To share your workout data:

  2. Ensure that your mobile device's Bluetooth setting is toggled on.
  3. If not already done, download the SPIRIT+ mobile application and login/create a user account.
  4. If not already done, download the fitness application of your choice and login/create a user account.
  5. Follow the application prompts to pair your stepper through the app. Please note: each application will vary slightly when pairing your stepper and parent application.

Connect Bluetooth Accessories (Heart Rate Monitor)

Bluetooth on your CS800 is always on and ready to pair. Pairing will differ based on the make and model of your specific device. Follow the instructions included with your Bluetooth device to ensure proper pairing and begin use. Once a heart rate monitor is paired, the CS800 will display the data in the “Pulse” section of the screen.

Troubleshooting Connectivity Issues

Issue(s):

  • Fitness app is not finding my machine
  • Fitness app won't connect to my machine

Resolution:

  1. Ensure your machine is plugged in and powered on.
  2. Ensure your mobile device is turned on and that Bluetooth is enabled.
  3. Ensure your mobile device is within 20 feet of the machine.
  4. Ensure you have the latest version of the fitness app installed on your mobile device. You can do this by visiting the app store on your device and viewing the most current version of the app available.

Issue(s):

  • Machine is not sending workout information to fitness app
  • Fitness app does not register my workout information

Resolution:

  1. Ensure that you have paired your machine directly to Zwift/Kinomap (FTMS apps), or you are using the SPIRIT+ app to share data from your machine to the third-party app of your choice (non-FTMS apps).
  2. Ensure your machine and the FTMS app(s) are properly paired by visiting your app’s customer support (See Zwift Troubleshooting or Kinomap Troubleshooting). Please note: non-FTMS apps can only receive data directly from the SPIRIT+ app. You cannot connect your treadmill directly to non-FTMS apps.
  3. Ensure your device is within 20 feet of the machine.
  4. Ensure you have the latest version of the fitness app installed on your device. You can do this by visiting the app store on your device and viewing the most current version of the app available.

Issue(s):

  • Fitness app will not load

Resolution:

  1. Check your internet connection to ensure it is working, and that you have a strong signal.
  2. Check your app’s list of supported devices to ensure that your device is listed.
