4. Install Cadence Wire (Optional)
Cadence can be measured via two methods, wired
(pedal) and wireless (hub). To measure cadenced via the
wired method install the pedal cadence wire and the
cadence magnet to the crank arm. Ensure the center of
the magnet passes the wired end of the sensor unit. Do
not center the magnet in relation to the sensor (FIGURE
4). No installation is required for the wireless cadence
method. See COMPUTER SETUP 4 to correctly configure
the computer for the chosen method of cadence deter-
mination.
5. Place Computer into Receiver Shoe
Place the computer into the mounting shoe on the handlebar or stem.
Line up the slots on the base of the computer with the bracket and slide
computer toward the rider (FIGURE 5). NOTE: Ensure the computer is
fully inserted onto the receiver shoe for proper data transmission.
6. Heart Rate Monitor Strap
Position the heart rate monitor strap on your torso as pictured in
FIGURE 6. The strap should rest just beneath the pectoralis muscles
of the chest. For best results slightly moisten the electrodes where
contact is made with skin. The heart rate strap must be worn to
enable the heart rate function. NOTE: The chest strap for the
PowerTap SL uses a non-coded frequency and is not compatible
with other manufacturer’s chest straps.
