Basic Operation Of A Console - Precor AMT12 base Service Manual

Basic operation of a console

The purpose of this section is to describe the operation and maintenance of the AMT base, however
it would be difficult to talk about the base without referring to console controls. Basic console
functions that apply to all models of consoles are discussed. For specific details about a particular
model of console (P10, P20, P30, P80), please refer to that console manual.
All basic consoles provide user input (keypad functions), user display (LED display / user
feedback), automated control (heart rate program, interval program) and service software routines
(tests, settings, and information).
The keypad functions can vary between different console models, however the basic functions that
all consoles have are Quickstart, Incline (up or down) and Resistance (up or down).
The display features can vary between different console models, however the information conveyed
by those displays are very similar.
Service software routines are handled exactly the same for all console models. Entering into
"Hardware Validation" tests, "Club Parameter" settings, or "Information Display" is also the same
and are called "Standardized Service Access Codes".
The service software and standard access codes are described in detail in the "Standardized
Service Access Codes", section 5 of this manual.
There are also "Standard Error Codes" which all console models follow. For a full listing of
"Standard Error Codes" used for this model see "troubleshooting", section 7 of this manual.
