I acquired a True 500 soft system treadmill a couple days ago. Wanted the parts to power a lathe and other power tools.
I hooked up the main board, control panel and drive motor. Tested out the drive motor through engineering mode. Works fine.
The plan is to build a variable dc power supply incorporating a tachometer with LED displays for both power and motor rpm.
Since the board already converts AC to DC, I was hoping to eliminate the treadmill's original control panel and digital display.
Was hoping someone had input on where to tap into the board with a linear rotary potentiometer, LED tachometer and voltmeter display.
Thank you in advance for any input.
