TROUBLE SHOOTING
Tips About Downloading (original standard model only)
Be sure to "CLEAR ALL" (C-ALL on the display) in the ride mode and the interval memory mode after you download your data or future rides may be lost.
To extend battery life after download:
1. Remove the CPU from the Link download cradle immediately after the download is completed. Leaving the CPU on the download cradle will contribute to excessive battery drain.
Important: Just removing the CPU from the download cradle and allowing it to go into the blank LCD sleep mode does not return it to its normal power-conserving mode - and you must complete
the next two steps.
2. Place the CPU into the bike receiver shoe and wake it up by pressing either button.
3. Turn the rear wheel enough to allow the CPU to receive a valid signal. The rear wheel is only required to turn a few times, and it is not necessary to ride the bike.
Important: The CPU must receive a valid signal from the hub as indicated in the upper left-hand corner of the LCD display.
· Once you have completed all three steps noted above, the CPU will be in its normal power-conserving mode and can be removed from the bike receiver shoe.

Download Techniques
When the Powertap CPU is placed in the download cradle, an “end of file marker” is created. This is necessary for the download process and also does not allow any further data to be recorded. To
use the Powertap to record new data the “CLEAR ALL” command must be given. This is done by holding down both buttons on the Powertap CPU until the display reads “C-ALL”. No new data will
be recorded until this is done.
Close all other programs and applications to make sure they don't interfere with the download.
When you slide the Power-Tap computer onto the download cradle the Powertap computer display should "blank out"
