The LPCA makes use of two main processors: the Master (also referred to interchangeably as
“Major”) and Slave (also as “Minor”).

Generator/Brake system
The EFX800-16 base generator/brake system has changed from previous generation EFXs
and now uses a generator/brake system similar to the AMT machines..
Active Status Light (ASL)
Active Status Light: similar to Treadmill ASL, except that operation has been changed for self-
powered machines. A separate microprocessor and software on the LPCA control the color
and flashing of the LED. A button near the light is used to wake up the entire system tem-
porarily to check its color, and to clear the status color if pressed long enough. Active Status
Light processor receives simple commands from the Console, see Active Status Light (ASL).
