BEFORE YOU GET STARTED  
CHECK FACILITIES PREPAREDNESS  
For a proper installation, please read this guide thoroughly and follow the instructions. Star Trac’s  
goal is to help you have a successful and reliable installation, for this reason we have come up with  
some helpful tips and check list to accomplish this goal.  
EQUIPMENT LAYOUT  
Check to see that the equipment you will be adding the PVS to are placed where they will be used. It  
is recommended that you follow your installation guides for each one of your Star Trac pieces of  
equipment in making sure that there is ample space around them to ensure a safe and enjoyable  
experience.  
INPUT SIGNAL  
In the world of entertainment today you have many choices. Star Trac recommends you know what  
type of video signal (cable, analogue, digital, satellite, antenna) is in the club facility and if it has a  
good signal. Don’t forget every installation is different. Check to see that you have a coaxial cable  
connection at each location where a PVS will be installed.  
CABLING  
When Radio Frequency signals travel through cabling the signal will degrade over distance. Connec-  
tors may degrade the signal as well. Check each output before connecting to your PVS and make  
sure you have a clean strong signal to ensure an enjoyable experience. The Star Trac PVS requires  
a minimum signal strength of 45dBmV for analogue channels, and 40% for digital channels. Your  
club may require signal amplifiers to achieve a good strong signal. Star Trac recommends you use a  
qualified installer for your Audio Visual needs.  
ELECTRICAL RECEPTACLES  
The Personal Viewing Screen requires a plug-in 60 watt power supply to operate (included in each kit  
with the exception of the S-TRc). Check with your club facility to ensure ample electrical receptacles  
are placed next to the equipment for a safe and proper install. Check with your contractor to make  
sure you have enough power.

FAQ’s AND TROUBLESHOOTING  
Your Star Trac Personal Viewing Screen is designed with little maintenance in mind and rarely should you  
experience a problem once it is installed. However, you may find the cleaning and troubleshooting information  
in this section useful.  
We will also explain how to replace the headphone jack when it no longer provides good audio quality.  
Cleaning the Personal Viewing Screen  
Periodically dust the Personal Viewing Screen with a clean soft cloth.  
Each week or as needed, clean the unit with a mild soap and water solution. Lightly dampen a clean cloth  
with the solution and wipe the unit. Do not use too much solution on the cloth or spray cleaning solution  
onto the unit. Doing this could cause moisture to enter the controller and cause damage.  
Use eyeglass cleaner to remove stubborn dirt from the screen.  
Cautions:  
DO NOT use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners to clean the screen. DO NOT use any solvents such as alco-  
hol, paint thinner, or any acidic cleaners to clean the screen. This will void the warranty.
