IMPORTANT:
LOCATE MOUNT SO THAT NEWTON HAS UNOBSTRUCTED VIEW OF WIND
Make sure to remove the double-sticky tape from the mount top and bottom. This tape
keeps the mount solidly attached to the handlebars and stem.
3. ATTACH SPEED/CADENCE SENSOR TO BIKE
Attach your Newton speed/cadence sensor, and speed and cadence magnets, to your bike,
using the printed instructions included separately.
IMPORTANT
: MAKE SURE THE MAGNETS PASS BY THEIR RESPECTIVE PROBES WITH A
SEPARATION OF ABOUT 1-2 COIN WIDTHS. THIS SMALL GAP ASSURES THAT THE PROBES
WILL DETECT THE MAGNET PULSES
.
TIP
: THE SPEED/CADENCE SENSOR SHIPPED WITH YOUR NEWTON HAS BEEN PRE-PAIRED
AT THE FACTORY AND IS READY TO USE.
A BULLSEYE APPEARS IN THE MAIN
WINDOW WHEN THE NEWTON RECEIVES SIGNALS FROM YOUR SENSOR.
Wake up your Newton by clicking the center button. Spin the rear wheel and confirm that
speed is being shown in the top window
4. INITIAL CALIBRATION: JUST RIDE YOUR BIKE!
Wake-up your Newton by clicking any button. Then, start riding.
For the first 5 minutes
of your first ride, “---W” and “Cal” flash in the center window
, while the initial
calibration process is being done.
After 5 minutes of riding, power (in watts) will be displayed in the center window. If you’re
riding on a road bike, your Newton now reports watts with good accuracy and consistency.
5. USE ISAAC TO GET BETTER/BEST
ACCURACY
ISAAC software refines the accuracy and consistency of your Newton, as well as customizes
it for other types of bikes and riding conditions. See the next section for details.
After completing these FAST START steps you can begin using your Newton on the road.
