2. Press and hold QuickStart while in the belt rating menu to reset the rating to 10. When the
rating is reset, the algorithm takes this into account, and loads new average data into the
equations. In this way if the deck and belt are truly worn out the blue pulsing light will return
after 1-2 months.
Troubleshooting the Auto Stop Feature
Auto stop is a feature incorporated into current Precor Commercial Treadmills. This is a safety
feature that shuts off a treadmill that has been abandoned while the belt is running. Exclusive of
the first sixty seconds after a workout has begun or resumed, any 30 second window with no
user detected will prompt a 10 second countdown and then a full stop. The detection is done
through software, and has been tested to detect person 50 lbs (22.7kg) or greater walking with a
normal cadence.
The feature is selectable ON or OFF in the facility settings menus. It is default from the factory
set to ON, and it is recommended that this be left this way.
Procedure:
1. Access the service access software (hardware validation tests), and select the Auto Stop
test. When the feature is enabled the P10 or P30 consoles will display USER DETECTED if
motion is detected from the running deck or NO USER DETECTED if no motion is detected
from the running deck. It may take 5 or 6 steps for the USER DETECTED to be displayed.
This cycle will start over if the speed is changed. On the P80 console when START is
pressed, after a few steps the status line will say USER DETECTED and the STEP COUNT
will show the steps. If steps are not detected NO USER DETECTED will be displayed in the
status field.
2. If the Auto Stop Feature did not pass the test replace the MC.
Troubleshooting Heart Rate Issues
Hand Held Heart Rate Does Not Work
1. Place your hands on the HHHR (Hand Held Heart Rate) contacts, making full contact with
both top and bottom contacts for at least 15 seconds.
If the unit displays a heart rate, no problem exists.
If the unit does not display a heart rate value within this time, continue to step 2.
2. Set the on/off switch to the off position, wait 10 seconds, then set the on/off switch to the on
position and repeat step 1.
If the HHHR functions correctly, then the processor on the HR board was in a "latched-up"
condition, and cycling the power cleared the condition.
If the HHHR does not function correctly, continue with step 3.
3. Verify that the HHHR board has the correct operating voltage. Connect a voltmeter to Vdc
and Ground on the Power/Signal connector. The voltage should read between 4.5 and
5.5VDC.
