About Channel Types
With the addition of the Media Adapter, the P82 and P62 consoles support an extremely wide variety of television (TV) and video
formats. In addition, working with an external receiver, the console can support some formats in more than one way. For example, some
receivers can accept a combination of satellite and cable channels. When a channel type is selected, the receiver passes the signal to
the console through an HDMI cable.
The following figure and table show the possible paths that TV and video signals can take to reach Precor networked fitness consoles in
a typical facility.
Note Some of these signal paths may not be installed at your facility.
