Here’s an in-depth explanation of Powermatch, Erg mode works on the same principal just minus the additional power meter.

How does powermatch work?

Here goes from a former control systems engineer (I used to design much more complex control systems that had to work in much more critical environments): Here’s the simplest control system: You feed a desired input (the requested power), you measure the “actual” power [from the power meter], you multiple that by some gain, and that signal gets fed to the trainer. The trainer than increases / decreases resistance to try and get the delta between the input and the measured “actual” power to be …
