Schwinn®MPower™Echelon2 Zeropoint Calibration
When the optional power upgrade kit is installed with the console for the first time, the
magnet gap spacing must be verified and the power sensor zeropoint must be set.
Magnet Gap Spacing:
To ensure consistent power readings
across all bikes, the optimal distance
between the magnets is 10.5mm –11mm,
which should be verified upon installation of
the power sensor.
This gap can be measured using the red
zeropoint calibration tool. Ensure the tool
fits snugly between the brake magnets. If
the gap exceeds 11mm, power readings
may be inaccurate.
Adjust the magnet gap with soft-jawed
channel locks until appropriate gap is met
as necessary.

Zeropoint Calibration Procedure
1. Turn on console.
2. Enter the service menu by holding
down the STAGE and AVG MAX
buttons together for about 4-6 seconds.
3. Once in the service menu, use the
AVG MAX button to scroll to the
CALBRATE menu. Press and release
the LIGHT button to enter the menu.

4. Scroll to CALIBRATE ZEROPOINT
option and press the LIGHT button.
5. Follow the on-screen instructions;
place the calibration tool on the
flywheel, rotate back until the tool fits
between the magnets of the brake
assembly, and then press the LIGHT
button.

6. Turn the brake knob clockwise until the
brake mechanism makes contact with
the calibration tool and press the
LIGHT button.
Do not over tighten.
7. The console will display that the
Zeropoint is now set. Press the LIGHT
button to exit CALIBRATE
ZEROPOINT.
8. Once the calibration passes, go to
CALIBRATE CURRENT ANGLE and
verify the angle is 0.0 (+/- 0.1 degrees).
Occasionally, the calibration process
does not correctly set the angle on the
first try. If the angle reads anything
other than 0.0 (+/- 0.1 degrees),
perform the calibration again until the
CURRENT ANGLE reads 0.0 (+/- 0.1
degrees).
Note: The sensor measures in degrees, so
0.0 –0.1 = 359.9.
9. At this point calibration is done. Exit the service menu and remove the tool from the
flywheel (keep for future use).

How to Use Power Adjust to Adjust Watts Values
The PWR ADJUST option in the CALIBRATE menu is designed to allow the user to adjust the
power (watts) values of a bike up or down between the range of -99% to +99%. Many riders will
perceive that the watts output—even after properly calibrating the sensor—will be “too low”
despite being more accurate.
PWR ADJUST allows the power (watts) output to be adjusted up or down until a desired level is
reached. It is also intended to be used in the event that users feel the power (watts) values are
lower or higher than desired, or to be used when a particular bike or bikes vary from other bikes
even after performing the calibration.
Given normal manufacturing tolerances, there may be rare cases where some bikes still vary
noticeably from other bikes. Before adjusting the watts output of any bike, first perform the
calibration steps above. Use the PWR ADJUST to adjust a bike’s Power output. A positive (+)
angle offset will increase the power (watts) output for a given level of resistance (making the
bike feel “easier”). A negative (-) angle offset will decrease the power (watts) output for a given
level of resistance (making the bike feel “harder”).
To set the angle OFFSET:
1. Enter the service menu.
2. Enter the CALIBRATE menu.
3. Scroll to the PWR ADJUST menu and press the LIGHT button to enter the menu.
4. Use the AVG MAX button to increase the watts output (+ offset), or use the STAGE
button to decrease the watts output (- offset). Once the desired offset is reached, press
the LIGHT button to save the value.
5. Exit the menu and go back to ride mode.
