I was given said treadmill, and hope to use the motor and motor control board in a lathe, but without keeping the treadmill upper control board and controls/display. I had hoped that the treadmill had an MC-60 or MC-2100, but no luck. I have not been able to read the board number from the board, and cannot identify it from any of the many ebay ads for similar control boards.
I have found a manual which suggests that console cable B3 is "speed control", B6 is "RPM" (which I'm guessing might be connected to a reed switch next to the roller pulley) and B10 is "PWM". "Correct voltage" for B3 is listed as zero volts (so I don't know how that can "control" anything) and for B10 is 5V, presumably that is PWM, and I don't know what frequency is required. Another thread here suggests that RPM feedback is critical for function of these boards, so just providing a PWM signal won't be sufficient.
Can anyone here identify that board (or guess the identity), or provide more information about the console <-> control board interface? Or would anyone like to swap this board set for an MC-60 or MC-2100?
Thanks
