DEVICE AVERAGING

The Device Display Averaging page allows you to adjust the way Power and Cadence data is presented during a ride.
Select a specific amount of time to average the raw second-by-second data values for power and/or cadence, prior to
display. The result is a smoother, steadier value displayed to the rider, over the duration of the ride. The raw data is still
written to the ride file.
Another setting associated with Device Averaging is calculating and displaying averages with or without values of zero.
For example, to view your average cadence while not including time spent coasting. Set “Cadence w/ Zeros” to “No.”
This will result in not including values of zero when calculating average cadence prior to anytime it is displayed on the
device. Again, the raw data written to the ride file will include zeros.

AVERAGES MENU MENU INPUT OPTION

Selecting 1,3,5,10 or 30 seconds sets the amount of time the raw second-by-second value will
be averaged prior to displaying. The greater the time selection, the steadier the value displayed,
the slower the response to a change in power or cadence. The default is 1 second, meaning
display the data without averaging.

Selecting Yes or No sets the Joule to calculate averages related to power or cadence with or
without zeros. The default is Yes, calculate averages with zeros.
