PowerPod V3 Calibration-ride
Posted: Fri Mar 04, 2022 11:30 am
Good afternoon John,
Yesterday a 100km ride and today a 55km ride with my road-bike. PowerPod V3 and FW 9.00. I started a calibration ride because I wanted a new profile for my road-bike with a TT-mount. Since I use the TT-mount I got no correct heartrate data (mostly one value 225 during the whole ride), so after FW 9.00 I wanted to correct this. I used "Better"in the Setup and de count to 50 worked, I stopped and turned the bike. The count to 100 worked and then the "real watts" on the Garmin Edge 1030 Plus were shown.
When finishing the ride I saw on my phone in Garmin Connect that there where changes in the CdA every 5km. On my PC I saw in Isaac that there where several files for the ride; every 5km a new file. On my Garmin Edge 1030 Plus I have a lap for distance 5km, I think this will be of influence.
Today I did the 55km ride and the same happened. The heartrate problem is also not solved. Yesterday during the 100km ride I used the handlebar mount. Today I used the TT-mount.
I have not changed the other profiles for my MTB and the Tacx-trainer, they work fine.
I am sure I am doing something wrong. I did not had this experience before using FW 9.00. Can you give me some help ?
With kind Regards,
Paul
