o
Outlet voltage to low: Low out-of-spec outlet voltage can be caused by a large
voltage drop in the facility circuit panel-to-wall outlet circuit due to an extremely
long circuit wire run. For power requirement information, refer to the
Power
Requirements
topic.
o
Input current to low: The power outlet circuit wire gauge may be too small to
carry the required machine load current (20 amps/machine).
l
Make sure that the outlet receptacle power is good quality (the input power is NOT
intermittent or has fluctuating voltage levels or frequency). Poor quality input power
can cause operational failures in the machine or powered console. For power require-
ment information, refer to the
Power Requirements
topic.
l
Make sure that each Precor treadmill is connected to a separate 20 amp individual
branch circuit outlet. No other devices can be connected to the same circuit outlet
except for one optional
PVS

(Personal Viewing System) display if installed. For
power requirement information, refer to the
Power Requirements
topic.
IMPORTANT
: Always make sure the input power is good quality before
troubleshooting the machine. A poor quality input power signal may be the cause of
the machine issue or operating failure.
Verify (reproduce) the customer issue
If possible, operate the unit in the workout and conditions similar to the customer and
attempt to reproduce the reported failure.
l
Determine if the error is a repeatable or intermittent type failure.
l
Make note of any additional observations (noises, vibrations, etc.) that occur at the
time of the failure which may then be used to help resolve the issue.
Note
: It is important to keep in mind that some issues are weight (load) related.
You may need to test the unit at minimum and maximum load Limits to reproduce
the failure.
Verify the Club Settings
Verify that one of the workout limit settings are not causing a failure, see
(LED
consoles) or
System Settings Workout Limits
(Touchscreen consoles). If a failure is
observed while using the machine but passes the hardware validation system tests, this
could be an indication that one of the club parameters Limits settings is causing the issue.
Verify service bulletin and software update incorporation
Make sure that the machine is up to date with all released service bulletins, tech-tips, and
software updates before troubleshooting an issue. The list of current service bulletins, tech-
tips, and software updates can be viewed and downloaded from the Precor Connect web-
1
Personal Viewing System display.
