FINDING SENSORS
The PowerTap hub, sensors and computer are "paired" or "learned" at the factory so that the
system is ready to ride once installed on the bicycle. Learning involves viewing and storing
each device ID into the PowerTap computer. Information on learning can be found in com-
puter setup 5 section of this owner's manual.
In addition, there is a feature called "Find" that allows the user to search for stored devices in
the event a sensor has lost contact with the PowerTap computer for any reason. To initiate
the Find, hold [Mode] and [Select]. Release when "Find" appears on the bottom of the
PowerTap screen after about 2 seconds. The current watts display will switch to a spinning
dial, indicating the search is in process. When the search is successful, the transmission icon
appears in the upper left corner. If device ID's are stored for heart rate and cadence there will
be spinning dials for these metrics as well.
POWER CONSERVATION
The computer and hub have power saving features to prolong battery life. The computer
powers down the display after four (4) minutes of inactivity. Press either [MODE] or [SELECT]
to activate the display. Similarly, the hub powers down after five (5) minutes of inactivity. The
transmission icon will not be visible when the hub is asleep. To wake the hub spin the wheel
and verify the transmission icon is illuminated.
