Once the CAB is hooked up you will need to run the IR emitter cable down the machine to the base of the cardio. There it will connect to either the set top box or a cat5/6 cable for sending the signal to an AV closet. Tip: since the IR wire is very thin and easily damaged it is better to run the emitter wire through the machine.
HOW IT WORKS The Precor console can be configured to tune antenna signals directly, or it can be configured to operate directly with either of these Set Top Boxes (no CAB required): DirecTV Enseo The Precor Media Adapter console sends IR control signals to these STBs via an IR Emitter connected to a cable from the console.

The console must be set up for the correct mapping of channel names to channel numbers, for whatever cable/sat service being used at its location. This setup is pretty much the same in a CAB application as it is in an application where the console directly controls an Enseo or DirecTV STB, the one exception is that the CAB requires all channels be mapped to the Enseo STB model in the Precor setup.

It’s kind of like a spreadsheet – one simply needs to enter appropriate info into each of the cells to create a channel lineup. ENSEO must always be selected as the STB Model because CAB can understand/interpret only the ENSEO commands coming out of the console’s IR Blaster cable.

Troubleshooting Guide: 1. Double button presses – Some set top boxes respond to more than one of the IR codes that we send out. If you notice that pressing a channel button on the console results in multiple presses, simply remove the 2 screws that hold the lid on the CAB and turn on dip switch 2 and 4.

e. No Continuity between CAB and IR emitter – In some circumstances utilizing the “Far” set top box scenario, the CAT5/6 cable between the set top box and the CAB may not provide full continuity through wall plates etc. It may be helpful to re-locate the STB at the base of the cardio and re-test.
