Manual Entry
ANT+ sensors have simple ANT+ IDs that can be entered
and saved to the Dash without using the search
function. If the sensor has a visible ANT+ ID, it can be
added directly into the activity sensors list:
Connecting to Sensors
1. Go to: Main Menu > Activity Sensors > Add
Sensors > Manual Entry.
2. Select Sensor Type, then use the arrow buttons
to select the correct sensor category.
3. Press the enter button to confirm selection, then
select Confirm.
4. Locate the ANT+ ID number on your sensor and
enter it into the number field.
• Use the arrow buttons
to change the digit
and then use the enter button to advance to

• Note that if your sensor ID is shorter than the
number of fields, it should be preceded by 0s.
Sensors include power meters, heart rate monitors,
smart phones, or any other wireless transmitting device
that use ANT+ or Bluetooth® to transfer data.
For the Dash to find and connect to a sensor during a
ride, the sensor must first be paired to the current
Activity Profile. Once a sensor is paired to an activity
profile, the Dash will remember it until it has been
deleted from the activity profile’s sensor list.
When pairing a sensor, first select the Activity Profile in
which you will be using the sensor.
To select a different Activity Profile, see Changing
Activity Profiles.

Stages Power Meter
Zero Resetting a Power Meter
Stages Power Meters paired to Dash have additional
functionality available explained in the following
sections:
The zero reset process, also referred to as calibration or
zero offset calibration, resets the zero value on your
power meter for improved accuracy. Please refer to the
manufacturer for instructions on the zero reset process
for your power meter. To initiate a zero reset from the
Dash:
NFC Tap to Pair
You can pair your Stages Power meter via BLE, ANT+, or
NFC (tap to pair). To use tap to pair:
1. Ensure sensor is transmitting and paired to Dash.
• For a Stages Power meter, orient the power
meter vertically with no weight on the pedals.
2. Select Zero Reset from the home screen, or go to:
Main Menu > Activity Sensors > Select Power
Sensor > Zero Reset.
3. A screen prompt will return Success with the
value(s) from the power meter or Failure if it
cannot complete the zero reset process.
1. Go to: Main Menu > Activity Sensors > Add
Sensors.
2. Touch the back of the Dash to your Stages Power
meter.
3. Wait for the beep to confirm the pairing is
completed.
Dual Channel Reception
When you pair to a Stages Power Meter, the Dash
automatically pairs to BLE and ANT simultaneously and
records data from both to ensure the best data
connectivity. If you wish to use a 3rd party app to
connect to a Stages Power Meter via Bluetooth, you will
need to disable the Bluetooth connection to your power
meter.
Sensors Already Saved to Dash
Once a sensor is paired to any activity profile, it will
appear in the list of saved devices found here: Main
Menu > Activity Sensors > Add Sensor > Saved Sensors.
A previously paired sensor does not need to be present
to pair to an additional Activity Profile. Simply select it
from this list and the sensor will be added to the current
activity profile. Sensors already paired to Dash will not
appear in ANT or BLE search lists!
To enable or disable the Bluetooth connect, go to: Main
Menu > Activity Sensors > Select Stages Power Meter >
Bluetooth > Enabled / Disabled
Riding with Dash
Start a Ride
First confirm that the desired Activity Profile is selected
and listed under the word Ride on the home screen. If
not, see Changing Activity Profiles.
•
•
High Speed
Press the
button to begin recording.
During a ride, all the settings in the current Activity
Profile apply; see Activity Profiles for more
information.
Pausing a Ride
High speed mode is a special feature available only on
Stages Power meters connected via Bluetooth®. It is not
recommended to use this mode for normal riding, as it
will drain battery from the power meter quickly and
uses up a significant amount of memory on the Dash. It
is most useful for brief recordings, such as analyzing
short efforts (e.g. durations under 3 minutes).
Pressing the start/stop button
will manually pause
the ride. When a ride is paused, no data is recorded
from sensors, so all averages and totals will not change.
This can be useful when stopping for longer periods.
•
To turn high speed mode on or off, go to: Main Menu >
Activity Settings > Select Activity Profile > High Speed
To resume a ride, simply press start/stop
or select Resume Ride from the on screen
message.

•
•
Navigation in Ride
After being paused for a long duration, the Dash
will automatically go to sleep. Press /
to
wake up the Dash and resume the ride where
you left off or save the ride if it has already
been completed.
All previously recorded data will be retained
upon entering sleep mode and can be saved or
deleted by ending the activity. However, after 3
hours of sleep, the Dash will save the current
ride and power off completely.
Viewing Data Pages
By default, all rides begin on Page 1. Use the arrow
buttons
during a ride to change data pages in the
current Activity Profile.
Accessing the Ride Menu in a Ride
The settings that can be changed are available in a
smaller Ride menu.
•
See Also: Sleep
•
Note: Manually pausing a ride with the start/stop
button is slightly different than pauses triggered by
conditions in the ride, see Data Recording for more
information.
To access the Ride Menu during a ride, Press
to Pause the Ride > Ride Menu.
To exit the Ride Menu and return to the ride
screen, press the lap button or select Ride.
Ending a Ride
Pressing
will display a Ride Paused on screen
message with the following options:
•
•
•
Resume Ride: Continues recording ride.
End Ride and Save: Displays a brief ride summary
and saves the activity to memory. Once ride is
saved, a more in-depth summary of the ride is
available that can be navigated using arrow
buttons
End Ride and Delete: Discards the ride from
memory, returns to home screen.
From the Ride Menu, you can:
•

Laps
Laps allow the rider to keep track of specific segments
of a ride through use of the lap button . At ride start,
the first lap also starts recording Lap Totals and
Averages. Each time the rider presses the lap button,
the lap re-starts and begins recording averages and
totals from the beginning of the current lap. Laps are
very useful for riding a workout, as well as keeping track
of more specific parts of rides, such as pacing up a
climb.

Ride Data Recording
Ride data is recorded to the Dash as frequently as it is
available. For more information on when data recording
is paused, see Data Recording. The Stages .rde file,
when used with Stages Link, allows more data than
standard file formats to be saved. See .fit Export for
conversion to the industry standard FIT file.
Upon pressing the lap button, a new lap will begin
automatically and any lap-based data fields will
restart to include only the current lap.
A small summary of the previous lap will be shown
with an overlay message.
All lap data will be saved into the ride file for postride evaluation.
Data Pages
Data Pages consist of up to 16 fields of customizable
size and content. Each activity profile is allowed up to 5
10
data pages, with a wide range of configuration options
to view all of your preferred data metrics with ease.
To disable a page, go to: Main Menu > Activity Settings
> Edit Pages > Disable/Enable
Editing Pages
Data Fields
All pages in an activity profile can be customized by
changing the field size, metric, span, and totaling of the
field. Data pages can be edited within the unit, as well
as in Stages Link in the Dash Manager Tab. Configuring
pages in Stages Link is a simple process that allows for
you to preview each configuration before syncing them
to the Dash.
Data fields make up the ride data pages and can be
customized by size and data displayed.
Data Field Categories
A metric refers to data recorded from a sensor or GPS
that gives information about the ride to the rider.
Metrics have been categorized to make them easier to
find when editing a field. The categories are:

resizing fields requires shifting other fields on the page,
starting in this corner will ensure that previously
adjusted fields aren’t affected by field size changes that
follow.

Riding a Workout
Workouts are ordered laps with prescribed effort that
help a rider train properly. Stages Link can provide
workouts and sync them to the Dash via USB (Stages
Sync™) or Bluetooth (Stages Link App).
Average: The average rate of a metric over the
selected span, e.g.: 3s Average Power.
Maximum: The maximum average of the metric
over the selected span, e.g.: Max 30s Power.
Total: The accumulated total amount of a metric
over the selected span, e.g.: kJs in this Lap.
Per H: The rate at which something is accumulating
in an hour (kJs, Calories, TSS, T-Score) , e.g.:
Calories per Hour.
All workout data is saved directly to the ride file when
riding the workout.
To select a workout to ride:

3. Select a workout from either of these lists to view
an on screen message with a description of the
workout.
4. Select Ride to begin a ride with the selected
workout file.
