AeroPod, PowerPod and Newton

It looks like you have 3 separate profiles.

You should find .ibr ride files when you hit the "Download" button. Please send screen shots of what you see when you hit this button. If you have .ibr ride files then please post them

This message means your unit has been moved and is significantly out of calibration.

Please do a new cal ride, then post a ride file afterwards.

Your wind scaling factor is wrong.

Corrected profile and ride file are attached.

CdA is not set by o&b ride, but rather by your setup. How tall are you, and is your bike a road bike or TT bike?

Hi John, here you have 2 files. I was riding today and near the one-hour the figures went crazy. The power went up and the wind showed always 0 and sometimes strong headwind. I continued my ride, and power off the pp. Some minutes later i turned it on but te figures still were bad and i decided to ...

Did a usual ride in Central Park today and PP had not responded at all two weeks ago but I kept it plugged in and rode 12mi 3/15 with normal power curves except for way high at the beginning (850W just for a minute or so) then everything seemed normal. Today in the first 6 mi lap seemed really low ...

If cadence isn't recorded then PS won't work.

I would check/replace the battery in your cadence sensor.

We have been working on a new Mac/PC app for AeroPod, called "Velocomp Aero" Velocomp Aero will have much of the same interface as Isaac, but the new app will be customized to provide much easier and more detailed information regarding aero features such as CdA, lap stats, and more. Here's...

If you have a DFPM paired to your PowerPod, then the power transmitted by PowerPod to the Garmin is from your DFPM. There is no adjustment you need to make. It work like a charm! I just need to pair my HRM and powerpod and that’s it, but not luck transmit for AERPOD APP, I have my powerpod ble pair...

No; PP does not broadcast any wind, CdA data in BLE format. You have to connect to your 1040 by ANT+; when you do, you will be able to receive the data in the AeroPod 2.0 app.

We will investigate

Good Afternoon John, PowerPod V3 with PStroke. Road-bike with flatbar. Can you give my ride-file a quick-scan. I did a 100Km ride. First 2 hours wind (Beaufort 4) in front. After that mostly the wind from behind. After 2,5 hours the power-values went up; irrational values, 500-600W instead of 150-1...

You confuse me enormously. You posted a photo of your Pinarello TT bike just above but say your ride file is from a MTB. I looked at your ride file. It appears to be from your TT bike, and if so its CdA is too high; it is set for a road bike. I used the "Device/Check Calibration" Isaac fea...

Thanks John & Tom!

My camber MTB bike have 2 suspension front fork and rear. So that I can use powerpod in road bike as CDA MESSURE with my Garmin 1030? How it’s the procedure to do that? What about road dogma65 accuarate versus DFPM? Thank you. Unless both front and rear forks are locked, you will likely get comprom...

Hmm...Tom normally responds in a few hours. I will check with him.

Make sure his responses aren't going into your spam folder.

Thank you; this is good information. Here is what appears to be going on: 1) On your MTB your lockout seems to not totally prevent your front fork from moving up and down. In general, your PP works well on your MTB. However, at the end of your climb, where you have a really steep slope, your front f...

Please email tgore@velocomp.com for best information about your unit.

Please do the following: 1) Remove your PP from the mountain bike where you are posting ride files 2) Attach the removed PP to Isaac and change its profile to an unused profile, using the command Edit/Edit Profiles/Set Active Profile. For example, if your PP for your MTB is set to profile 1, change ...

Garmin may have changed its reporting system. We only report fully/partly charged status only.

I have no idea what they are reporting for software version.

I have looked at your ride files and something sticks out: most of the time your bike speed is only about 4 mph. Also: there are gross discrepancies between your elevation-measured slope and the accelerometer slope. Is this ride from a mountain bike? If so do you have your front fork locked-up? If t...

You did not do as I asked.

You provided profiles 1 and 2, but did not provide profiles 3 and 4.

This will go much faster if you provide what I request.

1. Yes 2 PP, the number one if you see pictures on my road bikes. This PP never allow me download files. The number 2 are for my MTB Bikes, a Stumpjumper and a Camber, all files come from it. 2 those two file are from PP2 bought from stumjumper and Camber. 3. no i could load the file for my unit PP...

I go out to the bike park, and wipe all bought two PP. And star again. I bring 3 of my bikes 2 MTB PP 2. And my road bike Pinareello F8 PP 1. Looks de PP2 record ok. PP 1 don’t record nothing. I didn’t see your message before. I am sincerely confused: 1). You have not, until this post, explained th...

Thanks!

I have responded to you by email.

I find some files on my powerpod2 stumjumper There is hope! One of your ride files had a working profile in it. Do the following: 1) Copy the attached profile on to your desktop 2) Connect PP to Isaac 3). Double click on the profile. This will add it to your "Edit/Edit Profiles" profile l...

First thing I need to do it right my my O&B right. Really want to make this thing really work. Second maybe I can offer send my two units and have a for the +5 gen aeropod, maybe better way to do the things. Yes, I want it to work for you too! Please see if there are any .ibr ride files in your...

Please post a few ride files, if you have any.

I am traveling but will try to respond in the next day or so.
