To establish a set of instructions for installing and activating Asset Management for Dealers and Users.
DESCRIPTION
The Remote Access Point (RAP) is a wireless access point which received data from transmission radios installed in Matrix 5 and 7 series
products. It is a standalone device (4” x 6” x 2”) that requires an Internet connection via a standard Ethernet cable. The RAP communicates
with BodyLAN™ enabled devices and sends it to the Matrix Asset Management network. The RAP requires only AC power and Internet
access to function. The RAP is embedded with a stripped down version of Windows XP, which runs the Matrix Asset Management application
(AHclient.exe). When powered up, the RAP will boot up to an embedded password protected shell.
To determine how many RAPs a club needs, follow the rules below:
A Each floor with Asset Management enabled equipment should have a RAP.
B Each RAP requires an Ethernet drop (network connection) and 110V power outlet.
C A RAP has a line of site range of 150-400 feet (RAP to equipment). Obstructions will reduce the distance. It is acceptable to have
multiple RAPs in the same room for large workout areas.
D Walls made of metal or concrete greatly reduce the distance that the RAP covers. If equipment is separated by this type of wall, an
additional RAP may be needed for each room depending on the distance the equipment is located from the RAP.

1 Log into Asset Management at http://asset.johnsonfit.com.
2 Click on the CLUBS tab on the left side of the screen.
3 Click on CREATE NEW CLUB.
4 Determine the group for the club. Click FIND next to the GROUP tab, and select the correct country, region, state, etc. NOTE: If you
type in club information first and then switch the group information, all previously entered information will be lost.
5 Enter the Club Name into the Club Details Box.
6 Add a club location in the Club Locations box. Fill in all of the information available and save.
7 At this point, you will receive the Club ID number for the location. Enter multiple locations for a customer that has a franchise with multiple
locations under the same management to receive multiple Club IDs.
8 Add contact information for Customer Contacts using the Club Contacts Window. If there are multiple locations, indicate which club
each contact correlates to.
9 Click SAVE in the club details before returning to the main screen.
Once the Club ID has been setup for a new facility, a New User should be generated in Asset Management. This will indicate who at the club
will have access to the information generated in Asset Management. To generate a New User:

V2.2
VPN – HOW TO IMPLEMENT VIA DIRECT TO MATRIX ASSET MANAGEMENT DSL/
BROADBAND CONNECTION
VPN connectivity is used to transport data from the Matrix Asset Management server at your facility to the Matrix Asset Management centralized
servers. To get started, you need to provide network wiring from an interface (DSL router/Cable modem, switch or router) on your network to
the Matrix Asset Management server. This must be an unassigned IP address that is accessible on the network.
In order to address your security concerns, no connections are expected from an external origin. It is the Matrix Asset Management server at
your facility that initiates connections. Traffic will flow on port 80:
If you are using firewall/filtering software on your network, traffic on the ports above must be allowed. Further technical detail is available in the
RAP Access Point manual.

About the Remote Access Point (RAP). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . pg 10
The Remote Access Point, or RAP, is a wireless access point for workgroups consisting of more than 100 people. It is a standalone device
(4” x 6” x 2”) that requires an Internet connection via a standard ethernet cable. The RAP communicates with BodyLAN™ - enabled devices and
securely offloads data from these devices and sends it to the Matrix Asset Management network. The RAP requires only AC power and Internet
access to function and has a range of 150-400 feet.
The RAP is embedded with a stripped down version of Windows XP, which runs the Matrix Asset Management application (AHclient.exe).
When powered up, the RAP will boot up to an embedded password-protected shell. Because the RAP runs from Flash memory, the operating
system and applications run off of protected, read-only mapped Flash memory, as such, cannot be corrupted or infected by a virus. A reboot of
the RAP will return it to its original factory state, with the exception of the configuration files that define the network connectivity.
The RAP is only capable of communicating with BodyLAN wireless devices and cannot be used for other wireless network types, such as WiFi.
Once the RAP is properly configured, it will operate the RF transceiver, collect data from sensors and transmit the data to the ActiHealth
servers at:
http://client.actihealth.net
http://fusion.actihealth.net
CONTENTS OF BOX
1 Remote Access Point (RAP)
1 Antenna
1 power cord with AC-DC converter (six feet in length)
1 Cat 5e network cable
Heavy duty adhesive strips for mounting (attached to the RAP)
4 mounting screws (for alternate mounting)
HOW DATA MOVES FROM THE RAP
The Remote Access Point actively listens for proprietary BodyLAN
RF data beacons. If there is a BodyLAN device beaconing, the RAP
will detect it. The RAP will wirelessly communicate with the device
and collect the data, repackage it, and transmit it via an HTTP POST
transaction to the Matrix Asset Management servers. The data is
then stored in the unique BodyLAN device storage location. All
communication between the RAP and the Matrix Asset Management
servers takes place over TCP port 80, and all transactions are initiated
as outbound HTTP requests from the RAP. There are no Matrix Asset
Management server-initiated transactions to the RAP.

SECTION C: REMOTE ACCESS POINT MANUAL
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q. Will the RAP work on a DHCP network?
A. Yes, by default it is configured for DHCP. However, the RAP needs to be able to send and receive HTTP traffic via
Port 80 to client.actihealth.net and fusion.actihealth.net. Proxies are allowed, but the RAP requires communication
both ways, and the above sites need to be “white listed”.
Q. Can the RAP be assigned a static IP so that I can bring it onto my network?
A. Yes. Please refer to RAP Configuration Settings and Details on page 15 of this document for information on
the parameters that need to be set if you do not use DHCP.
Q. What is the range of the RAP?
A. The RAP has an approximate range of 150-400 feet, depending on its line of sight. Position the antenna so that it
has a good view of the area to maximize its overall range.
Q. What do I need in order to install the RAP?
A. You need to have a data connection with Internet access. If using DHCP you can simply plug the RAP into your
network. The RAP works approximately 90% of the time out of the box with no configuration modifications. If you
have your network on a higher security level, you will have to “white list” client.actihealth.net and fusion.actihealth.net.
Please call FitLinxx Customer Care if you need more information.
Q. What wireless protocol does the RAP use to upload activity data, is it WiFi?
A. Although the RAP looks like a WiFi device, it uses a proprietary wireless protocol developed by Matrix Asset
Management called BodyLAN. It operates in the 2.4 GHZ ISM band and co-exists with WiFi, Bluetooth and digital
phones without interfering. The protocol is CE and FCC compliant, and holds FDA approvals as well.
Q. Can I set the RAP up wirelessly.
A. No. However, if you know the IP address of the RAP you can access it remotely and make changes. This
procedure is outlined in this document and can also be found in our upgrade instructions.
Q. What is the best location for the RAP?
A. Place the RAP in slow traffic areas such as the main lobby or office point of entry, time card punch clocks, break
rooms, cafeterias or wherever people spend time.
Q. At what point should I consider a RAP over the USB-connected access points?
A. The RAP should always be considered over the USB options when being used in a public place. Using a USB
connected access point where there are other applications running on the PC will limit the volume of devices it can
offload at any given time. Additionally, if it is on a PC that could go into sleep, hibernate or a security mode, the USB
access point may stop offloading.
As an appliance the RAP is typically less expensive than a USB access point when considered with the cost of a
dedicated PC. If you have a dedicated PC, it can be used with a USB access point instead of a RAP. However, you
should configure its settings so that it never sleeps, hibernates or shuts off the AHclient.exe application. Failure to do
this may result in data not being transferred to the web.
18
SECTION C: REMOTE ACCESS POINT MANUAL
Q. How does the RAP send Activity data to the web site?
A. It uses the ActiHealth client (AHclient.exe), which uses HTTP post/response, connecting to port 80 to post/
receive information through the Internet at ActiHealth servers:
A. You can plug in a USB or PS/2 keyboard and a monitor to directly access the RAP. If the RAP is currently running
when you attach the peripherals, please reboot by cycling its power. Once rebooted, you will have direct access to
the RAP.
You can also Telnet into the RAP, if you know the IP address of the device on your network. See the instructions in
this document beginning on page 5, Accessing and Navigating the RAP.
