WHAT YOU NEED
For the Gymtech Music-TV setup, you need the following hardware:
Gymtech Music-TV Player
TV-screens and/or Projector + Projector screen
Audio system
Internet connection
In order to get a better understanding of the functionality of the items listed above, a brief
introduction is provided below.
GYMTECH MUSIC-TV PLAYER
The system comes with this player:
Fujitsu introduces this player which comes in a metal case (19x25x5.2 centimeter / 7.5x9.5x2
inch) with a 1 TB 24/7 hard disk drive (HDD). The Player comes pre-loaded with Windows 7
embedded and the fully configured Studio Fitness Music-TV software. The Player is pre-loaded
with all content (i.e. no streaming) and whenever new content is available, the player will
automatically download and store it locally on the hard drive.
A constant internet connection is therefore a necessity.
The player is set to search for updates at night. Besides traffic generated by downloading new
content, the system will not use much internet bandwidth.

TV-SCREENS
The TV-screens are the output device, which shows the content from the player. Basically you
can connect any TV-screen to the player, however we recommend that you only buy TV-screens
of good quality. The better quality of the TV-screen, the better quality of the images shown on the
screen.
The TV-screen must not have a “sleep”-function that you cannot disable and the TV-screen has to
be digital. You can connect any number of TV-screens to the player, this will simply require a
device that splits the signal from the player to the number of TV-screens.
We recommend that you buy large TV-screens, the bigger, the better.
PROJECTOR
The projector is the output device used to take the display from the player and project it onto a
projector screen. The projector is connected to the player via DVI-I, HDMI or VGA. You control
the projector manually with the included remote controller. Contact your hardware-provider for
more information.
PROJECTOR SCREEN
The screen is used for displaying the projected image. It is typically a projector-screen with a
frame, as seen in the picture below. Contact your hardware-provider for more information.

AUDIO SYSTEM
The audio system is used to play the sound of the music videos. The audio system is connected to
the player via an audio cable. Most use a pre-installed audio system.
INTERNET
The Gymtech Music-TV player need continuous access to the internet as changes and updates
are provided online. Without internet access, operating stability cannot be guaranteed, new
content cannot be downloaded and support cannot be provided.
In other words, the Gymtech Music-TV platform requires a cabled internet connection.
In daily operation, the internet download speed is recommended to be at least 2 Megabits per
second. Port 80 or Port 21 are used, these are standard ports for HTML and FTP.
If the network security is tightened, you need to open up communications for the addresses
below:

PREPARATIONS

8 | P a g e
INTRODUCING FIVE PREPARATIONAL STEPS
Knowing what hardware you need and having chosen the perfect setup for your gym/gyms, it is
time to start planning the installation. Below, we have listed five steps that will help you be fully
prepared for the installation. In the case that you already have TV-screens or a projector and
projector screen installed, only steps 1, 4, and 5 are relevant but we do recommend going
through all steps.
STEP 1: PLACEMENT OF PLAYER
Our recommendation: close/next to the audio system (allows staff to reboot the system if need
be, power will typically already be accessible and it is easy to connect the audio cable). Make sure
to hide the installation in order to protect it from irrelevant people tampering with it.
STEP 2: PLACEMENT OF SCREEN
Some considerations regarding placement of screens are listed below.
WALL CHOICE
We recommend placing the TV-screens and/or projector-screens on the walls from which most
of your members can see them. It can be close to your cardio-equipment but also in the area
with weights.
SCREEN AND AMBIENT LIGHT
We recommend placing the TV-screens and/or projector-screens in places with as little direct
light as possible. However with TV-screens it is not as crucial as with projector-screens. If you
chose projector-screens and know you have a lot of ambient light in the area where you want to
place it, select the right projector.
STEP 3: PLACEMENT OF PROJECTOR
INSTALLATION HEIGHT
The projector screen is recommended to be placed so that the bottom of the projector is in line
with the top of the projector-screen. Alternatively, and if the projector is placed higher, the
projector can correct keystone distortion by +/- 20% for perfect installation adjustment to the
screen. In other words, it is possible to get a high quality image even when placing the projector

slightly higher. Information on how to do this can typically be found in the projector user manual
or ask your preferred technician.
STEP 4: POWER AND INTERNET
Prior to installation it is of key importance to establish power for the following:
Gymtech Music-TV Player
TV-screens and/or projector
Make sure to establish power sockets as close to the above items as possible. Besides power, a
cabled internet connection should be established as close to the player as possible.
STEP 5: CHECK YOUR CABLES
You need the following cables to install the Gymtech Music-TV player:
DVI-I, VGA cable or HDMI cable
1
(Video cable)
Audio cable
Power cable
Internet cable
The video cable is to be connected between player and TV-screens/projector (NOTE: use the
correct adapter/cable). The audio cable is to be connected between player and audio system
(see System Overview above). When you have determined where to place the player, as well as
the screens and/or the projector and projector screen, it is time to determine the length of the
cables.

We will provide either a DVI-I to VGA or a DVI-I to HDMI adapter, just let us know which one you need
