EXTERNAL ZERO RESET
SUMMARY:
From time to time, the watts readings on the console may seem to be too high, too low or may not be reading at all. This
may be caused from the bikes being moved frequently (in clubs where the room is multiple usage), shipping of the bikes, etc. This section
is to be used to bring the watt readings back in alignment, by bringing the power meter and the console back in line and to clean up the
data.
Note: We currently use firmware that automatically performs a zero reset 1 minute after the bike has been rode, but this function
may be needed in future if you have to perform this task. If you don’t know if the bike has already, refer to the firmware updating section.
DETAILS:
1.
Activate the console by pressing any button
(BACKLIGHT, STAGE, or AVG/END) on the console.
2.
Press the STAGE button to bring up the WARM UP
mode on the console.
3.
Pedal the power meter until you start to see data on your
console. Note: You must crank the power meter really well,
(with your leg) with force or the Zero Reset process may fail.
4.
Place the power meter in the 6 o’clock position.
5. With NO weight on the pedal, press and hold the
BACKLIGHT button on the console until ZERO RESET shows
up on the screen and dashes are moving across the screen,
indicating that the Zero Reset process is taking place.
6.
The Zero Reset process will take a few seconds. If the Zero
Reset was performed correctly, you will see the word SUCCESS
and a numerical calculation on the screen will appear. The
number should be between 790 and 990. If it is not within this
range, try and rest. If the word FAILED appears on the screen,
don’t be alarmed. Ensure that the crank was in the 6 o’clock
position and NO weight is on the pedal and try again.
Note: If it
continues to fail, reference trouble shooting area.
