- Select the desired bike profile.
- Choose the type of sensor you wish to connect (e.g., HeartRate, Speed, Cadence, Spd&Cad, Power).
- The device will search for available sensors. Select the desired scanned sensor to pair with the device.
Add New Sensor and Turn off Old Sensor: In the sensor management interface, you can select a sensor and choose to connect a new sensor or turn off an existing one.
Power Calibration: For power meters, select the Power sensor and then choose 'Calibrate' from the pop-up window. This function is available for ANT+ power meters; Bluetooth power meters do not support this feature.
Starting a Ride
Once the device is turned on, it will automatically search for satellite signals. This process may take 15-90 seconds to acquire a signal. Ensure you have a stable satellite signal before starting your ride.
Display and Button Usage:
