Power Requirements

Treadmill Dedicated Circuit Requirement:

Star Trac requires a 20 amp dedicated circuit and dedicated neutral for each treadmill installed

and operated. Each treadmill requires an outlet of which line and neutral contacts are wired to

the electrical power distribution box (circuit breaker box) with dedicated wires. Both the line and

neutral wire from an outlet for a treadmill shall be isolated from all other outlet contacts other

than the connection at the electrical power distribution box. The neutral bar of the electrical

power distribution box requires a connection to the earth ground.

Furthermore, there shall be no other electrical device operated off this circuit; just the single

treadmill. The earth ground connection of the outlet may be shared with other outlets’ earth

ground connections through either metal conduit or ground wire.

Each dedicated circuit requires 12 gauge wire for the line and neutral wires for runs less than

100 feet, as measured from the circuit breaker to the termination of the plug (outlet) connecting

to the treadmill. Runs greater than 100 feet require 10 gauge wires, and a run from a circuit

breaker shall not be greater than 200 feet.

Failure to meet these requirements may cause intermittent treadmill shut-down and potential

damage to the treadmill’s electronic components, and consequently, void the warranty.

Last updated 11/20/15

Product Placement

Star Trac recommends that treadmills be spaced a minimum of 20.0 inches (0.5 m) apart to

allow safe and easy ingress and egress. More importantly, there must be at least 48 inches

(1.25 m) of free space behind the treadmill.

The E-Series treadmill measures: 85” l by 36.0” w (215.9 x 91.5cm). See the following graph for

proper equipment spacing requirements:

Preventative Maintenance

This section provides a list of factory recommended PM requirements. Long-term effects and

cost comparisons usually favor following a regular preventative maintenance schedule over

performing maintenance actions only when the system fails.

Preventative Maintenance Cautions

 While maintaining equipment you will want to avoid spraying any liquids directly onto any surface

of the unit. Always spray cleaning solutions onto a clean towel first then wipe the unit.

 While vacuuming the floor area using an upright vacuum, avoid getting the power cord caught in

the beater-brush of the vacuum.

 Disconnect the power cord from the wall before vacuuming under the shroud.

 Use extreme caution while vacuuming around wires and/or electrical components under the

shroud.

 Do not attempt to clean the running belt with a mop

 Do not apply any cleaners, protectants or solutions onto the running belt (i.e. Armor All,

SlickStuff, belt dressing, etc.)

Treadmill Systems

Power System

The power system supplies AC and DC voltage to different components of the treadmill. There

are two parts of the power system, external power and internal power.

There are two sub-systems:

 External

 Internal

External

The external power is anything outside of the treadmill that supplies power.

Components:

 Breaker Box

 Wall Breaker

 Power Lines

 Dedicated/isolated lines

 Neutral Line

 Hot Line

 Ground Line

 Receptacle

Internal Power

The internal power is the components of the treadmill that are involved with power distribution.

Components:

 Power Cord

 On/Off Switch

 Onboard Circuit Breaker

 EMI Filter

 MCB

 Power Supply

 Data Cable

 Display Electronics

Last updated 11/20/15

Power Flow Diagrams

1. AC power goes from the

breaker box, through the

circuit breaker and power

lines to the power outlet.

2. AC power continues up

through the power cord,

through the onboard circuit

breaker, on/off switch, and

EMI filter to get to the MCB.

3. The MCB converts the

power to 12.6 volt VDC to

send up the display cable

to power up the display

electronics.

4. The MCB doubles the

incoming voltage (110 volt

systems only) and sends

220 VAC to the power the

drive motor. The MCB also

sends 6 VDC to power the

RPM sensor.

5. The MCB sends VAC to

power the elevation motor.

The power being sent will

depend on the input voltage.

110 VAC treadmills have a

110 volt elevation motor.

220 VAC treadmills have a

220 VAC elevation motor.

The MCB also sends 5 VDC

to the elevation sensor

(potentiometer).

6. The MCB passes along the

input VAC to the power

supply. The power supply

then converts the input

voltage to 12 VDC and

sends it up to the display

electronics to power the

fans (PVS kit or embedded

touch screen).

Last updated 11/20/15

Display System

The display system controls and commands most of the functions of the treadmill. It is the user

interface and the brain of the treadmill.

There are five sub systems:

1. Treadmill Operation

2. Watch Dog

3. Personal Cooling Fans

4. Heart Rate

5. Hot Bar/Warm Bar

Treadmill Operation

Treadmill operation is those functions and components that the user interacts with while working

out on the treadmill.

Components:

 Main Keypad (Display Panel)

 Display Electronics

 Data Cable

Watch Dog

The watch dog is the circuit/software inside the display electronics that monitors the different

systems in the treadmill. If there are any anomalies, the watch dog triggers any of the various

codes that will show up on the screen.

Components:

 Display Electronics

Personal Cooling Fans

This system is used to keep the users cool.

Components:

 Display electronics

 Fan Keypad

 Fans

Last updated 11/20/15

Heart Rate

The users have 2 types of heart rate to use, contact or Polar. Contact heart rate is used by

grabbing onto to the metal contacts on the hot/warm bar. Polar is a wireless system that

requires the user to wear the Polar chest strap.

Components:

 Display Electronics

 Contact Heart Rate Board

 Contact Heart Rate Cables

 Contact Heart Rate Grips

 Polar Receiver

Hot /Warm Bar

The Hot/Warm bar is the bar that is right in front of the user that has multiple functions and

components.

Warm Bar Components:

Last updated 11/20/15

Display System Power Flow

1. The user presses the keypad to select programs, speed, elevation etc. Those

keystrokes are received by the display electronics which sends the necessary requests

down the data cable to the MCB.

2. The watch dog is a part of the display electronics that monitors the systems of the

treadmill and will shut down the system if there are any anomalies.

3. The user presses the fan keypad to turn the fans on/off or change the speeds. The

display electronics receives the signals and sends the appropriate VDC to the fans.

4. The user grips the contact heart rate grips. A small amount of voltage is sent through

the grips and wires to the contact heart rate board. The contact heart rate board

calculates the Beats Per Minute (BPM) and sends this information to the display

electronics. If the user is wearing a Polar chest strap, signals from the strap will be

received by the Polar receiver. Those signals are sent to the display. The display will

display the BPM of the user’s heart.

5. When the user presses the stop button, the circuit opens (confirm that) and the display

electronics triggers the treadmill to: (a) pause on the first press, (b) end the program on

the second press and (c) give a ‘NO STOP’ code if the key is held for longer than 2

number of seconds. If the lanyard is pulled, the emergency stop circuit opens up and a

signal is sent to the MCB to cut power to the drive circuit. The message “EMERGENCY

STOP, PRESS STOP TO RESET TREADMILL” will appear on the display electronics.

Drive System Power Flow

1. The user enters what speed

they want the treadmill to go

by pressing the speed keys or

entering the desired speed on

the number keypad.

2. The display electronics

registers the requests and

send information down to the

MCB.

3. The MCB sends VAC to turn

the drive motor.

4. The drive motor pulley is

connected to the headroller..

5. As the drive motor turns the

RPM sensor signal is sent to

the MCB.

6. The MCB sends the signal

back to the display

electronics.

7. The display electronics

calculates that information to

determine the speed of the

drive motor. If the drive

motor is running too fast/slow,

the display will send signals to

the MCB to adjust the voltage

going to the drive motor until

the speed is correct.
