Once you've created one or more profiles the user can
select any valid profile. The selected profile is indicated as
"active".
By activating a profile, all parameters set at its inception
are enabled.
A profile can be edited or deleted via the configuration app.
Profile 1 can NEVER be deleted, though it can be renamed
and/or edited by the user.
USING PROFILES
It is possible to activate one profile (only if valid) via the
RIZER keyboard or via the configuration app.
To switch the active profile, press the
simultaneously. RIZER will switch to the following available
profile, displaying the activated profile number, via a
correspondent number of blinks.
We suggest only activating the user profiles you need for
your workouts to facilitate switching profiles via the RIZER
keyboard.
You can also switch the active profile via the RIZER app.
Access the profiles screen and select the profile to activate.
07_ADVANCED SETTINGS
Most of the settings that follow need the RIZER app to be
configured.
ZERO SETTING AND HOME TRAINER ALIGNMENT
After turning the RIZER on it moves the cursor downwards
searching for the zero setting point. Once it's found, the
cursor gets back to zero gradient height.
If the RIZER recognizes the home trainer it adapts the zero
gradient position as a function of the home trainer it's
connected to.
Should the RIZER not recognize the home trainer or for any
reason should it not be perfectly level, it is still possible to
edit the zero setting via the RIZER app.
Via the app you can raise or lower the zero setting of .5
mm at a time until the RIZER places the fork at the desired
height.
RIZER automatically memorizes said position for the
following workouts.
RESET
Via the use of the configuration app you can partially or
totally reset the RIZER parameters and bring it back to its
factory settings.
You can partially reset the parameters related to:
Profile reset
Paired home trainer reset
Difficulty parameter reset
Total reset to default values
DIFFICULTY
Some simulation software let you lower/raise the training
parameters, so they're consistent with your physical
32
abilities.
These parameters are sometimes called Difficulty.
This reduction/increase means a correspondent reduction/
increase of the tilt command that the software sends to
the home trainer. For instance, if the difficulty settings is
at 50% and the software plans for an 8% uphill climb, the
command sent to the home trainer equals 4%. In normal
conditions, as the RIZER receives its commands from
the home trainer and not the software, it will receive a
command to simulate 4% as the home trainer got to a 4%
simulation command.
This parameter lets you correct this incorrect behavior so
keys
the RIZER can simulate the same gradient displayed on the
software, though preserving the workout difficulty level.
In the previous example, after setting the Difficulty
parameter with the same value set in the program (that is,
50%), RIZER raises the bicycle by properly tilting it at 8%
even though the simulation software sent the home trainer
a 4% command.
This parameter can only be modified via the RIZER app.
NEGATIVE TILT
The negative tilt value in some workout simulation
software is reduced (halved with Zwift) so the pedalling
experience isn't as real as it can be. For instance, if the
gradient simulation is -4%, the home trainer is sent a -2%
command and as a consequence the RIZER only tilts about
-2%.
This parameter lets you take back the negative tilt value to
the value indicated in the simulation control screen.
In the previous example, if you activate the double gradient
option in the RIZER, even if the RIZER is sent a -2%
command, the RIZER itself will correctly simulate the -4%.
This parameter can only be modified via the RIZER app.
SAFETY MODE
The RIZER moves your bicycle during workout and can get
to steep gradients (+20%).
This is all part of the simulation but it can also be potentially
harmful. To reduce risks, after 5 seconds of zero speed on
the RIZER, the RIZER itself will lower the gradient to zero.
This is a default safety configuration but it can be removed
via the RIZER command app.
Important: disabling this feature makes the user
responsible for a reduction in safety.
08_NOTES
- Not all home trainers can send a gradient command
received by the simulation software to the RIZER. RIZER
also works with these home trainers as it calculates the
equivalent gradient as a function of power, speed and
cyclist weight data. Unfortunately this system is not as
accurate as power and speed do not always change with
