5. PowerBox Power Meter Operation
Your PowerBox power meter has an LED light to indicate its function. This enables you to easily test functionality
and operate the system in a quick and uncomplicated way.
1. Remove the isolation strap by pulling it out of the battery compartment. Check if the battery cap is in the
correct position.
2. Now, the LED indicator light flashes green for approximately one minute.
3. Connect the power meter to your head unit (observe manufacturer's instructions). As long as the green LED
indicator light blinks, the PowerBox power meter is emitting signals that can be received by an ANT+ or
Bluetooth enabled head unit. Pair your power meter-compatible computer with your PowerBox power meter.
Observe the respective manufacturer's manual. Pairing your computer unit is only necessary when operating
the power meter for the first time. Numerous PowerBox power meters on different bicycles should be put into
operation one after another to avoid unwanted connections between different PowerBox power meters and
computer head units. You can repeat the pairing of your ANT+ enabled computer unit at any time. To do so,
you just have to activate your PowerBox power meter by turning the crankarm. Your PowerBox power meter
then signalizes its availability for pairing by blinking its green LED indicator light for one minute.
You need an ANT+-compatible computer unit that supports the power-only profile (PWR). For example, suitable
computer units are:
CYCLEOPS: Joule 2.0 and 3.0
GARMIN: Edge 500/510/520/800/810/820/1000, Forerunner 310XT/910XT
O-SYNCE: navi2coach, Macro X and Macro High X
You can find a current list of compatible products at the ANT+ Alliance:
