3 From the home screen, select > Sensors > Add Sensor > Power. 4 Rotate the crank arm a few times. When the sensor is paired with your Edge device, the sensor status is Connected. You can customize a data field to display Vector data. Your First Ride Before you ride with Vector for the first time, you must enter the crank length, set the installation angle of the sensors inside the pedals, and calibrate the static zero reference. You must also calibrate the system if you move Vector to another bike. These procedures contain instructions for the Edge 1000. If you have another compatible device, see Edge 810 and 510 Device Instructions, or go to www.garmin.com/ vectorowner. Entering the Crank Length The crank length is often printed on the crank arm. 1 Rotate the pedals a few times in order to activate Vector. 2 From the home screen, select > Sensors > > Sensor Details > Crank Length. 3 Enter the crank length, and select . Setting the Installation Angle Before you set the installation angles, you must set the Edge data fields to display power and cadence. 1 Go for a short ride on a trainer or on the road. 2 Ride until the cadence is nearly 70 rpm. 3 Accelerate smoothly to approximately 90 rpm. When the installation angles are successfully set, a message appears and data fields display power data on the Edge device (1000, 810, and 510 only). Performing a Static Zero Calibration NOTE: During this task, the bike must be in an upright position, and nothing can be touching the pedals. 1 From the home screen, select the status bar or swipe down from the top of the screen. The connections page appears. 2 Select > Calibrate. When the zero reference is determined, a message appears on the Edge device. Calibrating Vector Before Each Ride For best results, Garmin recommends calibrating Vector at the start of every ride. 1 Perform a static zero calibration. 2 Go for a ride. Customizing the Data Fields This procedure contains instructions for the Edge 1000, 810, 800, and 510 devices. If you have another compatible device, see Edge 500 Device Instructions. 1 Hold a data field to change it. 2 Select a category. 3 Select a data field. Training Pedal-Based Power Vector measures pedal-based power. Vector measures the force you apply a few hundred times every second. Vector also measures your cadence or rotational pedaling speed. By measuring the force, the direction of force, the rotation of the crank arm, and time, Vector can determine power (watts). Because Vector independently measures left and right leg power, it reports your left-right power balance. NOTE: The Vector S system does not provide left-right power balance. Maintenance Tips NOTICE Some bike tools may scratch the finish of Vector components. • Use wax paper or a towel between the tool and the hardware. • After any bike adjustments, rotate the crank arm to check for clearance. • Calibrate Vector at the start of every ride (Calibrating Vector Before Each Ride). • Keep Vector components clean. • When moving Vector to another bike, clean the threads and surfaces thoroughly. • Go to www.garmin.com/ vectorowner for the latest updates and information. Vector Data Your ride data or history is recorded to your Edge. NOTE: History is not recorded while the timer is stopped or paused. When the device memory is full, a message appears. The device does not automatically delete or overwrite your history. Upload your history to Garmin Connect™ periodically to keep track of all your ride data. Sending Your Ride to Garmin Connect NOTICE To prevent corrosion, thoroughly dry the USB port, the weather cap, and the surrounding area before charging or connecting to a computer. 1 Pull up the weather cap from the USB port . À Á 2 Plug the small end of the USB cable into the USB port on the device. 3 Plug the large end of the USB cable into a computer USB port. 4 Go to www.garminconnect.com/ start. 5 Follow the on-screen instructions.
