Operating and Maintaining the P80 Console

Editing the Export/Import Channel File

Note: You will need to scan for channels before you can export the file. If you have not scanned for channels, refer to Channel Configurations in the preceding section.

Exporting the channel list from the fitness equipment creates a file called channel-list.ini. This file can be used to specify channel names in languages that are not yet supported by the P80 console.

To export this file from your console:

1.Enter your code to view System Settings. To locate your code, refer to Configuring the System Settings.

2.Insert a USB drive into the console.

3.On the Settings menu, touch System Settings.

4.On the System Settings menu, touch TV Settings, then Export/Import Channel Names.

5.When the box is lit, touch Export to USB. The channel-list.ini file is saved on your USB drive in the /precor folder.

6.Touch OK to return to the System Settings menu.

7.Touch Back twice to return to the Welcome screen.

Important: You must return to the Welcome screen before you remove the USB drive.

8.Remove the USB drive from the console and insert it into your computer.

To edit the file and reload it:

Note: You will need a UTF-8 capable editor program to open the channel-list.ini file. Such programs are available free on the internet.

1.Using the editor, open the channel-list.ini file and edit the channel names on the right side of the equal sign. Do not change the information on the left side of the equal sign, or the equal sign itself.

Important: Do not add or delete any channels from this list. This must only be done through Deleting a Channel.

2.Save the file using the same name and extension. Be sure it is in the /precor folder, and close the editor. This prevents read or write errors to the USB drive.

3.Remove the USB drive from your computer and reinsert it into the same console you used for your initial export.

4.Enter your code to view the System Settings.
