Accessing Web Interface
Summary
One of the best features of the ProSmart console is the web access. If the treadmill is connected
to private use or club network, it can be accessed using a computer that is on the same network.
It is very important that the ProSmart has a stable internet connection for up to date profile
information and auto software updates. This section will explain how to put the ProSmart on the
network and access the web interface.
Network Basic Overview
Network connectivity can be wired through an ethernet cable or wireless. The network device
can vary depending on the network. Typical devices are switch, router, or modem. This involves
one or more devices using Cat6 wires to connect at a unified point. This device allows the
devices on the network to talk to each other. The network device is also responsible for routing
other devices to the internet. Each device is assigned an IP (Internet Protocol) address. This
address is used when trying to communicate with another device.
The current standard is IPv4 which used 4 octets or 12-digit address in the form: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.
The same concepts apply and the wireless router will route traffic to the internet. In fitness clubs,
it is more common that access points are used which are wired to the switch or router. Use this
address to access the ProSmart console from a web browser.
