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.

Table 4. Minimum requirements for operation

Equipment Rate of Motion
AMT

56 strides per minute (SPM)

EFX

40 strides per minute (SPM)

Climber

30 steps per minute

Bike

20 revolutions per minute (RPM)

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.
