Hector Posted September 20, 2009 Share Anyone with practical help to set up my CS600. I have done all the settings - 2 or 3 times - but the chain sensor red light does not come on. When I start pedaling to check the cadence sensor, a red light flashes once, then the green light flashes every time the pedal passes the sensor, but the chain sensor red light does not flash. I have replaced the chain sensor, still no luck. The weird thing is that the power meter worked for a few days after I rode to test it. It did not work on the first ride but on my second ride after 60km of riding it suddenly came on. It worked on my next ride and not again. Polar then sent me a replacement chain sensor - still does not work. A few questionsWill the cadence show on the power meter even if the watts are not recording? The green light flashes but does not record.If the snsor is not postioned properly (I am sure I got all the settings correct - why would the meter have worked at some stage), will the the chain sensor not work.Is it possible that the main unit is faulty?Help from cyclists who have battled with this before would be greatly appreciated082 322 8776 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bike Mob Posted September 21, 2009 Share How far away is your chain running from the Sensor in the Big Blade and 23? There should only be a 25mm gap at the highest point... if the lights are flashing the the unit is pickup up cadence and power... check all the batteries, you may have a weak signal, or a loose connection in the battery housing.

Hector Posted September 21, 2009 Share The power censor (chain sensor) does not flash ie the red light. It only flashes once when you start the test. I can therefore see that there is a red light but when testing only the green light flashes every time the pedal arm passes the censor. I am told by Polar that during the test run, the green and red light should flash.Is it possible the main unit is faulty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bike Mob Posted September 21, 2009 Share I cant say if it's faulty... make sure the chain is running close enough then try it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bike Mob Posted September 21, 2009 Share Make sure your connections are 100%...and try teaching the sensor againTarmac-GSTR2009-09-21 05:51:12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
