WHAT YOU NEED

For the Gymtech Music-TV setup, you need the following hardware:

 Gymtech Music-TV Player
 TV-screens and/or Projector + Projector screen
 Audio system
 Internet connection

In order to get a better understanding of the functionality of the items listed above, a brief
introduction is provided below.

GYMTECH MUSIC-TV PLAYER

The system comes with this player:

Fujitsu introduces this player which comes in a metal case (19x25x5.2 centimeter / 7.5x9.5x2
inch) with a 1 TB 24/7 hard disk drive (HDD). The Player comes pre-loaded with Windows 7
embedded and the fully configured Studio Fitness Music-TV software. The Player is pre-loaded
with all content (i.e. no streaming) and whenever new content is available, the player will
automatically download and store it locally on the hard drive.

A constant internet connection is therefore a necessity.

The player is set to search for updates at night. Besides traffic generated by downloading new
content, the system will not use much internet bandwidth.

TV-SCREENS

The TV-screens are the output device, which shows the content from the player. Basically you
can connect any TV-screen to the player, however we recommend that you only buy TV-screens
of good quality. The better quality of the TV-screen, the better quality of the images shown on the
screen.

The TV-screen must not have a “sleep”-function that you cannot disable and the TV-screen has to
be digital. You can connect any number of TV-screens to the player, this will simply require a
device that splits the signal from the player to the number of TV-screens.

We recommend that you buy large TV-screens, the bigger, the better.

PROJECTOR

The projector is the output device used to take the display from the player and project it onto a
projector screen. The projector is connected to the player via DVI-I, HDMI or VGA. You control
the projector manually with the included remote controller. Contact your hardware-provider for
more information.

PROJECTOR SCREEN

The screen is used for displaying the projected image. It is typically a projector-screen with a
frame, as seen in the picture below. Contact your hardware-provider for more information.
