“Remaining” indicates how much space is left
to store ride data. The CycleOps PowerBeam
TM
Pro
comes with enough room to store about 15 hours of
ride information. “Clear Ride Data” deletes all stored
rides on the CycleOps PowerBeam
TM
Pro computer.
Make sure you no longer need a ride or have down-
loaded it to your computer before choosing “Clear”.
Only the ride data is cleared; workouts uploaded
from PowerAgent
TM
, calibration information and
odometer data are still stored.
“Odometer” displays the total number of miles (or
kilometers) you have ridden on the CycleOps Power-
Beam
TM
Pro trainer.
5.3 Calibration
The CycleOps PowerBeam
TM
Pro
resistance unit is
calibrated at the factory. This enables it to accurately
measure power using similar technology to a power
meter. Rolling resistance is calibrated into the each
individual unit, but can vary depending on tire type,
tire pressure, clamping pressure and other condi-
tions. To obtain the most accurate results, follow the
subsequent guidelines:
Perform either the Roll Down Calibration or
•
Manual Calibration described below.
Infl ate tires to the rated pressure.
•
Attach the bicycle according to the instructions
•
in this guide (see Section 1.3).
Clamp the resistance unit to the rear tire accord-
•
ing to the instructions in this guide (see Section
1.3).
For mountain bicycles, use smooth tires. Knobby
•
tires are noisy and contribute to inaccuracies.
5.3.1 Roll Down Calibration
Before entering the calibration routine, warm up
1.
the CycleOps PowerBeam
TM
Pro
and tires by rid-
ing the system for fi ve minutes.
From the main menu, choose Setup Mode.
2.
From the setup menu, choose Calibration.
3.
From the calibration menu, choose Roll Down
4.
Calibration.
The CycleOps PowerBeam
5.
TM
Pro computer will in-
struct you to pedal to 18 mph. Your current speed
is displayed as well.
Once at 18 mph, hold this speed for two minutes.
6.
A count down timer displays your remaining
time.
After two minutes, immediately stop pedaling
7.
and allow the system to coast to a complete stop.
Do not touch or disturb the resistance unit while
8.
the system is coasting. Do not pedal while the
system is coasting. Do not hit the brakes.
After the unit comes to a complete stop, the
9.
CycleOps PowerBeam
TM
Pro computer will dis-
play “Calibration Passed.” If you do not wait the
full two minutes or another issue occurs during
calibration, the CycleOps PowerBeam
TM
Pro com-
puter will display “Calibration Failed.” If calibra-
tion fails, repeat the calibration. If it continues to
fail, contact Saris Cycling Group.
The unique rolling resistance calibration is now
10.
incorporated into the factory calibration. This
calibration will remain in the system until anoth-
er calibration is performed.
