Although the BioStep offers advanced programming capability, it also features a “Quick-Start”
function that allows the user to immediately begin exercise with factory preset default values
serving for the programmable system parameters.
Quick-Start operation is simple. Seat the user, adjust the seat forward and back position and foot
pedal straps as necessary, and proceed as described below:
1.
Pr
ess

a
brief

current
software version,) the system beeps to signify that it is ready to begin collecting data.
2. Grasp the BioStep adjustable arms and begin to exercise.
3. Use the <+> and <-> adjust effort level buttons to adjust resistance level.
NOTE: The Effort Levels are not wattage settings. They are a series of torque settings with
no given value.
4. To stop the system at any time, simply stop exercising. All parameters will continue to display
for one minute before the system shuts off. If you want to turn the system off and automati-
cally

NOTE: The BioStep provides Constant Resistance Control exercise mode. The BioStep Clinical Pro also

display activates to show the selected mode on the Clinical Pro. To change modes, on the BioStep Clinical
Pro, press <Select Exercise> (#4 on display).
NOTE: To provide heart rate monitoring, the subject must hold onto both heart rate contact handgrips or
use the telemetry chest strap.
NOTE: For the first 24 hours of operation, the BioStep should be used with the AC Adapter.
