Consoles
Basic operation of a console
The purpose of this section is to describe the operation and maintenance of the treadmill base,
however it would be difficult to explain the base operation without referring to the console controls.
This section will explain basic functions that apply to all models of consoles. For specific details
about a particular model of console (P10, P30, P80), refer to the applicable console manual.
The Controls
All consoles provide user input (keypad functions), user display (LED display / user feedback),
automated control (heart rate program, interval program) and service software routines (tests,
settings, and information).
The keypad functions can vary between different console models, however the basic functions that
all consoles have are QuickStart, Incline (up or down) and Speed (up or down).
The Display
The display features can vary between different console models, however the information conveyed
by those displays are very similar.
Service software routines are handled exactly the same for all console models. Entering into
Hardware Validation tests, Club Parameter settings, or Information Display is also the same and is
called Standardized Service Access Codes.
The service software and standard access codes are described in detail in Standardized Service
Access Codes of this manual.
