Setting Display Filtering Time - iBike Newton+ Operating Instructions Manual

elevation memorized earlier in the Set Alt step.
SPECIAL FEATURE: Setting Display Filtering Time
Power measurement is extremely sensitive, so much so that your watts can vary
considerably even within a pedal stroke. Thus, wattage measurements can be jumpy.
The Newton+ includes a "filter" that smooths out wattage numbers displayed on your
screen. To access the filter, go to Setup/"Set Filt" (Set Filter). The number in the top of
the screen shows your current filter setting, in seconds. Available choices are 0 (no
filtering), 2 (2 second), 3, 5, 10, and 30 second filtering. For example, when set to "5",
the wattage number currently displayed on your Newton+ screen is averaged over a 5
second period.
If you're a racer who does a lot of sprinting, then a 0 or 2 second filtering will give you very
fast response; however, your wattage display will be a bit jumpy.
For normal training and riding, a 3 or 5 second filtering is a good choice.
For long endurance and TT rides at a constant pace, 10 or 30 second filtering will give you
very smooth readings.
To change the filtering number click the center button, then select your choice with the top
arrow. Click the center button to save.
NOTE: NO MATTER WHICH DISPLAY FILTER SELECTION YOU MAKE, YOUR RIDE FILE DATA
WILL BE RECORDED WITHOUT ANY FILTERING, AND WITH HIGHEST SENSITIVITY.
CONTROLS IN THE ISAAC SOFTWARE WILL ALLOW YOU TO APPLY SMOOTHING FILTERING
TO YOUR RIDE FILE INFORMATION DISPLAYED IN THE ISAAC WINDOWS.
