Snapshot CdA

Post by andrewlees »

I'm bit unclear with the instructions for the Snapshot CdA. Step 3 says "Select the power window on your Newton Screen". I'm not exactly sure what the "power window" is. Can anyone guide me a bit further here? I see there is the CdA on/off in the racer menu. Is that it?
Thanks in advance.

CdA on/off is one of the menus that needs to be on.
Then have power in the middle window with HR/CAD in the bottom window. The top window can be set for speed, tilt or wind.
Now when coasting for about 15 seconds the bottom window will show CdA, then show HR for a few seconds then back to showing CdA.
Careful that the left crank arm doesn't pass the the CAD pickup magnet otherwise Newton will not think you're coasting.

Try a few coasts sitting upright, then a few tucked down. You'll see the difference.

Oohhh, I see!! It pops up automatically! Ok, I guess I should be on my bike playing with it and not on my couch to see it in action.
Thanks for the help!
