Thanks… That was the question. Is that a setting on the app?
Asking because trying to figure out if I’m having drops because my iPad is on the drive side, and thinking i may need to move it to the other side of the desk…
Thanks!
This also answer my question… Probably want to move the iPad to the other side…
That setting has to match the app/ head unit.

False. The power information is always transmitted by the left pedal to the head unit, in ANT+ or BT protocols. The right pedal only transmits to the left pedal, never the head unit.
That setting is for whether the left pedal sends a single power number (combined power of left and right pedal) or two separate numbers (left power and right power). This is done for some old head unit and software that assumes only a single power number is measured.
This is why Assioma only sells a left only power pedal or both power pedals, never a right only power pedal. The right pedal can’t talk to head units. It doesn’t have the hardware.

Well, i was trying to follow the TR support…
In any case, this morning I was using my pixel 5 and had no drops…
Maybe is something to do with the iPad?
I have had no drops ever using BT, only occasionally with ANT. I exclusively run TR and Zwift together and separately on a 2015 iMac

The funny thing is, that i see the same drops on my garmin…
I connect the pedals and hrm to my 935 using ant and pedals, hrm and trainer to ipad (2019 version) or pixel 5 using bt.
When looking at the data for the ride on garmin connect i see drops about the same places on the tr ride and the garmin.
Same experience here in the 2 weeks since I got my Assiomas. Running Zwift via ANT+, TR via BT, on the same PC, antennas side-by-side a meter or so ahead of the front wheel; the latter is rock-solid, the former has dropouts every couple of minutes.
I have a history of using Assiomas with iPad mini 2, Garmin edge 520, and more recently with Win 10 via BLE, although my experience with TR using it is minimal.
Currently, I experience no problems, and the only times I got a few drops I had a JBL unit connected via BLE and on top of my laptop causing interference. I noticed it and moved it a few feet apart and no problem anymore.
It is curious that you see drops using both BLE and ANT+. When I experienced drops, I remember once that I had a doubled reading into my Garmin via ANT+ and that reading kept working fine, the only affected by the drop was BLE.
Cheers!
Any nearby WiFi, BT or wireless devices (headphones, cordless phones, etc) or microwave could be interfering. They all use 2.4 GHz spectrum. So you might want to get those things as far away as possible.

Define nearby…
My wireless router is about not close to the pedals…I am thinking 12-13 feet away…
Thats the only wireless thing i have in the room.
Today using the pixel 5 i had no drops…
I didnt thought about that… maybe i can use the DC rainmaiker tool for this…
I havent try the headunit since i got a cycling desk. The phone/ipad are up high, basically on my face now…unlike before where they were significantly lower.
I have a late 2019 iPad (10.2", WiFi).
let me do the dc rainmaker thing

let me know if you can see this…
I will send this to TR…
I guess I was wrong…I see no drops on the garmin
My router/modem is less than 6ft away from my setup and no problems.
It’s probably your espresso maker, you should send it to me so I can test the theory

Anyone heard any rumors or news about the upcoming SPDSL compatible spindles? Last I had seen was “a few weeks” at the beginning of March but since then it’s been all quiet…
Greasing protocols. What does everyone do?
I am swapping my pedals between bikes once a week. Re-grease each time or leave it a few weeks/ months between application? Just want to make sure the pedals are in tip-top condition all the time

I’m doing the same thing between my road and gravel bike and I clean and re-grease almost every time. Pedals are performing without any issues so far.

Do you mean just the threads or the bearings and spindle?
I just re-grease the threads when they look dirty/dry - i’ve serviced/swapped the bearings maybe 3 or 4 times in 2 years.

I meant just the threads that go into the crank arms @kevistraining - been cleaning and greasing each time like @Petaaar so far and just wondered what general consensus was
That grease is not going anywhere. Once for each first install on a bike, then once every few swaps is largely sufficient.

I wouldn’t be so sure about that due to the fact that in Dual channel mode using BTE each pedal sends is own signal and pairing has to occur with each pedal seperately.
