Notes on Power Meter use
When the system is powered up, it automatically scans for a power meter,
indicated by the blue flashing light.
If you don’t use a power meter, ignore
the search and the blinking blue light will quit in 1 minute.
The first time you connect your power meter during this search period, you
must use the IR app to initiate the connection. When pairing is successful,
the blinking blue turns to solid blue. Your power meter must be awake to
pair.
NOTE: Once your power meter has been paired for the first time, the
SmartPower device will remember it in future sessions. When the system is
searching for a power meter, it wi
ll find it automatically if it’s awake.
If you
choose to use a different power meter, use the IR app to pair the new
one. Using the IR app, you can easily connect any power meter within
range.
The SmartPower is optimized for use with a power meter. It is
recommended to connect the power meter to the SmartPower unit rather
than directly to the training app. When the power meter is connected, it
will become the default power source, eliminating the need to calibrate the
system. NOTE: the power data is smoothed inside the unit and will appear
slightly different than raw power.
When a power meter is connected (solid blue LED), the power meter will
constantly monitor and adjust resistance to stay close to the target. In most
cases, you will not need to calibrate or adjust the system for accuracy. If
you experience problems with accuracy or response time (even with the
power meter connected) The system may need calibration.
