Exporting DFPM power for Strava

Hi all,

I just got a DFPM to use in conjunction with my Newton. I realized that Strava picks up on the Newton power figures instead of the DFPM numbers, even if it's included in the .csv upload file. Is there a way that I can set the preference in Isaac to have the DFPM numbers uploaded, or do some manual excel wizardry to make it so?

Thanks in advance!
Isaac

Anybody able to shed some help and lend a hand? I'm loving my Newton and so I would like to keep using it as a head unit, getting this fixed would make it perfect for my needs.

Thanks in advance.

In the cdv file you export for Strava, you will see two columns, one for Newton power (column D) and one for DFPM power (column L).

Copy-paste the entries from column L into column D, starting with row 6, the first row that includes a recorded power number.

Hi John,

Thanks for the suggestion. I attempted to do just that, but when I uploaded it it says 'Bad FIle Data".

I noticed that my Newton power is in column C and not D as you mentioned, could it be some formatting issue on my end?

Problem solved. I found that exporting as a TCX file from Isaac picks up only the DFPM values. Works like a charm when imported into Strava.

Thanks again.
