First off, I love my Powerlink Zeros. I’ve been using them almost a year now and am very satisfied.

However I have one issue/question that has bugged me for a while. Previously, I was getting my power data during a TR workout from a quarq. I could backpedal during a workout and the power would drop to zero while the timer would still progress. With my Powerlink Zeros, if I chose to backpedal, the workout stops and I have to restart wherever I left off. Both PMs were used in tandem with a kickr.

This must be a setting that I’ve missed. Can anyone help me out with what I’m missing?

Have you checked the Pedal / Pause setting?

> [@How often do you stop riding during indoor workout?](https://www.trainerroad.com/forum/t/how-often-do-you-stop-riding-during-indoor-workout/78845/16):

> That is setting and device related. If you turn this setting off, it will continue to run the workout even if you coast or backpedal. That is what the workout text is relating to. So it’s worth a test in the other setting if you are aiming to try something different. But keep in mind the new need to manually hit the Pause if/when desired with this set to Off.

In the app, Settings, General subsection (at least on Win app).
