AeroPod, PowerPod and Newton

Thanks John, will do.

Hello John, Last year I needed a battery replacement, now I was adjusting the PP and snugging the mount screw, and yes (1st time Ver 2?) I broke the Mount. How much for a Ver. 4 body ? And address to send .

Good day, John. Well, still not working. And went down the complete list of checks, as suggested by AI (ChatGpt). only one item left, un-install and re-install (that was a bite of a challenge the first time). Maybe I"ll save that for a rainy day. But, I have discovered , I can get the gps data ...

Thanks John, I'll let you know tomorrow , how smart it was. I've used it a lot, when setting up Linux computers.

Now I have AI, I presented the issue and got this response :It's frustrating when an app like Newton Tracker stops recording after a short period! This is a common issue with many recording apps on Android and can be caused by several factors. Here are some ideas and troubleshooting steps you can tr...

That's odd. It was working perfect, on my last ride in Nov. 2024. Nothing has changed. So I'm dead in the water ?? Thanks KB

Hello John,

No where on the NT app, can I find a settings menu, as you show. Attached is all i find, and pushing any icon, doesn't bring up the settings menu like you show. Help . Thanks. KB

Now I'm really lost . Are you talking about the phone (I use Android) apt ? I don't see a page like that ((Ver 1.2). I have "welcome", "setup (Acct info)"and "record". Everything was working fine, until I ended my season last year. (Same thing on my indoor trainer, I le...

Hello John, Since the servers have fixed, I've notice an issue with the app. Newton Tracker . It starts, the recording time starts, then after some time, it stops. I get maybe 0.25 mi. down the street, and the recording has ended. I appear to be logged in. Mid ride, I'll restart it, only to check la...

Hey John, Thanks. no hurry, raining up here.

Hello John,

Is there an issue with VeloComp Tracker ? Can't seem to log in or or view tracking data . Current firmware is 10.03.

Thanks, Ken B.

Hello John, It's a new season . A followup from the last post. It appears I was "Hyper-active" when those HR spiked . All rides this year , show normal heart rates. So issue is done. Thanks. Ken

Yep, I got that John . Yep, I'll wait to next year. Thanks.Ken B.

tachycardia ????

Hard reset on PP ??

Yes, I've using the new HR for at least 2 months, with normal readings. This was my last ride of the season . Never had an issue with Garmin. I'm indoors for the winter, and HR strap is performing normal.

Ken B.

Now that I look at previous rides, it's only this file, and was last ride of season . It looked normal in Garminconnect .

This is a new (2mos old) Garmin HR strap/monitor.

Ken B.

Hello John, Just reviewing some data, and I noticed the HR data , along left side of data window , in both Velocomp and Isaac reads 6000 - 11000 bpm . Can't seem to find any setting to change this to read normal BPM .

Thanks, Ken B.

Looks good,. all working. Thank you, John.

Great, thank you John .

Hello John, NT has been working well, until today. It tries to upload ride, but "Ride File Upload Failed". It tries to upload, every time i activate the app. Any ideas ? Thanks.

Thanks John, I did do this when the PP was in stand alone . I could only do the hard reset, once the PP was plugged into the PC. Thanks. Ken
(Been working properly since).

Looks all is well, again. Wish I could understand what causes this, so i can be on alert. KB

Hello John, in regards to the PP not turning on or charging , seemed as though no power, no reset, no lights flashing, nothing. I tried charging with wall charger, nothing . As a last resort, I plugged the PP into my PC and tried a factory reset, the PP came alive ! Started charging, seems to be wor...

It is likely that the cadence battery is getting low. Replace it. A new battery will measure around 3.3V and when the voltage gets below 3.0, the PP sometimes starts losing the signal. The Garmin may still show all is well, but the PP will show dropouts or not even find the sensor at all. Tom Hello...

I would reset your cadence sensor (remove battery, insert backwards for 1 second, then reinstall properly), and also do a hard reset of your PP (press-hold button for about 12 seconds. Release button after light goes out momentarily, then starts blinking). After PP reset you'll need to reset time b...

Hello John,

Noticed on my last 2 rides, the cadence data is missing in several parts of the ride, like i was coasting, but in Garmin Connect, it's all complete. I use the same sensor on all bikes. Battery is fresh.

Thanks, Ken B.

Success, Thank you, John.

Now to check out the new software.

Ken B

Thanks John.
I can follow that, which link are you referencing ? The one in the velo aero instructions .

Hello John, I've searched through all the extracted files in CP210x_Universal_Windows_Driver, and cannot locate the “silabser.inf”. And Velocomp Aero does not recognize the PP, but does so in Isaac . Thanks Ken B. There is this file, but is a text file. “silabser.inf”, but cannot execute (setup info...

Thanks John, Email sent.

Hello John. I emailed tech support last Friday, no response yet. Could you assist , thank you.
