Garmin Vector 2 / Newton 5+ Powerstroke calibration
Posted: Mon Jun 29, 2015 12:31 pm
Hi,
My wife bought me a set of Garmin Vector 2 pedals for my birthday and I would like to use them with my Newton 5+ Powerstroke.
Are these the current instructions for calibrating the devices to work together?

I suspect perhaps not as page 13 cites tilt calibration, and I thought tilt calibration is obsolete in firmware 5.0+?

Thanks,The calibration procedure for the Newton/WIRELESS DFPM combination is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM TYPICAL NEWTON CALIBRATION PROCEDURE:
a. Tilt calibration and Cal Wind are the same
b. A single calibration ride, 4 miles long, IS REQUIRED
c. The 4-mile ride is analyzed in Isaac software (Tools/Check Calibration…)
d. Baseline (normal) aerodynamic and frictional drag coefficients are determined by the Newton/DFPM data
