Running Belt Troubleshooting

The TRM700/800 series treadmill provide the following diagnostic tools to help isolate and resolve running belt issues:

• Belt Rating parameter that indicates the condition of the running belt.
• Diagnostics Belt Speed Test can be used to monitor the drive motor load current (Higher than typical motor current indicates a worn belt/deck condition)
• On P62, P80, and P82 consoles, the Club Setting > Maintenance menu provides additional diagnostics to help determine the condition of the running belt and deck: Recommended Action, Operating Condition. and Belt Rating status information.

Belt Rating Information

• Belt Rating indicates the condition of the belt ranging from 10 (New) to 0 (Fully worn):
  • 10 - New Belt
  • 1 or 0:- Fully worn, replace the belt
• Belt Rating parameter can be viewed in the following menus:
  • P10, P30, P30i and P31: Information Display (65): > Belt Rating
  • P62, P80, and P82: Club Settings (5651565) > Maintenance menu > Belt Rating
• The amount of belt/deck friction increases as the belt rating number approaches 0. As the friction increases so does the amount of motor current required to move the belt.Typically cleaning the belt and deck will reduce friction causing the drive motor to work less resulting in a higher belt rating number.
• Belt rating is an algorithm that incorporates the average drive motor load current (and other parameters) of the last 100 5.5 mph to 12.5 mph workouts to derive the belt rating wear number.
• P10, P30, P30i and P31: The Belt Rating menu is also used to clear the history and reset the belt rating number of averages to 10. The service tech should reset the belt rating after each belt/deck replacement (hold QUICKSTART down).
• When the belt rating reaches 1 or 0, the ASLActive Status Light: Service and maintenance status light. (Active Status Light)state will go to the blue flashing state.
• The ASL will automatically change back to blue solid when the belt rating has moved above 1 (2 thru 10).

Procedure

1. Go to the console service menu and read the Belt Rating parameter:

P10, P30, P30i and P31 consoles: Information Displayy (65) > Belt Rating

P62, P80, and P82 consoles: Club Settings (5651565) > Maintenance menu > Belt Rating

2. Do the troubleshooting instruction for the current Belt Rating number:

Belt Rating 2 thru 10:

1. Clean the belt and deck, see Running Belt and Deck Cleaning Procedure.
2. On P10, P30, P30i and P31 consoles. Reset the Belt rating to 10 by holding down the QUICKSTART key while viewing the Information Display > Belt Rating parameter.
3. On P62, P80, and P82 consoles: Reset the Next Maintenance Due (Club Settings (5651565) > Maintenance > Recommended Action > Next Maintenance Due) and Operating Condition (Club Settings (5651565) > Maintenance > Recommended Action > Operating Condition).
4. Run a manual workout between 6 and 11 mph and verify that the Belt Rating is a higher number and that the ASL has returned to Solid Blue.
5. If the ASL light has returned to the Pulsing Blue state, replace the belt and deck surface (either flip the deck or replace deck if both surfaces are used.).

Belt Ratings 1 and 0:

1. Replace the belt and deck surface (either flip the deck or replace deck if both surfaces are used.).
2. On P10, P30, P30i and P31 consoles. Reset the Belt rating to 10 by holding down the QUICKSTART key while viewing the Belt Rating parameter (Information Display > Belt Rating).
3. On P62, P80, and P82 consoles: Reset the Next Maintenance Due (Club Settings (5651565) > Maintenance > Recommended Action > Next Maintenance Due) and Operating Condition (Club Settings (5651565) > Maintenance > Recommended Action > Operating Condition).
4. Run a manual workout between 6 and 11 mph and verify that the Belt Rating is a higher number and that the ASL state has returned and remains Solid Blue.
