iBike Dash 2nd screen bug

Post by RGA »

iBike Dash App Version 1.0.14

Want to report a possible bug in the software. On the second display screen (map on top and gauge on bottom), I configured the gauge to display Power instead of Speed but the needle barely moves even though on Screen one it shows 100+ Watts of power. Coasting the needle drops to zero. I suspect that it is a scaling issue with the gauge such as the reading should be 100 but instead it's displaying 10.

I haven't checked the third display screen but I guess I should.

What you're seeing is a % FTP (functional threshold power) screen.

If you're not seeing needle movement, it's because your actual wattage is below 50% of your FTP.

So, for example, if you are putting out 100W of power, but your FTP is 170W, then the needle will show 100/170 = 59%, which barely moves the gauge.

Do a Fitness Test to measure your FTP. Then, you should see correct needle movement on this screen.

Hmm, ok. I've done a fitness test before 2 months ago but I have lost a lot of weight since then. I'll do another test and see what happens.

Thanks for your reply.
