System Errors
The Anti-Gravity Treadmill software has built in error checking to ensure all systems are
operating within specifications. If an error is detected, an “Unexpected Error” screen will be
displayed. There will be a text description of the detected error. If you see such a screen, write
down the error message and a description of the circumstances under which it occurred.
The error may be the result of an unexpected anomaly that sometimes occurs with complex
computer controlled devices. if this is the case, it is often sufficient to simply cycle the power
from the display console. Oftentimes this will clear the error and correct the problem. If the error
persists, AlterG service should be contacted and the circumstances under which the error
occurs and the Diagnostic Code should be relayed to the technician.
Although certainly not common, the two diagnostic descriptions you are most likely to see are
the Woodway Timed Out and the Micro Timed Out error codes.
System Fatal Error – Woodway Timed Out
The treadmill operates in a timer configuration. If the treadmill does not get messages from the
PC in a certain amount of time, it will go into its safety routine and not respond to commands. In
this case you will see the “Woodway Timed Out” message.
System Fatal Error – Micro Timed Out
The microcontroller, which controls the pressure system, operates on a timer loop. If it doesn’t
hear from the PC within a certain amount of time, it will perform its safety routine, which is to
fully close the valve and turn the blower off. If the PC doesn’t hear from the microcontroller
within a certain amount of time, you will see the “Micro Timed Out” error message.
