1.2 OPERATION MODES
At power-up the console software performs self-tests and initialization, then displays the Start-Up screen. From the Start-Up
screen the software can enter one of three modes, based on which keys are pressed. Simultaneously pressing and
holding the
“SPEED DOWN” and “ENTER” or “SPEED DOWN” AND “ELEVATION UP” keys for 5 seconds will
cause the software to enter, respectively, User Engineering Mode or Engineering Mode. Pressing any of the Program
Select keys or the
“START” key will cause the software to enter the normal User Mode of operation.

1.3 GENERAL NOTES
• Outputs to motor controller disabled in hardware while in the safety startup screen. All control outputs and speed
inputs must go inactive before advancement to the next screen
• Failure of program checksum, ram check and register check will cause rapid beeping with no display/function
(initial startup check).
• Initial failure of critical non-volatile parameter load/verify will cause re-initialization to default values. Message
““RRSSTTNNOOVVRRAAMM””will appear briefly in the alphanumeric display.
• Repeat failure of critical non-volatile load/verify will cause system to jump to error screen (hard failure).
• Failure of non-critical non-volatile load/verify will briefly display ““NNOOVVRRAAMMFFAAIILLUURREE””in the alphanumeric display
and will re-initialize non-critical parameters to default values (allowing the treadmill to operate).
2. USER ENGINEERING MODE
The user must hold down “ENTER” and “SPEED DOWN” keys for 5 seconds while at the Startup Screen. The console
will beep twice and ““UUSSEERREENNGGMMOODDEE””will appear in the Message Center. After another five seconds the console will
beep twice and ““UUNNIITTSSEENNGG//MMEETTRRIICC””will appear in the Message Center.

Alphanumeric “DISPLAY TEST”
7-Segments
Display test initially comes up with all displays on and the message ““DDIISSPPLLAAYYTTEESSTT””toggling in the alpha numeric with
the last line being fully illuminated. An auto-increment feature can be used to sequence through the display test or the
auto-increment feature can be used.
Each display will be tested during display test in the following order (when auto increment is used):
• Dot Matrix Display’s
• Alpha Numeric Display and Discrete LED’s
• Seven Segment Display’s
3.2.2.1 DOT MATRIX
The dot matrix display test will proceed in the following manner:
• Row from bottom to top, single color (green then red).
• Columns from left to right, single color (green then red).
• Full display, single colors (green, red and then amber). Each color takes 14 key presses to clear.
Dot matrix display left in all on, amber color mode.
3.2.2.2 ALPHANUMERIC
The alpha numeric display test will proceed in the following manner:
• Count from 0 to 9, all displays.
• Segments clockwise from top segment, all displays (including decimal point).
• All segments in a single character illuminate, left to right.
• All characters on
Alphanumeric returns to the toggling message ““DDIISSPPLLAAYYTTEESSTT””and then all segments on.

The seven-segment display test will proceed in the following manner:
• Count from 0 to 9, all displays.
• Segments clockwise from top segment, all displays (including decimal point).
• All segments in a single character illuminate, left to right, in the following order: elevation window and speed window.
• All characters on
Seven-segment display test leaves all displays on.
KEYS
• START Key – Starts display test auto increment or resumes auto increment at current location.
• ENTER Key – Stop display test auto increment at current location.
• STOP Key – Jumps out of display test.
• UP/DOWN Keys - Stop auto increment and steps through display test in forward or reverse direction.
3.2.3 KEYBOARD TEST
Display indicates the pressed key in the alphanumeric display. The stop key jumps out of the key test and as such verifies
its operation.

3.2.6 BURN-IN TEST
The burn in mode can be used to run tests that require the treadmill to continually run. The program is based on the 5K
Run. Segment changes occur every 0.1 mi. or 0.1 km, depending on the treadmill configuration. When the system
reaches the last segment, it loops to the first segment. Speed at program start is at 1/2 maximum speed. The user
can adjust speed and incline. The program returns to the preset incline upon segment completion. Keyboard functions
are the same as in normal operating mode.

The magnet count adjustment allows use of different number of speed sensor pulses per belt roller revolution allowing
for use with different configured motor controllers.
Current magnet count displayed in the Speed window..
3.4.8 P20 EFFECTIVE DIAMETER
The effective diameter value is used to set the distance per magnet count used in the speed calculations. Adjust this
value to compensate for different roller diameters/belt thickness and, in the case of motor mounted speed sensors,
adjust for pulley ratios.
Current value is displayed in the Speed window.
3.4.9 P21 PWM START SPEED
PWM start speed is the PWM at which the belt begins to move. This setting is used to calibrate the PWM output to
