The MPower™ Performance Console: How To…
Check Battery Levels
1. Turn on console, enter service mode and scroll to the “BATTERIES“ option
2. Push Light button, display will read “CONSOLE”, and below that will be a number – that number
is % of battery life remaining in the console batteries
3. Push Avg/End button to view “RPM” and “WATT” battery life %
4. Any battery below 20% should be replaced.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: When a battery needs to be replaced, replace the same battery on all bikes
NOTE: The percentage reading of battery life does not always re-set when a battery is replaced. If the
battery has full power, the system will work even if the battery indicator shows low.
Change display from Km (metric) to Miles (MPH)

Use Telemetry Heart Rate
The console is equipped with a wireless HR receiver. It will pick up all standard HR 5 kHz straps
(i.e. “Polar”), as well as Ant+ Sport wireless straps. It is not compatible with certain proprietary
coded devices such as Polar WIND and Suunto ANT. The best rule of thumb is that if a piece of
cardio on the workout floor will pick it up, then so will the MPower™ Console.
Pick Up Heart Rate Transmission
1. The MPower™ Console will search for a HR strap signal when it is first turned on. In order to
conserve battery life, it will STOP searching after 30 seconds if it does not find a signal.
2. Best protocol to get HR signal properly:
- Ensure HR strap is on and functioning prior to turning on console.
- After turning on console, immediately stand on the pedals and lean towards the console
to get strap as close as possible.
- Watch the HR window on the display, once a number appears in this window, strap has
been detected and unit will display HR for the remainder of the ride.
Change Backlight Settings
Turn on console, enter service mode and scroll to the “SYSTEM“ menu option
Push Light button, below SYSTEM will flash “SUMMARY”
Push “Avg/End” button until flashing text is “BACK LIGHT” with current setting below
Push Light button, display will read “BACK LIGHT” with the current setting flashing below it
Push “Avg/End” to scroll between options:
a. “On” – backlight will be 100% of time console is on
b. “Off” – backlight will not be used
c. “Timer nn” - backlight will be activated by backlight button and stay on for “nn”
seconds (1-20)
6. Tap backlight button to select desired option
a. NOTE: if you select “Timer nn”, “Timer” will stop flashing, and the number will still be
flashing, use “Stage” and “Avg/End” buttons to adjust time up/down, push Light Button
when desired time is displayed
