This video shows how to set up PowerPod on a second bike, and also how Automatic Profile Selection works.
I apologize in advance for the variable quality of the sound.

Very good!
Could you briefly explain the settings of the four pre-defined profiles. I assume there have different wind scaling factors, etc.
I - and I think most of the users - used the "Setup Newton" option to configure profiles with mounting position, ride weight, etc. to set up different profiles. Maybe it would be good to mention in a vide as well.
PS: For the mounting position there is still the bug with the Wind scaling valiue of 1.00 which is set fo every psition.

"Select Profile 3 (or profile 2 if you're using a Garmin/PowerPod combo mount). Then, disconnect PP from Isaac."
This is the kind of stuff that drives me nuts. I've got an existing profile. I go to "Device -> Set Active Profile in Newton". My original profile shows up as Profile "1: Foobar Ride Profile". Profiles 2, 3, and 4 are all blank.
Now my assumption would be, go ahead and choose Profile 2, 'cause that's the first blank one.
But your instructions are to skip #2, and choose #3. Unless you're using the Garmin PowerPod combo mount. Which I am. So choose 2? Why would you choose 3 if not? Just a little to much undocumented black magic...
