The right side should be used on large frames or
when a suspension fork is installed. The optimal dis­tance between the computer and the transmitter is 24
inches (610mm) The distance may need to be less that
24 inches (610mm) if ambient temperatures are
below 40 °F (4 °C). To reduce signal loss in colder
t e m p e r a t u res, the transmitter should be mounted as
close to the computer as possible. (maximum mount­ing distance is 28 inches). Use the transmitter mount­ing bracket and tie-wraps provided to position the sen­s o r. Do not tighten the tie-wraps until final placement

Roll Out Method

The roll out method will provide the most
accurate computer calibration and can take
into account variables such as inflation pre s­s u re, rim width and rider weight.

1. Extend a tape measure out to 3000mm
(120 inches) and lock it in place.

2. With your tire inflated to its proper pre s­s u re, place the valve at the 6:00 position (at
the bottom) directly over the start of the mea­suring tape.

3. Roll the wheel one complete revolution until
the valve stem is again at the 6:00 position.
Read the tape directly under the valve and
note the distance in millimeters. (To convert
inches to millimeters, multiply inches by 25.4).
Use this number to replace the default
(default values are 2054 for wheel one, and
2113 for wheel two) when pro g r a m m i n g

12:15 etc.)

5. Ti m e r
S e l e c t i o n

The timer can be
selected for either
Automatic Ti m e r
Mode (ATM) or
Timer Mode (TM). The ATM selection

6 7

allows you to keep track of your actual rid-

ing time. The timer
only operates w h e n
the wheel is ro t a t i n g
and cannot be
t u rned on or off man-

u a l l y.
The TM selection is just like a conventional
stopwatch. The timer is activated manually
and re c o rds the time whether the wheel is
rotating or not. Tapping the “FUNCTION”
button starts and stops the stopwatch and
holding the “FUNCTION” button for thre e
seconds will reset to stopwatch.
N o t e : The average speed (AVS) will be
calculated diff e rently based upon the selec­tion of ATM or TM. If ATM is selected,
the AVS is based upon only riding time.
If TM is selected the AVS is based on the
total time the stopwatch is turned on or
activated.
To select between ATM and TM press and
hold the “FUNCTION” and tap the
“MODE” button. Either ATM or TM will
flash. Press the “MODE” button to select
