Setting Up Speed Sensors
Joule 3.0 is compatible with ANT+ speed sensors, each having a unique code. Joule 3.0 needs to
be paired to each sensor to ensure proper functionality. Once set up, sensors can be managed
using PowerAgent software.
1. Press and release [MODE] until Menu mode is displayed.
2. Press [JOYSTICK] in and release to select Sensors.
3. Press [JOYSTICK] up/down to highlight Speed Sensor. Press [JOYSTICK] in and release to select Speed Sen-
sor.
4. Press [JOYSTICK] up/down to highlight Add New Sensor. Press [JOYSTICK] in and release to select Add New
Sensor.
5. Make sure the Speed Sensor is awake and isolated from other active sensors by 65 feet/20 meters. Note: For
most Speed Sensors, rotating the wheel will wake up the sensor.
6. Press the [JOYSTICK] in and release to Start Pairing. Pairing may take up to 60 seconds. Once pairing is suc-
cessful, the sensor ID will be displayed.
7. Press [JOYSTICK] up/down to highlight Name. Press [JOYSTICK] in and release to select Name and change
the name of the paired speed sensor. Press [JOYSTICK] in and release to save changes.
8. Press [JOYSTICK] up/down to highlight the Wheel Circumference and press [JOYSTICK] in and release to
select wheel circumference. For a list of common wheel circumferences see FAQ section.
9. Press [JOYSTICK] up/down to highlight Activate Sensor. Press [JOYSTICK] in and release to Activate Sensor.
Note: active sensor is designated by a hash mark next to the sensor name in the sensor list. When switching
speed sensors, be sure to activate the appropriate sensor.
10. Once a sensor has been paired and activated Joule 3.0 will automatically find the active sensor whenever it
is turned on. Other speed sensors with different IDs will be ignored. Once the sensor is paired, it can be oper-
ated within the same area as other sensors without risk of picking up that signal. Note: after a battery change,
most cadence sensors will change ID’s and requiring Joule be re-paired to the sensor.
