Re: OUB Calibration help
You are right, I attached the ride while I was doing the calibration, I wrongly thought it will have the OUB in it, but it as you said it had my previous calibration which in terms of watts it could be right but in regards to wind was only reported wind from the only one side so I wanted to recalibr...

OUB Calibration help
Hi John, I did an OUB calibration ride today, could you please check if the end result is ok? If I try to apply this profile to a long ride I did and it decreases my avg power from 190 to about 90 which I am sure it is way too low, even for my age and especially for the effort I put into that ride. ...

Thanks John, I will use this profile. I am a little curious of why such thing happened... Let me explain: for the same bike and unit I got a profile corrected from you some time ago and the wind correction on that one is 1.212, compared to what you corrected yesterday which is 2.963 I find it quite ...

PPV4 always wind in the back!
Hi, Something strange started to happen to my otherwise reliable PPV4. It started a week ago when I had trouble connecting it, in the process I had to remove the ANT+ connection from my Garmin 550 and since that, no matter what I do, I can only connect the pod through BT. Tried finding the pod on my...

Hi to all,
I was just updated to FW 9.0, so I came here to see what is all about, but I believe it is so new as I see no notice of that

Hi John, After last ride a couple of days ago, in which the unit recorded all well on my Garmin device, I cannot connect it to Isaac at all.

Re: Crr, CdA + calibration advice?
Your ride files all look fine, and the calibrations are all good. This is easy to see because your wind speed is approximately the same as your bike speed, as it should be for an out-and-back ride. John, starting from your quote above, what approximately means, I see sometimes things like speed 28 ...

Hi John, Today is a sunny with no wind day so I went out and did a calibration ride which came with these results: Aero 0.366 Wind Scaling 1.000 CdA 0.366 Fric 11.212 The one that you amended it for me after that ride was: Aero 0.439 Wind Scaling 1.212 CdA 0.362 Fric 11.158 If I apply this new calib...

Re: Power very fluctuating so I did a calibration ride but...
But I still have a question:
I go out on a ride with PP recording, Than I reach the place I want to do a calibration. As PP is still recording and do not want to wait till it goes automatically on hybernation, how do I stop the recording and start O&B calibration? This is where I am not sure.

Re: Power very fluctuating so I did a calibration ride but...
I found an old reply also from you in this forum: If you are using FW 641, you can most definitely calibrate on the fly, without using Isaac. You press-hold the button for 4 seconds, to do a new scan (make sure there are no other bikes close by). The scan will force PP into an O&B calibration. t...

John, I remember reading somewhere that there is a button combination to start a Calibration Ride while out on a ride. Was I dreaming and there is only the procedure that has to be started from the computer?

Re: Isaac Mac and Catalina MacOS
Hmmm, although I can see your point, for some of us who solely rely on mac platform with impossibility to run Windoes under macos such a move would mean actually moving away from PowerPod and Aeropod... Quite unpleasant!
