Chapter 4

Self-Powered Features

Important: This chapter of the manual describes Precor fitness equipment that can operate without being connected to AC power. This includes units equipped with P30 or P20 consoles. However, P80 consoles must be connected to AC power through their power supplies to operate. For this reason, this chapter does not apply to units equipped with P80 consoles.

On self-powered equipment, the system initializes and displays the Welcome screen when a user starts exercising. A minimum rate of motion must be maintained for the banner to appear, as shown in the following table. When a person meets the requirements, the power that is generated allows the equipment to function properly.

Informational displays appear when the battery is low or when the rate of motion drops below the minimum requirements. The display explains what to do to retain power. If the messages are ignored, the equipment begins shutdown procedures to maintain the charge of the battery. Refer to Informational Displays Prior to Shutdown.

An optional power adapter can be purchased and provides sustained power to the equipment. If you plan to change the club settings, the power adapter is highly recommended. To purchase the optional power adapter, check with your dealer. Refer to Obtaining Service.
