A color registration error detecting method for repeatedly forming a plurality of registration error detection patterns of different colors on an image carrier, detecting the registration error detection patterns, and detecting a color registration error from detection signals of the patterns. In this method, a sampling length and a sampling frequency for detection of the registration error detection patterns are set so as to satisfy the conditions of (1) the sampling length is to be approximated to a wavelength of a vibrational component be read with a registration error component by registration error detecting means or to an integer multiple of the wavelength; (2) the sampling length is to be set as large as possible; and (3) the sampling frequency and an integer multiple thereof are to be separated as far as possible from a frequency of the vibrational component. Accordingly, the detection accuracy of the color registration error can be improved by sampling the original color registration error only from the color image registration error and the various vibrational components to be read by the pattern detecting means, thereby realizing both a high quality and a high speed in a color image forming device.

A semiconductor laser array emits n light beams at intervals r. An optical system having a lateral magnification .beta. in the beam arrangement direction forms spots of the n light beams on the photoreceptor. A polygon scanner deflects the n light beams to a direction perpendicular to the beam arrangement direction, to scan the photoreceptor simultaneously with the n light beams. The integer n is selected to be a value not less than 3, and an interlacing period I, which is defined as I=.beta.r/p where p is an interval of adjacent scanning lines on the photoreceptor, is selected to be an integer in the range of 2.ltoreq.I.ltoreq.(n-1) and prime to n.

In addition, a processing unit is used to calculate the average speed, the average muscle power, the average power and the peak power generated by the subject's legs, according to the detection signals from the foot load sensor and the rotation frequency sensor. These calculations are visually and auditorially displayed to the subject by an indicator device.

A control system with an abnormality detecting device for use in a motor vehicle. The control system comprises a microcomputer coupled through a switching circuit and an analog-to-digital converter to a sensor for sensing an operating state of the motor vehicle and also to a reference voltage generating circuit. The switching circuit performs a switching operation between an analog signal from the sensor and a predetermined reference voltage signal from the reference voltage generating circuit to supply the analog-to-digital converter with one of the analog signals which is analog-to-digital-converted in the analog-to-digital converter. The microcomputer has a first decision function which decides that the output signal of the analog-to-digital converter to be coupled to the sensor is out of a predetermined range, and further has a second decision function which decides that the output signal of the analog-to-digital converter to be coupled to the reference voltage generating circuit is different from a predetermined value. In accordance with the decision result, the second decision function decides that the sensor or analog-to-digital converter circuit is in an abnormal state. This arrangement can selectively and adequately detect the malfunction of the sensor or analog-to-digital converter.
