how do you set the stride
769123
The instructions say to walk 10 steps, measure the length from start to finish in inches. Calculate your stride length by dividing the total distance by 10. For example, my stride was 280 inches divided by 10 equals 28 inches or 2 feet 4 inches. I punched in that number.

What I did was take three steps then measure the distance with a tape measure. Divide the number by three and that is your stride. My stride was 2 ft 10 inches

The instructions give clear direction on how to set up the stride. In short you measure how many steps you take in 3 feet and enter that number into the counter.

Yes, set up your stride in inches or centimeter. I chose mine in inches, the distance walked will be displayed in miles.

You probably have shorter steps, but it would be wise to try and calculate the pedometer on a treadmill or a mile you have marked off previously. I found that I had underestimated my stride when I first set up my pedometer after having walked my regular route. I had to readjust my initial setting from 28" to 30" a step.

I cannot find an option after having set up the game. I am not sure if you can set it at the beginning.

I'm not sure what you are trying to reset, but if you push down and hold the set button, you can reset your time, steps, weight, stride and hour clock in this one feature. Use the mode button to get to the feature you want and the reset button to increase your numbers. Once you have it where you want it, hit the set button and you are good to go.

It can be set anywhere between Stride length: 12" to 48" (in increments of 1'') /30 to 120 cm (in increments of 1 cm) So yes it will do 23" stride

There is no setting or otherwise mechanical adjustment for the stride adjustment. You simply vary the effort you put into the stride, i.e., you can go short or long. I would have liked to keep mine but there was some part that was bad (inside the locked gear housing). The Schwinn Company wanted me to become a mechanic and start taking the thing apart while on the phone with them to "troubleshoot" and fix the problem. My time is too valuable for that. Thank goodness for Amazon's return policy which allowed me to return it and get all of my money back.

Elise, I never bothered reading the manual, so here's some basic instruction for using the presets only: 1.) Move the pedals forward and the screen should power on. 2.) Hit the UP arrow once, the (tiny, tiny) menu item at the top should say 'Manual'. 3.) Hit the UP arrow again, the top item should now say 'Program'. 4.) Then hit the 'Mode' button once, you should see 'P1'. 5.) Use the arrows to scroll through the six preset programs. If you pause for a second, each preset will be represented by a graphic of what you can expect. 6.) Choose one, hit 'Start', the timer starts. 7.) Now use the up/down arrows to increase or decrease resistance overall. I was able to customize my own hilly presets one bar at a time, but the presets were sufficient, so I just used those. Hope this helps.

No need for that. In general, it does a very good job counting steps. It has a default stride length that works well if you're close to average height for your gender; if you're particularly tall or short you can set a custom stride length in the online profile that you can set.

Yes, I adjusted my step to 23 inches. I followed the directions that came with my new Omron. I drew a line and you are to walk normally 10 steps, draw another line at that point. Measure the distance from beginning to end in inches. Calclate your stide length by dividing the total distance by 10. for example total distance was 230 inches /10 = 23 inces for stride. Hope this helps. I did it right away soon as I got it. Once you have had it and starts using it, I dont' know how you get into that again. If that is the case, I suggest you call them to see how to get into it again to program it. I had a fancy one that came with a CD to follow the directions. I threw that one away because I couldn't get all of this set with my stride, weight, etc. This one was much better.Enjoy!!~

My wife can use it but I cannot it does not work with my stride and I am 5 feet 9 inches tall. My wife is 5 foot and 6 inches. I do not know what the stride length is for sure. Also we are selling ours because your feet do not stay stationary on it. It is a hard plastic and our feet slide around too much.

If one sets the stride length properly, yes, this will estimate (measure) the pace.

You will need to go into the express scribe program. Click on "options". Select the "control" tab at the top. Your screen should display "enable foot pedal controller" with the box checked (go ahead and check it if it is not already done). Click on the "controller setup wizard" bar. this will take you through a series of pages, on about the 3rd screen you will be able to alter the command map for your foot pedal, or reset to the default commands. Select "change a command" to change the default setup. Select finish at the bottom of the screen when you are done. That should take care of your setup. :o) You will need to go into the express scribe program. Click on "options". Select the "control" tab at the top.

With the watch on step, press to "On/Off" button. The walker indicator should start to blink. It takes about a dozen steps before the display shows steps. If that doesn't work product is broken. hope that helps.

Hello. You can do both to start the scale. I just step on and it works everytime.

On the back you will see 2 buttons. I use a paper clip and press the arrow button then use the memo that is on top of the pedometer to set you time. As far as I know that is all you do. When you get the time take the paper clip and press the set button and that's it.
