- Total ride distance (Can be set to miles or kilometers)
- Total ride average power
- Max power, RPM, and heart rate can also be displayed by pressing the AVG/MAX button twice
• In RIDE mode, without the optional power sensor installed, the console will display the following metrics:
- RPM
- Heart rate (If the console is paired with a compatible heart rate monitor)
- Total ride time
- Max RPM and heart rate can also be displayed by pressing the AVG/MAX button twice
• The console will remain in RIDE mode as long as you continue pedaling.
• If you stop pedaling, the RIDE mode will continue for 10 seconds, at which point it will go into PAUSE MODE.
• You will know the console is in PAUSE mode when the numbers start ashing on the screen.
Using the Stage Timer
• While in RIDE mode, you may use the Stage timer at any point to do timed stages (a.k.a. intervals).
• To activate the Stage timer, press and release the button.
• When the Stage timer is activated it will do the following:
- Measure the stage time
- Measure the stage distance (with optional power sensor installed)
- Measure the stage average power (with the optional power sensor installed)
• To stop timing a stage, press and release the button.
• At this point the stage timer will stop timing and the stage metrics will be displayed until a new stage is started.
• To clear the metrics for the previous stage and begin a new stage, press and release the button again to
begin a new stage.
Using the Light Button
• During a ride, the rider can activate the light by pressing and releasing the button.
• The light will stay on for 10 seconds, which is the default setting.
• There are multiple optional settings for the backlight that can be set in the Service menu (see the section on
Service menu operation for details):
- Stay on for 10 seconds
- Stay on for 15 seconds
- Stay on for 20 seconds
- Stay on for the entire ride
- Stay on indenitely by pressing and holding the button for 3-5 seconds. The light will remain on until
the rider presses and holds the button again for 3-5 seconds.
- Light can be turned o so that riders cannot turn on the light. This is a good feature for studios that have
good illumination or that do not want riders using the backlight.
Going into PAUSE Mode
• If during the ride, you stop pedaling, and/or get o the bike, the following will happen:
• The console will enter PAUSE mode after 10 seconds.
• The numbers on the screen will ash.
• The timers will continue timing—including the Total and Stage timers—for 5 minutes. Schwinn added this
functionality to allow instructors to get o the bike and coach o the bike while trusting their timers will remain
in sync with all the riders in the room. It also allows a rider to stop for a brief point of time and begin riding
again without losing sync with the class. GOOD NEWS: While your timers continue timing, your average power
calculation will pause while you are not pedaling so that you will not get penalized for brief moments of not
pedaling.
• To exit PAUSE mode and return to RIDE mode, just begin pedaling before 5 minutes have elapsed.
