HOW TO USE
Your Polar Power Output Sensor
1.
To be able to use the Polar Power output sensor you need to have
the following settings on your Polar S710 wrist receiver:
Options
Bike Set
Bike 1/2 On
Power On
• Chain weight in grams
• Chain length in millimetres
• Span length from the centre of the rear hub to the centre of the bottom
bracket in millimetres.
If you know the factory default weight and length of the chain, set those values
in the receiver.
If you do not know the values, release the chain and weigh it. For the length,
count the number of loops and multiply the amount by 12,7 mm.
Number of loops _____ x 12,7 mm = Chain length ______ mm
Examples of the chain weights
and lengths:
Shimano Dura-ace CN-7700
Super narrow HG
weight: 304 g
length: 1473 mm
Campagnolo Record 2000
10 Speed Chain

To ensure the successful connection between the power output sensor and
the wrist receiver make sure that the metallic pins on the bike mount make
contact with the bottom of the receiver.

Verification of the sensor installations:
•
Test the power sensor installation by checking that the green indicator light
flashes in the power sensor when the crank magnet passes the sensor.
•
Test the speed sensor installation by checking that the red indicator light
flashes in the power sensor when the spoke magnet passes the speed sensor.
•
Test the chain speed sensor installation by checking that the yellow
indicator light flashes in the power sensor when the chain is rotated.
This is only a testing procedure. The flashing will not continue after 50
flashes when cycling. If you want to check this procedure again, you must
pause for one minute during which time the magnets must not pass
the sensors and the chain must not move.
4.
If you want the exercise file to include heart rate data from the
beginning, you should wait for the heart rate code to be recognised by
wrist watch receiver before you start cycling. The heart rate code search
takes max. 15 seconds.
