Data File Management
Joule 2.0 saves three types of fi les into memory, activities, workouts and history. Activities fi les
contain second by second ride data for analysis by PC or Mac on software such as CycleOps
PowerAgent. History fi les contain summary data only and are used by Joule 2.0 for calculating
averages, maximums and totals for Reports. Workout fi les are created in PowerAgent and sent to
Joule 2.0.
Whenever ride time is accumulated an activities fi le is created and saved automatically. A history
fi le is generated anytime a ride is stopped and saved. Note: because history fi les are used by
Reports for calculating averages, maximums and totals it is important to manage them carefully,
only saving rides that you want to contribute to these calculations. Because Joule 2.0 acts as a
mass storage device, activities and history fi les may also be viewed from a PC or Mac when con-
nected via USB cable.
