Please help!!! I am confused.
I am a bit confused with the Polar CS600 Power Output unit.
During the install, there are instructions to mount the cadence magnet and on the power unit (the work cadence is on it). The instruction manual does not explain what this particular cadence is for.
What I "think" I understand is if you have the power unit and you want to take advantage of the cadence functions in the CS600 computer, you have to get the additional cadence sensor (which I got). So, now I got two "cadence sensors"?
When I look at the features list on the PolarUSA site, it shows
<snip>
Cadence-based target zones with visual and audible alarm
optional with Cadence WIND/ Power WIND sensor Power-based target zones with visual and audible alarm
Opt. with Power Output
<end snip>
In addtion, the polarUSA site says that the cadence is built-in.
<snip>
The Polar Power Output Sensor W.I.N.D. also has a built-in cadence sensor.
<end snip>
Is this description stating there are 2 types of power output sensors? One is a Power Output and the other is a Cadence/Power (combined) sensor?
When I read through the manuals, it shows to set up cadence with the Power sensor, but then when you get to the cadence section, it says to refer to the cadence sensor instructions, indicating there should be a cadence sensor.
When I attempt to set the cadence sensor with just the power unit, the CS600 says it can't find a cadence sensor. When I put on the additional cadence sensor, the CS600 finds it. Confused? I am...
The question is: Is the cadence sensor on the power sensor truly for cadence? If so, I don't need the additional cadence sensor?
I must admit I am not the brightest lad in the crowd and the cadence part of the power unit has me confused.
Any info concerning this would be great!
