Modes

The NODE computer has two modes:
· Ride
· Setting
Ride
This is the mode you will use when riding your bike. Ride mode (Figure 3)
displays the functions, the information gathered by the computer. This information can be the current data (your current speed, the current temperature, or data from other functions), or for some functions the NODE can
display your average, total, or minimum/maximum data. You can learn more
about each of these functions in the section that covers functions.
Setting
This is the mode you will use to prepare your computer for your rst ride, or to set more advanced features. Setting mode (Figure 4) allows you to program the computer, allowing you to choose the units you prefer (e.g. miles or kilometers),
input the correct time or altitude, or set alarms to alert you when you exceed your chosen minimum or maximum heart rate. If the computer is left in Setting mode, it automatically returns to the Ride mode.
Figure 3. Ride Mode.
Changing Modes
To toggle the Ride and Setting modes, hold
for three seconds (Figure 5).
Sleep (Standby)
If the sensors do not send a signal to the NODE for 20 minutes, the computer
goes into Standby to conserve battery power. After an additional 10 minutes, the
NODE switches to Off.
Figure 4. Setting Mode.
(3 sec)
Figure 5. Changing Modes.
Page 7

Sensors

The NODE can compute information from four sensors:
· Cadence
· Speed
· Heart Rate
· Power
Not all NODE computers are packaged with all the sensors. If your bicycle is appropriately equipped, you can purchase a combination speed/cadence sensor. You can also customize your computer by purchasing additional Bontrager NODE sensors or a power sensing system of your choice from your Bontrager dealer.
Functions of Sensors
Sensors sense impulses, either from the passing of magnets that are attached to a spoke or a crankarm, electrical impulses generated by the pumping of your heart, or the impulses from a power meter. When the sensor senses input, it
sends a radio signal to the NODE computer. This signal has a range of about 5 feet (1.5 meters).
Sensors Require Power
Sensors require electrical power. Each sensor gets its own power from an individual battery. If the battery loses power, the sensor will no longer send signals to the computer.
Page 8

Before Your First Ride

Pairing (Pair) Procedure
Before the NODE can display any data, it must identify each radio signal sent by the sensors (Figure 6). This process, which takes about one minute, is called
“Pairing” (Pair). After the NODE creates a Pair, it remembers the signals, so
normally this only occurs once (during the initial set up).
Sensors only send signals when they are activated:
• The wheel must turn to activate the speed sensor
• The crankarm must rotate to activate the cadence sensor or the power sensor
• You must wear the chest strap to activate the heart rate sensor
During the Pairing procedure, the 0 of the speed display ashes. This procedure can take up to 60 seconds. When it is complete, the icons for successfully connected sensors display at the bottom of the screen. If an icon for a sensor disappears, a pair was not created for that sensor.
Force Pair
The NODE only needs to perform the pair procedure once. If the Pair fails, or later you add another sensor, you can also force the Pairing procedure:
In Ride mode, hold
send signals.
and for three seconds while you make the sensors
(3 sec) (3 sec)
Figure 6. Locking onto Radio Signals from Sensors.
Page 9
Connecting (Connect) Procedure
Each time you switch on the NODE, it automatically tries to Connect (lock on) to the signals it remembers from the Pairing procedure. Just like during Pairing, for the NODE to Connect to signals you must activate the sensors (make them send a signal).
During the Connecting procedure, the 0 of the speed display fl ashes. After the Speed sensor connects, the 0 stops  ashing but the icons of the other paired sensors continue to  ash until the Connecting procedure is complete. This can take up to 60 seconds. When it is complete, the icons for successfully connected sensors display at the bottom of the screen (Figure 7).
Force Connect
If the Connecting procedure fails, the –– appears on the screen in each function where the sensor is switched to ON but the Connecting procedure failed. In addition, the icon for that sensor will disappear. These indications happen when the NODE does not receive a signal during the Connecting procedure.
You can force the Connecting procedure:

Understanding Your NODE’s Functions

SPEED

Speed is a measurement of how fast your bike is moving.
Features of Speed Function
In Ride mode, speed always displays (Figure 10). The NODE can also display your current (CUR), average (AVG), and maximum (MAX) speed. The NODE can
do this for two bicycles, bike1 and bike2. Correct display of speed depends on selecting the bicycle before you ride, and on the wheel size setting.
NOTE
Speed Sensor
The sensor for speed is attached to the fork or chainstay of your bicycle. To sense the speed, the speed magnet must be correctly located on a spoke and the wheel must turn.

CADENCE (CAD)

Cadence is how fast you are pedaling, counted as the number of complete
revolutions per minute (RPM) of the crankset.
Features of Cadence Function
When displaying the cadence function, the lower section of the screen displays
CAD (Figure 11). The NODE can display Current (CUR), Average (AVG), and Maximum (MAX) cadence.
NOTE
Cadence Sensor
The sensor for cadence is attached to the left chainstay of your bicycle. The cadence magnet must be correctly located on the crankarm. The sensor must be switched to ON and send a signal.

POWER (PWR)

Power is a measurement of the amount of work you are doing, or the horsepower. The metric equivalent of horsepower is joules.
Features of Power Function
If power data is sent to the NODE, the lower section of the screen displays PWR (Figure 12). The NODE can display Current (CUR), Average (AVG), and Maximum (MAX) power.
NOTE
Power Sensor
The NODE can receive signals from a variety of power meters (sensors) that
work with the ANT+ protocol. However, Bontrager does not make a power
meter. The sensor must be switched to ON and send a signal (spin the crank).

HEART RATE (HR)

Heart rate is a measurement of the number of times your heart beats in a minute.
Features of Heart Rate Function
If heart rate data is sent to the NODE, the lower section of the screen displays
HR (Figure 13). The NODE can display Current (CUR), Average (AVG), and Maximum (MAX) heart rate.
You can also set ves zones. Each zone is a target heart rate within an upper and lower limit. The NODE computes the amount of time you have spent in each zone.
NOTE
Heart Rate Sensor
The sensor for heart rate is the NODE chest strap. The chest strap must be correctly located on your chest (Figure 14), against your skin, and will work better if the contact area is slightly moist. The chest strap needs to be snug to stay in place. Slide the buckles to adjust the length of the strap. The sensor must be switched to ON and send a signal.

INTERVALS (INT)

Intervals are periods of time of a set length, separated by set periods of time.
Interval Clock
The interval clock runs separately from the Time function, so you can still use the stopwatch function and scroll through standard functions without stopping the interval clock.
In the INT screen, there are two clocks above a box (Figure 16). When the clock on
the left is running, it counts down the time that remains in the interval. When the clock on the right is running, it counts down the time that remains in the rest. The
box gives the number of intervals that remain of the total repetitions, and a bar moves across the box to show the relative progress of the interval and rest clocks.

TIME

The NODE works with time in two ways:
· Time of Day (clock)
HH:MM hours and minutes
· Ride time (stopwatch)
HH:MM:SS, hours, minutes, and seconds
In Ride mode, the time function always displays (Figure 20).

NUTRITION TIMER

The nutrition alarm displays an alarm bell (Figure 21) to remind you to eat at intervals you select. The intervals are based on the ride time clock, not the time
of day, so the nutrition timer shows time as hours and minutes (HH:MM).

Installation

This section explains how to attach the computer to the handlebar and attach
the sensors and magnets to their locations. There are no wires.
Tools Required
• Screwdriver, small slot type
• Screwdriver, small phillips type
• 2.5mm allen key (if installing a SpeedTrap or DuoTrap sensor)
To Attach the Computer to the Handlebar
Determine the diameter of your handlebar (25.4 mm, 26.0 mm, or 31.8 mm).
1.
Insert the correct clasp into the computer base (Figure 22).
2.
Slide the head of the clasp to the end of the slot in the base.
3.
Insert the rubber pad with logo into the back of the base (Figure 23).
4.
Wrap the clasp around the handlebar.
5.
From the front side of the computer, insert the screw and tighten (Figure 24).
6.
Slide the computer head into the base (Figure 25).
7.

To Attach the Computer to the Stem
Insert the rubber pad with logo into the back of the computer base.
1.
Position the base on the stem.
2.
Secure the base to stem using zip-ties.
3.
Slide the computer head into the base (Figure 25).
4.
To Install the Speed Magnet
With the logo facing away from the wheel (Figure 26), wrap the magnet
1. around a spoke.
Close the magnet so that the spoke is in the tunnel through the magnet
2. (Figure 27). Squeeze the magnet until the clasp is engaged.
Figure 26. Magnet on Spoke.
Figure 27. Spoke Slot and Clasp.
Slide the magnet up or down the spoke to align it with the sensor (Figure 28).
3.
Tighten the clamp screw on the back of the magnet (Figure 29) to secure
4. the position of the magnet.
Figure 28. Alignment of Magnet.

To Install the Cadence Magnet
Remove the left pedal.
1.
Slide the cadence magnet (Figure 30) onto the crankarm with the magnet
2. to the inside.
Reinstall the pedal.
3.
Align the magnet with the cadence sensor.
4.
To Install the Sensor(s)
Certain Trek and Gary Fisher road bikes feature a specially designed pocket
that allows you to integrate a SpeedTrap sensor directly into the fork leg or a
DuoTrap (Figure 32) sensor directly into the chainstay. If installing a SpeedTrap
or DuoTrap sensor (both sold separately), please refer to the installation instructions included with the sensor.
For non-SpeedTrap or DuoTrap compatible bikes:
Position the sensor on the fork leg (Figure 31) or chainstay to achieve
1. the correct alignment with the magnet (Figure 28). If needed, move the magnet.
When you have achieved the correct alignment, pass a zip-tie through the
2.
sensor and around the fork blade or chainstay (Figure 33).
Install a second zip-tie.
3.
Re-check the alignment of the sensor, and tighten both zip-ties.
4.
Using a pair of scissors, cut off the excess length of zip-tie.

Battery Maintenance Reset

There is a battery in the computer, and also in each of the sensors. If you use the NODE for one hour every day, the batteries should last about 10 months.
Sensor Batteries
Replace the batteries in the sensors every 10 months, or whenever the computer cannot perform the Pair or Connect procedure with a given sensor (Figure 34).
Computer Battery
Replace the battery in the computer when the battery indicator gets to 10%
(when the indicator shows no bars). Before removing the computer battery, note the Trip and Total values. When the battery is removed, the computer
automatically does a Reset (erase settings) and changes function totals to zero (0). After installing a new battery (Figure 35), you can manually set your totals.
Battery Type
The same battery type is used for the computer and each sensor, a 3-volt CR2032 lithium cell. When you go to the store, take the old battery with you.
You can erase all settings and programming. Push the Reset button (Figure 36).
The NODE goes to the procedure for Automatic Setup.
