Hi,
i did the AP calibration with the new Velocomp garmin app.
I tried to follow the screen and i think i did it ok.
In the first step doing the "first 50%" the screen DID NOT show the figures..it only says "ride to the 50%" and there is a below bar that suggests that the calibration is being done. Then the screen also tells you to stop and back....again there is no figures..so i follow the "below bar" and thats it.
When done inmediately starts to show you the slope, wind and power. As i dont have a dpfm meter in this bike i assumed that is ok to not show the CDA and the AP is like a Powerpod. Ok with that.
John, can you please the files. MAybe the power numbers are a bit low.
I have no Powerstroke data as i had in my previous and beloved PPv5. Is there any addciontoal setup to do?
thanks

Re: AP new calbration - new garmin connect app
You used the Velocomp app calibration correctly! It won't show data during the calibration process...
I looked at your ride file. You have an extremely low CdA. Are you riding a TT bike? If so, how tall are you?
If you aren't riding a TT bike, then what kind of bike do you have?

Re: AP new calbration - new garmin connect app
Your CdA is too low. Load this profile into your AP using the command Edit/Edit Profiles/Import. Then, connect your unit to VA and load the profile into your unit. You should get higher watts...
Also attached is the corrected 7km ride file with your new profile.

Re: AP new calbration - new garmin connect app
got it!
i will be posting a new ride wth the updted profile.
By the way, the IQ app is no configurable as any fields i already have (traffic, tpms, etc)
It would be great to have the option to select which data you desire.... watts, cda, slope, ta.
Actually you must have one big field with all the data.
For example...the slope data coming from AP/PP is great and i use it in the hills climbs sections...now in the middle of the ride i need to go to the dedicated screen where i have the "velocomp field".... not confortable.
Also, the Newton Tracker app. I tried to nstall in the garmn edge. I ve an APK file you sent me some time ago (ts not at the Garmin Play and not n this forum as i searched carefully) and it can not be installed as it says its and old version and not supported in the actual Android,
thanks
