Getting Started

The P20 console offers administrators and members the

ability to set defaults that meet their specific needs.

Activating the Console for Self-Powered
Equipment

Precor equipment is either self-powered or externally

powered using an optional power adapter. Self-powered

equipment requires the user exercise to initialize the console.

This section provides more detail about powering equipment.

Activating the Console for Self-Powered Equipment

On self-powered equipment, when a user starts exercising,

the console initializes and displays the Welcome banner. A

minimum rate of motion must be maintained for the

Welcome banner to appear. The words PEDAL FASTER (or

the equivalent message depending on the equipment type)

appear in the display when the rate of motion drops below the

minimum requirements.
The equipment saves its battery charge by moving into a

shutdown mode. If the user does not maintain the minimum

rate of motion, a 30-second shutdown process begins.
In this mode, the console displays a countdown indicator and

ignores all keypresses. If no movement is detected or the rate

of motion remains below the minimum, the indicator changes

as the countdown continues.
Note: The user can resume exercising before the countdown

period elapses and the program will continue from the point

at which it was paused.
