Re: Re-calibration Necessary?
Whenever you move your Newton in a way that changes either its angle on the bike, or its position in the wind, it will require recalibration. Just to check, I have a RWS mounted (with which I performed the calibration ride a couple of years ago) which I now want to remove. Am I right in saying I do...

Tacx T1000 Antares Rollers
Hi,
Does anyone have a profile for Tacx T1000 Antares Rollers?
The Tacx T1000 Antares is really popular in Europe as it's a cheap but good product.
If we don't have a profile how would I go about making one? I don't own a DFPM as yet.
Thanks

Could this be correct? The only thing that has changed on t...

Guys in summary all I am asking is do people end up with 2 separate profiles in Issac if they run the Set-Up Device Wizard before the calibration ride as opposed to when the Dial-In Wizard fires up automatically after the calibration ride?
Am I the only one seeing this?

Rider weight will have a minor effect on frictional watts calculations. It's best to change it in the Advanced tab of Edit Profile (VERY CAREFULLY; make sure the button to the right of Crr is on "Hold"), then send the profile to the Newton. Thanks John, so when I change weight in the anal...

Does anyone know if it is possible to view Newton as a drive on Windows similar to the way you can if you plug in other USB devices like cameras and memory sticks?
I'm wondering if it's possible to view and copy the ride files directly within Windows.
Thanks
