Abstract
Sensor data is collected from a sensor monitoring a tension generating device of an exercise machine. The sensor data is analyzed to determine whether the sensor data is within a specification. In the event the sensor data is not within a specification, an error stop mode is entered for the tension generating device.
Claims21
An exercise machine, comprising:
- a tension generating device;
- a sensor monitoring the tension generating device;
- and
- a safety controller coupled to the tension generating device and the sensor, wherein the safety controller is configured to:
- collect a sensor data from the sensor;
- analyze the sensor data to determine whether the sensor data is within a specification;
- and
- in the event the sensor data is not within a specification, entering an error stop mode for the tension generating device.
