AeroPod, PowerPod and Newton

Problem solved: uninstalled then reinstalled everything.

Re: Isaac 5 for Windows--AeroPod FW now downloadable

Yikes, never seen this before. I will ask our developer.

Has your developer figured this out yet?

I've tried three times to install the new Isaac 5 with admin privileges, and I keep getting this message. I even rebooted my computer and stopped all other apps. What's up with this?

New ETA for Windows yet?

Thanks for your feedback. The one thing we have learned through the years is that, no matter how we design a mount, there will be situations where the mount won't work. We will add additional product information to our website regarding the TT mount. An easy workaround, if your bolts are too big to...

The TT mount does not work at all for either my TT road bike or my TT track bike for several reasons (the main one being the size of the bolts being to big to fit through your TT mount), and the only way I can see to make it work for either one is new TT bars for both, and I'm not about to do that. ...

Sorry to hop into this thread, similar question, may as well group them. For an OUTDOOR velodrome, where I've booked out the whole track, and there is some wind, is it best to do the calibration protocol with the turnaround? Many thanks in advance Russell If you're riding in an outdoor velodrome, t...

Why are the Isaac screens different? Or is the new screen an unreleased feature?

Who is this for? I already have a Newton +, and I can see a very similar Isaac webpage to the one shown on the Newton/PowerPod Feature Upgrades webpage. On both webpages, I have the same 3 horizontal graphs, and I can select the same 3 data sets as shown in the image on the Newton/PowerPod Feature U...

Most important: once you've got your Newton dialed-ing, THERE IS NO REASON TO DO A NEW CAL RIDE! The new FW is intended to assist people who have never set up a Newton before. What you mean here is that there is no reason to do a new Cal Ride per profile unless something changes, right? Like riding...

You need to be careful with your settings as you have the tire size set to 26 x 2.35. If so then your Crr is quite a bit higher. The devil is in the details. :) Thanks. I measured tire size precisely as you recommended in an earlier post. And it was off by one centimeter from the measurement I got ...

OK. I went through the whole process once again, and I believe I did everything right this time and under close to ideal conditions. The only thing that looks off to me is the Wind Scaling number. After entering my personal data using Device/Setup Device and completing the Cal Ride, WS was 1.139. Af...

1. After I made the FW update there is a new screen in the setup display "On/of xy" - it is between wind cal and cal ride. WHAT IS IT FOR? What can I switch on and off here? That's on/off for Fast Recording. See "Newton Instructions," p. 42. This mode is for those who have purch...

Hmm, the out/back ride you sent was not the original as recorded and it isn't a "real" cal ride. The recorded ride had an original WS of 2.2. After check calibration it drops to 1.186 and correctly so. I'm not sure why the numbers skew like they do. So I'm wondering where the WS of 2.2 ca...

I've observed the exact same thing--except in my case, I'm getting a signal from a DFPM to both my Garmin and my Newton--and have asked this question but have not received an answer. The DFPM data is sometimes significantly different when recorded on each of these head units. I've been advised that ...

Assuming every cal ride will have some difference (WS 1.000 vs 1.001 for example) the result after a cal ride should be different than the result before a cal ride. You can only confirm this by extracting the profile from the Newton before the ride and after the ride. OK. You've given me a clue, an...

The doc states that Fast Rec option is for PowerStroke models only (p. 34). The doc also states that when the PowerStroke key is installed, the Newton settings will be changed so that Fast Rec will be normally "on" (p. 42). I do not have PowerStroke, yet Fast Rec keeps coming "on.&quo...

Fernando, I see you did your Cal Ride before Device/Setup Device rather than after. Is there some advantage to that? Does it make a difference? One can do it either way, right? I tried creating new profiles yesterday and today, but I did Device/Setup Device before the Cal Ride. I noticed both times ...

I agree there are issues here and likely their basis is in the original cal ride. Since you did a hard reset after experiencing a lock up I suggest you do another controlled cal ride. As far as the ride you uploaded, I think 12 miles is way too long to think about checking calibration on an out/bac...

Here you go:

I'm starting this as a new topic though I started it under "Tilt Cal R.I.P."-- http://www.ibikeforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=55&t=2800&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=30#p15553 --since my concerns goes beyond Tilt Cal. Today I decided to create a new profile by starting from scratch, ...

... but a this point I am unable to exit from the set up screens and return to ibike use... I end up having to do a hard reset to return to the usual ride data display... what is going on here? This just happened to me. I was trying to create a new profile from scratch and after the Cal ride and th...

If you have a properly calibrated DFPM (recently serviced, and zero offset done properly) then the easiest way is to fine-tune your Newton is with your DFPM. I would do a 5 mile long, out-and-back ride. Then, I would use the Check Calibration feature. (3.) The reason I'm doing this is to make sure ...

Coast downs are still there, for those of you on the "lunatic fringe" :D You did not mention those of us on the lunatic fringe who sometimes ride with both a Newton+ and a DFPM for purposes of finetuning CdA. May I assume that we can still get the best calibrations using a DFPM? Yes, you ...

Last I checked, it was turn back crank 8 - 10 times.

Thanks in advance!

I exchanged mine a few months ago. All fixed! Looks great now. I'm a very, very happy camper!

I'm certainly far from being an expert in how Newton+ works, but when I read that "sensor resolution is increased, resulting in higher measurement sensitivity" and that "wind speed measurement accuracy is significantly improved," these sound like things that may go into the calcu...

on Tue Aug 07, 2012 11:22 am Polarized screens are on the way. We have a supplier who needed three tries to get right what they did ten thousand times with the gen iii. Is there an update on this? As you might imagine, it is still really inconvenient that with my Newton+ I have to bend way over to ...
