The Matrix PCTV combines the multimedia capabilities and Internet connectivity of a tablet computer with the high-
resolution picture of a broadcast TV, bringing them directly to a facility's cardiovascular equipment.
The Matrix Fitness PCTV system is powered by Netpulse and delivers:
• An interactive media platform with a touchscreen interface
• Thousands of On-Demand TV shows, On-Demand Music Videos and Live TV
• Individual login to track and store your workout information
• Additional customization through Netpulse's website
This document sets forth the requirements and best practices that will ensure the highest availability and reliability
of the PCTV by Matrix Fitness experience for facility members and staff.
The PCTV System, powered by Netpulse, can be setup via a wired or wireless system. Based on the needs of the
facility, the facility will determine which setup is to be installed.
IMPORTANT: Many of the components and kits that are sent by Matrix Fitness for the PCTV setup, including
overlays, brackets, and wires are used for multiple Matrix Fitness products. Not all parts sent will be used for the
PCTV by Matrix Fitness feature. Be sure to read carefully through all setup steps to confirm which cables and
components are needed and which components are to be set aside.
