Re: Working with Velocomp Aero - some fundamental questions

Press-hold up arrow of Newton to enter Setup.

Scroll with the up arrow until you find the "Eras Data" screen. Click center button. "no" flashes. Click up arrow so "yes" flashes. Click center button to erase data.

No need to use Isaac or VA to erase data!

Re: Ignorance is Bliss

Your wind sensor is not functioning properly. It is under-reporting wind. This is the cause of your low watts.

Re: Velocomp Aero is replacing Isaac

Isaac will continue to be available; what's different is that we won't be updating it if OS changes are required.

We will continue to add features to VA. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Re: Pre buy questions

1). AeroPod compares applied force measurements from your standard direct force power meter (crank/pedal) to opposing force measurements made by AeroPod electronics. From this comparison the CdA number is computed in real time 2) Yes, you need a conventional direct force power meter (DFPM) 3) PowerP...

Re: PP Loses all profiles after not charging for 3 months

Previous rides? Even from 3 months ago. there could be another source to recover PP profiles. Old ride files might also have the profile, if nothing else changed on the bike/rider. Or am I mistaken? The first choice would be the PP NVRAM, then a fall back would be old ride files. NVRAM will not nec...

Re: PP Loses all profiles after not charging for 3 months

Yes, profiles are stored in NVRAM.

Do a hard reset of your unit (press-hold button for 12 seconds, until light goes out briefly and then resumes flashing, then let go of button).

Try searching for your profiles afterwards; they should be there.

Re: Calibration support against DFPM

In looking at your ride file I see that you had, one time only, a 4 second interval where your DFPM power was a bit higher than your PP power. Two points: 1) Assessing cycling performance (or power meter performance) on the basis of a single 4-second burst of power is not terribly meaningful 2) At e...

Your ride file shows that your average wind speed is a bit higher than your average bike speed.

If your PP is unresponsive, do a hard reset of it: press-hold button for about 12 seconds, until light goes out briefly and then starts flashing again. Release the button.
