Prepare facility layout

Send pictures and videos of your facility to EGYM Order Management, showing the pathway from the delivery access point to the installation areas.
Define machine locations (refer to Machine space requirements).
- Contact your EGYM representative about a room plan; an EGYM room plan is required for orders of 3 or more machines.
- Follow the Fitness Hub placement recommendations to ensure accurate camera measurements.
Confirm the floor has sufficient load-bearing capacity for the machines (refer to Machine weights and dimensions).
Install a grounded power outlet within 1 m (3 ft) of each machine location.
Plan the WiFi router location or LAN cable routing.
Note
LAN connection is required for the Fitness Hub. A 2 m LAN cable is included with a Fitness Hub order.
- Define the LAN cable route to each machine (refer to LAN requirements), or
- Define the EGYM router location within 15 m (50 ft) of the machines (refer to Wi-Fi requirements).
Prepare cable management (refer to Cable management options).

Prepare electrical infrastructure

Prepare internet connection

Secure a broadband connection with a bandwidth of at least 5 Mbit/s (download), 1 Mbit/s (upload) per EGYM machine (see Network requirements).

Contact your internet service provider as soon as possible. An active internet connection is required for installation.

Configure network

Make an appointment with a qualified IT technician.
Activate a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server.
- Set DHCP lease time to a maximum of 12 hours.
- Exclude IP address ranges 10.9.x.x and 10.11.x.x in the DHCP server.
- Ensure the IP address pool is large enough for 2x the number of planned machines (>100 recommended).
Configure firewall to allow EGYM IP addresses and ports.

Prepare login method

Select login method
Confirm whether RFID wristbands are included in your order or need to be ordered separately, or
Verify third-party RFID compatibility.

Order Fitness Hub scale
