Powerpod blinks orange

Post by Enriquecj »

Hi,

I have a powerpod which had worked quite well, however today I had a problem, I did an FTP test for 20 minutes (maximum effort on the bicycle), and the PP showed me low readings in my opinion, because during those 20 minutes according to the PP, I had an average power of 208 watts (BTW i don´t have a tailwind), which I found difficult to believe, because previous days I did pretty similar ride with a “normal” effort and I have an high average power (254 watts). Another thing i´ve noticed is that now the PP blinks in some kind of orange, so I try to reset the PP holding the PP buttom for 10 seconds until it flashing again, but this time starts to blinking green and red

What can I do?

Thank you

Have you uploaded the latest firmware update? If so, when?

Your wind scaling setting is causing the flashing light problem.

I've corrected your FTP file (nice test; about 278W!) and also your profile.

Once you load the corrected profile into your PowerPod the flashing red/green problem will disappear.
