Life Fitness Models 8500, 9100, and 9500HR Cross-Trainers
THEORY OF OPERATION
The electronic system on the rear-drive crosstrainer is made up of three main functional blocks: 1) Console, 2) HR
telemetry, and 3) Alternator, Power Control Board, and Load. In addition, the 9500 model has Lifepulse contact HR.
The following is a description of each functional block:
CONSOLE
The system voltage (6-7.5Vdc) enters on connector P2 pin 1 and is used to power the LEDs and provide a supply
voltage for the 5V-regulator circuitry used to power the microprocessor section.
The Keypad entry (user’s input), Lifepulse (9500HR only), and Telemetry are all processed by the microprocessor.
The console outputs a PWM signal to the power control board to control the duty cycle of the load.
ALTERNATOR, POWER CONTROL BOARD, AND LOAD
Using the PWM signal from the console, the power control board switches the current on and off at the load via
Q1. The control board also regulates the alternator voltage using the U1 comparitors. Q3 and Q9 are used to
sense the reed switch actuation (autostart feature).
POLAR
HR telemetry is implemented via a Polar receiver located in the rocker arm shroud at the front of the unit. The
Polar receiver connects to the console at connector P7.
LIFEPULSE (9500 ONLY)
The handlebar electrodes connect to the console board at connector P9. Pins 1 and 4 are signal, pins 2 and 3 are
circuit reference.

The items displayed for selection are Code Version, RPM, Heart Rate, and Load Duty Cycle (LDC).
Code Version will be displayed under the TIME segment and will be a four(4) digit number. Press the DISPLAY LOCK
key or the “8” key (CT9500) to access software part number xxxx-xxxxx-xxxx. To go back to the original diagnostic
screen press the DISPLAY LOCK key or the “8” key (CT9500).
To verify the RPM signal, pedal and observe RPM value.
To verify that the heart rate system is functioning properly, use a polar simulator or a chest strap. If the unit functions
correctly the Heart Rate LED will illuminate and a heart rate value will be displayed in the MESSAGE CENTER under
the LEVEL and CALORIES segment. Otherwise if heart rate is not detected then the “HR” characters will be displayed
and the HEART RATE LED will not be lit.
While pedaling, press the ARROW keys to verify the alternator LOAD DUTY CYCLE. Using the UP ARROW, increase
load resistance from 0 to 250. Zero (0) equals a no Load Duty Cycle (LDC) state. 250 equals 100% of LDC. The Load
Duty Cycle value will be located under the HEART RATE and DISTANCE segment.
NOTE: Use the PAUSE and QUICK WORKOUT keys to increment and decrement the LDC value by 10%
(CT9100/8500 feature). Use 4 and 6 KEYS to increment and decrement LDC value by 10% (CT9500 feature).

Upon initial entry to this test, a message concerning the configuration of the lifepulse system being On or Off. This
test will allow the user to test the lifepulse heart rate system.
Following this message, the lifepulse system can be manually tested. A heart will be in the profile window.
The system will show when the user has placed their hands on the lifepulse sensors. When the left sensor detects
hands on condition, a ‘L’ will be placed in the profile window with the heart. When the right sensor detects hands on
condition, a ‘R’ will be placed in the profile window with the heart.
A timer will start counting from the time when a both left and right hands on condition occurs to when the lifepulse
system can reliable give the user their heart rate. This timer will stop when the heart rate is given.
The gain value of the heart rate signal is shown. The confidence level of the heart rate value is displayed. The value
ranges from 0 to 9. A value of 9 is considered to be high confidence. A value of 0 is considered to be low confidence.
