
When you are in the data set-up mode setting new data such as age,
weight etc., you can use these buttons to enter the numbers quickly
QUICK START
This is the quickest way to start a workout. Press the Start button to begin.
This will initiate the Quick Start mode. In Quick Start the Time will count
up from zero, all workout data will start to accrue, and the workload may
be adjusted manually by pressing the level Up + and Down - buttons. The
dot matrix display will show just the bottom row lit. As you increase the
workload more rows will light indicating a harder workout. The StairClimber
will get harder as the stairs begin to rotate more easily as the rows increase,
thus increasing your steps per minute. The dot matrix has 24 columns of
lights and each column represents 1 minute. At the end of the 24th column
(or 24 minutes of work) the display will wrap around and start at the rst
column again.
There are 20 levels of resistance available for plenty of variety. The rst
levels are very easy workloads, and the changes between levels are set
to a good progression for de-conditioned users. As the levels increase, the
braking of the rotating stairs decreases, causing the user to step a faster
rate, steps per minute (spm). The highest levels, levels 15-20 are extremely challenging. These levels
should not be used by deconditioned users as there is greater risk of falling off machine when the user
cannot keep up with the rate of rotation of the stairs. These levels are extremely hard and are good for
short interval peaks and elite athletic training.
19
PROGRAMMING THE CONSOLE
Each of the programs can be customized with your personal information and changed to suit your needs.
Some of the information asked for is necessary to ensure the readouts are correct. You will be asked for
your Age and Weight. Entering your Weight aides in calculating a more correct Calorie reading. Although
we cannot provide an exact calorie count we do want to be as close as possible.
CALORIE NOTE: Calorie readings on every piece of exercise equipment, whether it is in a gym or at
home, are not accurate and tend to vary widely. They are meant only as a guide to monitor your progress
from workout to workout. The only way to measure your calorie burn accurately is in a clinical setting
connected to a host of machines. This is because every person is different and burns calories at a different
rate. Some good news is that you will continue to burn calories at an accelerated rate for at least an hour
after you have nished exercising!

CPAT StairClimber Protocol
The StairClimber test was designed to simulate the critical tasks of climbing stairs
in full protective clothing while carrying re ghting equipment. This test challenges
candidate’s aerobic capacity, lower body muscular endurance, and ability to
balance. The goal of the test is to complete a xed time warm-up at 50 steps per
