USING CONTINUOUS CDA AND TIME
ADVANTAGE ON THE IAERO
Once you’ve set up your iAero and DFPM you can ride as usual:
1)
All traditional functions, measurements, and screens of the iBike are unchanged.
2) To enable on-screen CdA display, go to Setup/CdA. Press the center button, click
the up arrow to set CdA “On”, and click to accept.
3) With CdA “On”, the bottom window of your Power Screen will alternate between
cadence, heart rate, Continuous CdA, and Time Advantage.
4) When viewing the Power Screen, the power number displayed in the middle window
is the power reported by the DFPM.
5) Ride files will contain both iAero and DFPM information.
6) When bike speed is less than 15 mph Continuous CdA displayed will be your
baseline value.
7) When bike speed is less than 15 mph or total opposing wind speed is below 5 mph,
Time Advantage will not be changed.
8) To reset Time Advantage to zero, perform a Trip Reset.
Other important things to remember:
1) Continuous CdA and Time Advantage measurements are most accurate when riding
solo .
2) Continuous CdA and Time Advantage measurements probably won’t be accurate
when riding in a pack.
3) Continuous CdA and Time Advantage measurement accuracy will be adversely
affected by changes in frictional drag. For example, if you go from normal
pavement to soft dirt your CdA and Time Advantage measurements will be
inaccurate while you ride in the soft dirt.
4) For maximum accuracy you MUST be sure to let your iAero acclimate to outdoor
temperature AND to perform a wind offset calibration prior to each ride.
5) Make sure to zero-offset your DFPM prior to your ride.
6) Remember: the accuracy of the iAero/DFPM is highly dependent upon proper setup,
calibration, and use.
