There are some delays in refreshing the display during the start and
the stop.
This is an expected behaviour and depends on the cadence and
the stability of the signal and has no remarkable effect on the overall
recordings.
For example, if we intend to manage a pedal cycle at 30 rpm, that
means that the cycle would last 2 seconds and some time is needed
to manage and send the information.
Also initial and final signal is sometimes filtered for a better
recording stability.
How often do I need to calibrate my ROTOR POWER?
To ensure an accurate measurement, a calibration or zeroing is
advised only after installing ROTOR POWER on a bike. Anyway a
factory calibration is performed on every crank.
It is recommended to calibrate your power meter after installing
or replace your batteries (30 hours riding approx.).
I tried to calibrate my ROTOR power but it only comes back
with the calibration value for just one leg.
Follow carefully calibration/zeroing procedure described at the
user manual.
Sometimes, the issue persists even following the procedure, in
these cases, after the display returns the first calibration message,

spin the crankset backwards a few turns, leave the arms vertical
and push calibration button again. The display should show a
value corresponding to the other arm.
If the issue persist ensure that both arms have batteries installed
and they are charged enough to perform calibration process.
How can I see the new Torque Effectiveness and Pedal
Smoothness metrics?
ANT+™ protocol for the new metrics is right now in its beta
phase and the displays manufacturers are responsible to develop
new software releases that work with TE and PS. ROTOR POWER
is already managing these messages and you can download the
ROTOR software for indoor training from: http://power.rotorbike.

In some software upgrades for some monitors the compatibility
with Torque Effectiveness and Pedal Smoothness is granted, as in
the Garmin monitor models 510 and 810 with the 08/13 upgrade.
