Qz will use the relays to write and read speed and inclination! Then it will send speed and inclination over wifi to zwift. Very easy ![]()
But you need to sold 4 wires on the treadmill console

Are you familiar with my console ?
I’m willing to take the chance and I have a solder gun and magnify glass from when I use to mess round with my computers.
But I still don’t understand how my TM will work automatically and pick up the incline/speeds from ZWIFT course so I don’t have to manually change the incline and speed on my TM.
I want ZWIFT to send it to my TM not QZ to ZWIFT,what good does that do me if I still have to change the incline and speed myself?
Thanks.
no i’m not familiar with your console. you have to do this by yourself, but it’s quite easy
yes qz receive the speed and inclination request from zwift and it sends to your treadmill and also the opposite at the same time! it’s the magic behind qz!
So how will I know which 4 wires to cut and solder if you don’t know my console ?
I hope I’m not driving you nuts because I’m driving myself nuts LOL.
You will need to isolate the wires linked to the + and - buttons at the bottom of the console and the relays will sit between the buttons and the circuit board.
As @Run.10K.Every.Day said ![]()
I suggest to open a thread on github on the qz page to don’t over post here
I have no clue about relays ,is that where the buttons make contact to send signal to TM to either go up or down?
I still don’t understand how the signals will be sent to QZ then to ZWIFT app, how ?
What in my TM will be sending signals to QZ and ZWIFT if there’s no wifi or BT on my TM after I cut and solder wires?
I have an account at github with my trading pine code. I’m there now.
Wouldn’t the best scenario be for someone to just rewrite one of the manual settings so I can enter whatever I want so I can mimic ZWIFT when using ZWIF runs?
You’ll need a BT enabled relay that QZ can interact with.
You can already this on qz with the fake treadmill setting. In this case you have to do everything manually but it works ![]()
OMG ,so you’re saying I have to get a bluetooth relay and solder to incline/speed buttons so that QZ can interact with TM and receive /transmit to ZWIFT ,am I correct, if yes ,why didn’t anyone say this before as I’m going bonkers here.
Robert, you said "You can already this on qz with the fake treadmill setting. In this case you have to do everything manually but it works "
I don’t want to do it manually as that’s what I’ll already be doing . I want it to to change my TM automatically with the ZWIF .
Do what with fake setting ,I thought I was just cutting and soldering wires,now you say fake settings .How to I change settings ??
So freaking confusing !
forget about the fake treadmill setting.
yes about your previous post!
Robert, can you make another video explaining what to do for Treadmills that don’t have Bluetooth. The video of yours I found on youtube {can’t post link here} only explains how to do it with a TM that has Bluetooth.
It will save you a lot of time and questions from morons like me.
Thanks
i don’t have a treadmill without bluetooth. the experience will be exactly the same.
Yes the QZ app will be the same ,but after cutting wires how will we know which type of bluetooth relays to buy { I looked them up and there are so many different types} and where to splice/solder them after cutting the 4 wires ,end of wire or can we splice /solder in middle of wire ,as my wires on handles {not console} are connected in middle of wire.
Your video doesn’t explain this.
I chose the handles and not the console because it is easier to get to.
Yes I have controls for incline and speed on both the console and the handles.
Also ,do I need to cut the 4 wires labeled incline 35 to 39 and 34 to 38 when there are wires labeled computer cables 33 to 31 ?
You sold each button to a relay of this https://amzn.eu/d/781H2va then I will tell you which index is each function so qz know that closing the relay 1 push the speed up of 0.1 and so on
I can’t help you with the wire of this right model, it could be dangerous to do remotely. Please double check them yourself . consider that qz will be in parallel to your buttons.

Hi Stuart,
Me again. Been trying to get this app to work.
I got everything to sync no problem , app sees my RUNN and polar arm strap for heart. Checked green.
I even calibrated it with configurEZ .
RUNN light blinks when tape gets between the left and right lights when TM running.
Thing is my avatar isn’t moving at all , I can see my heart beat upper left corner .
I tried everything here to troubleshoot several times including factory restore and redid everything over and over, including the link to the support page ,can’t post link .
I have a strong bluetooth signal and RUNN is inches away from electrical socket ,and it is placed in rear of TM .
When the RUNN arrived it looked like maybe it was used {Amazon} but I didn’t think that was {or is} the problem until I noticed the RUNN stops detecting after exactly a minute ,every time over and over but never loses connection to app ,it just stops detecting TM strips but they are placed correctly because it detects them when I start the RUNN ,it just stops every minute and I have to start it over every time.
I shut down all other apps and rebooted phone and just connected the RUNN still no good.
So I started the race when the strips were being detected for that minute it stays up, and still my avatar doesn’t move.
I also searched this forum for answers and see many with same problem of avatar not moving then thread dies off with no answers ,plus the search in this forum doesn’t work the best.
I really want to get this to work before I move onto the auto incline/speed with Robert.
Thanks…
Seriously, Is this gismo effective for aspiring DIY enthusiasts, or does it necessitate significant skills?
