AeroPod, PowerPod and Newton

Ahh...you are poking deep into the innards of our system :-) The 6 variables go all the way back to our original iBike product from 2005. I don't want to describe too explicitly how the variables relate; suffice it to say that there are two variables (CdA and Crr) that can be user-adjusted after the...

John - Yes - both flavors of these are accelerometer based sensors. Another question - If I choose to have both the Garmin and Wahoo sensors around, but this is the only difference that will be between two profiles will this work the same way that having two bikes with separate speed sensors and PP...

PowerStroke works in part by precisely measuring the time between the crank passing-by the same point on the bike. When we created PS it was simple: whenever the cadence magnet passed by the sensor a signal was sent. I don't know how either the Garmin or Wahoo cadence sensors work, but I suspect bot...

These ride files are fine and do not show any of the problems of your prior rides.

You are getting very peculiar slope spikes. Please show photos of how your unit is attached.

Make sure your unit cannot rotate at all...

Instructions attached.

Something appears to be wrong with your wind sensor. Please email technicalsupport@velocomp.com for next steps.

Hi John I finally got the DFPM calibration completed although I could not pair the Assioma pedals to the Powerpod so I recorded a sperate ride file and merged them into Isaac. The was not much impact to the profiles which underlines the strength of the Velocomp calibration routine. I’ve enclosed th...

Please post profiles from your two bikes, and any available ride files.

Please post the 01-04-2023 file. You posted the 02-04 file twice.

Thank you John. I'll recheck the battery in the cadence sensor. I don't recall that even being connected to the PP. I do have a second cadence sensor . That's correct, my street is flat . I snugged up the PP but concerned not to over tighten. Oh , I remember, just prior to turning on my street, I n...

4/13: your PP was knocked out of position at the end of the ride. Notice that, on the flats at the end of your ride, your slope was 8% :-). That is what caused high watts. Make sure your PP is solidly attached and cannot rotate. Watts will be zero when cadence is zero. Make sure your cadence sensor ...

You can try using this setup, but because the mount is attached to the aero bars, it is very likely that the aero bars flex, and will cause problems for AeroPod. The best place to attach AP is underneath the stem. We have a mounting solution for this configuration; email technicalsupport@velocomp.co...

I can't tell from the photos how the mount is attached to the handlebars. If the mount is stiffly attached the handlebars this is fine; if the mount is attached to the aero bars this won't work correctly, because the aero bars flex. Please show photos showing how mount is attached to bike handlebars.

Hi, I am using Mac OS 12.01 I'm not going to buy a Windows license just to use Isaac. I hope Isaac/Mac will be updated and available in the future. Yuichi You should be able to find Windows without any license fee. The fundamental problem with Isaac/Mac is the National Instruments drivers, which do...

Yesterday I encountered exactly the problem you described when attempting to download ride files on my Mac, running macOS 13 and Isaac/Mac. What version of macOS are you using? Unfortunately it appears that Isaac/Mac is not compatible with your version of macOS. You will need to do the same thing th...

Hi John I finally going to have a bit of time to do this DFPM calibration. In terms of pairing the Assioma pedals, do I actually need to do this via the PowerPod and then do a out and back ride. Before seeing your post I’d just downloaded the profile from the PowerPod and updated the DFPM 5 Chr ANT...

Hi John, I uploaded a video of the operation of Isaac to YouTube. https://youtu.be/w3TdUW2RhUY Yuichi Thank you for the video. Just to confirm: you are able to correctly get the serial number and firmware version of your PP, correct? There is one other thing to try: 1) Erase your ride files 2) Do a...

Don't know if this is the right forum to do this, but I'm selling my PowerPod. It has all the original bits plus Power Stroke and Mac key to download the files. Selling for 100€ plus shipping (non negotiable) https://files.fm/thumb_show.php?i=qkx3tkpb4 https://files.fm/thumb_show.php?i=tac9mmt8u ht...

Hey there How do you guys remove a broken pitot tube from the PP? It broke right above the thread. Gluing e.g. a chopstick to the pitot bit in the PP to be able and wind it out? As I am on vacation right now: What would I expect from the readings now that the pitot tube is gone? Will the PP recalib...

Yuichi

Please post screen shots showing your problem. Also: when you attempt to download the ride, does the green box around the USB icon disappear?

Sutorius wrote: ↑Mon Apr 03, 2023 6:50 pm I have used the command "Device/Erase All Ride Data", but didn't improve.

Did you do a new ride after executing the command?

If you can read your serial number, it is likely that the problem is an error in the file structure of your ride memory, making it impossible to download your ride. The solution is to use the command "Device/Erase All Ride Data". You'll lose your ride data, but hopefully this will fix thin...

Thank you John for looking into this, much appreciated. To confirm, ANT+ can connect to multiple devises at once where BLE only one device? Also, PowerPod only connects by way of ANT+? PP can connect either by ANT+ or BLE. I would connect only by ANT+; if you have connected through BLE, I would dis...

It looks like the Karoo 2 is a great bike computer, but their website sucks :-(. I had to fish around for 15 minutes to get the tech info I was seeking. It's not totally clear to me how Karoo gets its distance info--from GPS data, or from speed sensor data. Karoo 2 works both in BLE and ANT+ mode. I...

Everything is OK. Some years ago Garmin went to a 6 digit identifier for a wireless ID. You PP correctly reads that ID. However, Isaac is programmed to read/write 5 digit identifiers. So, it does not correctly report on-screen what is stored in PP, and it can't write 6 digit identifiers, either. How...
