DIALING-IN YOUR NEWTON’S CALIBRATION
FOR BETTER/BEST ACCURACY
You may select between three levels of accuracy/consistency for your Newton:
1)
Good
:
simply ride your bike with your Newton
. During the first 5 minutes of your first
ride you’ll see “cal” and “---W” flash as your Newton automatically calibrates itself.
After 5
minutes your calibration is finished and watts appear in the main screen.
For an average sized road cyclist (180 pounds, 25 pounds of bike and gear, 700 x 23C
wheels), your Newton watts measurements will be highly consistent, and wattage accuracy
will be good (wattage numbers may not be “perfect” but they will allow you to train and
race with excellent consistency).
Every Newton automatically calibrates itself for Good accuracy and consistency;
there is nothing extra you need to do
.
2)
Better
: Before or after your first ride use the “Device/Set Up Newton...” procedure in
ISAAC software to fine tune your Newton’s settings: units, rider weight, bike weight, ride
position, mount location, tire size, bike type, and road surface. “Set Up Newton” will refine
these parameters and will improve the accuracy of your Newton.
Select “Better
Accuracy”
in the final window of the Wizard.
3)
Best
: Select
“Best Accuracy”
in the final window of “Device/Setup Newton”. A 10
minute-long calibration ride (Cal Ride) refines your Newton sensor settings for maximum
accuracy. While it is NOT required to do a Cal Ride, we recommend doing one after you’ve
become acquainted with the Newton and ISAAC software (the Cal Ride takes only 10
minutes…).
