6. TROUBLESHOOTING & CONFIGURATION
To correctly perform the troubleshooting operations, the following is required: Portable notebook,
USB - MINI USB cable and terminal software.
6.1 EXECUTABLE SW FOR DIAGNOSTICS WITH PC
1. Connect the USB cable and wait 5 seconds until the LCD lights up;
The LCD will begin to blink and the keypad will turn off after approx. 20/30 sec. However the equip -
ment will continue interacting with the PC.
2. The first time that the PC is connected with Skillmill or New Group Cycle (D92) or MYRUN
TECHNOGYM, the PC asks to install a driver for the detected device. Stop the automatic
search for the driver on Windows update and select the manual path on your PC where the
file was previously saved, which can be downloaded from TG Direct: myrun_usb_driver.inf.
The Skillmill, New Group Cycle (D92) and MYRUN TECHNOGYM drivers are the same, therefore
once the driver has been installed for one of the three machines listed, the procedure does not need to
be repeated for the other two.
In case of problems with the “ Terminal ” executable: close the program, disconnect the USB cable
and in sequence, reconnect the USB cable and restart the executable again.
The protocol described by the document defines the set of messages that can be sent to the equip-
ment. The messages are purely ASCII. This executable can be used to perform a series of reading
and diagnostic operations and receive the responses from the system.
3. Launch the software: Terminal.exe .
4. The first time the program is executed, set a few settings on the screen as shown below:
