This warranty does not apply to any defect caused by negligence, misuse, accident, alteration, improper maintenance, or an “act of God. ” The Pilot II cadence meter can only be used on the Rev- Master indoor cycling bike. Any attempts to use this meter on any other equipment voids the warranty.
Console Codes ......28 NOTE: • Press any key to turn on the Pilot II console. • Never disassemble the console or transmitter as it can not be reassembled.
DESCRIPTION The Pilot II assembly consists of a console, a magnet, and a transmitter. A sensor in the transmitter counts the number of times a magnet mounted in the right crank passes the sen- sor. The transmitter will then send a coded ANT+ signal to the console containing the measured values.

INSTALLATION OF PILOT NOTE: The Pilot II can only be installed on a LeMond RevMaster Pro bike. The console uses three(3) AAA batteries and the transmit- ter uses two(2) AA batteries as a source of power. Install the supplied batteries in the console and in the transmitter prior to using.
Page 8
INSTALLATION OF PILOT Transmitter Battery Installation: Remove the battery cover screw and cover from the transmitter with a 2.5-mm hex key. Install two (2) AA batteries in the battery compartment. Retain the battery cover and its screw until you have installed the transmitter on the bike.

INSTALLATION OF PILOT Console Battery Installation: Loosen the battery cover screw and remove the battery cover from the console. Insert 3 AAA batteries into the battery compartment and reinstall the battery cover. Batteries, AAA x3 Battery Cover & Screw Handlebar Mounting Console Clamp Screws...
INSTALLATION OF PILOT Transmitter Installation: Ensure that the batteries are installed in the transmitter. Position the transmitter next to the cover. Note: The RPM sensor at the back of the transmitter will align with the indentation in the back of the drive cover. Transmitter M4 x 40 (2) Batteries...
INSTALLATION OF PILOT Secure the transmitter to the bike with two M4 x 40 screws; tighten with a 3 mm hex key. Reinstall the transmitter battery cover and screw; tighten with a 2.5 mm hex key. Checking the Installation: Turn the console on by pressing START. Rotate the cranks for 10 seconds and verify that the con- sole is detecting up the crank rotation and displaying RPM’s in the cadence section of the display window.
DISPALY WINDOW HEART RATE CADENCE TIME 10:30 INST CADENCE TIME KCAL DISTANCE INST CALORIES (KCAL) DISTANCE CadENCE Cadence is the measurement of how fast the crank is rotat- ing in RPM’s. The approximate speed of the bike can also be displayed (MPH/KPH) in this area.

Pressing the light key will back-light the display window for 5 seconds. If another key is pressed while the light is on, the back light will stay on for an additional 5 seconds. As long as keys are pressed with the back light on, the console light will stay on.
CADENCE TRAINING definition of Cadence How rapidly the cranks are rotated or the rhythm of the ped- al stroke; often referred to as RPM (revolutions per minute). Concepts using Cadence for training You can choose the goal of your workout in relation to Resistance, Cadence, and Heart Rate .

TROUBLESHOOTING No display on Console Press any key to bring the console out of sleep mode. Ensure that the batteries are installed properly in the console and transmitter. If they are, install fresh batter- ies. Verify that the cadence transmitter and console are paired correctly (see Appendix).
Page 23
TROUBLESHOOTING (CONT.) Cadence number jumps high or low Verify that the cadence transmitter and the console are paired to one another (see Appendix). Relocate the bike to a different part of the room, away from any RF interfernce areas. CaUTION External interference may be caused by nearby televisions, stereo equipment, speakers, electrical wire cabling, etc.
APPENDIX Notice of FCC Compliance This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class C Low Power Communication Device Transmitter, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following conditions: (1) This de- vice may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

APPENDIX Pairing the Console and the Cadence Transmitter The Cadence Transmitter and the Console communicate via an ANT+ signal. They will be paired from the factory, but should they lose connection, follow the steps below to reestablish the pairing. Pairing the Cadence Transmitter (see diagram on p. 27 ) With the console ON.
Page 26
APPENDIX Pairing to an aNT+ HR strap (see diagram on p.27) Note: HR signal detection is based on proximity; meaning whichever HR strap is the closest to the console is the signal that the console will display. If the console has trouble detecting your ANT+ HR strap, follow the steps below.
APPENDIX CONsOLE COdEs [CadENCE] + [HR] Pressing both these keys switches from English units - Miles (MI), Miles per Hour (MPH), and pounds (Lb); to metric units - Kilometers (KM), kilometers per hour (KPH), and kilograms (KG) [CadENCE] + [∧] + [∨] Simultaneously pressing these three keys displays the cur- rently paired code.
