1. Remove your old cranks.
2. Remove the allen bolt for the
cable guide, leaving the
cables in place. Some guides
are riveted or glued, or are
not present. Consult a
technican or get your system
installed if you are uncertain.
3. Loosen the cables so you can
slide the cadence magnet
under the guide. Make sure
the magnet faces the lid on
the back of the PowerMeter
4. Align the magnet and cable
guide to reinstall the bolt. Do
not fully tighten. You will need
to adjust it when testing the
PowerControl (see page 8).

1. Install your new PowerMeter and cranks according to the
original manufacturer instructions. If a bottom bracket
came with your new PowerMeter you must install that.
2. Adjust the cadence magnet so it is 3-5mm from the

1. SRM provides handlebar clips
to mount PowerControls to
various handlebars.
2. Mount the handlebar clip to

In Sleep Mode the PowerControl
shows the version of the firmware
installed.
In this example the firmware
version is June 21, 2010.
Press  once to awake the PowerControl from Sleep Mode.
Starting with generation 7, the PowerControl has an integrated
motion sensor that activates the unit when motion is detected. The
PowerControl switches off into Sleep Mode automatically after three
minutes (can be changed through the computer software). The
integrated motion sensor switches the unit on as long as it is not
switched off manually (see below). The PowerControl will not enter
Sleep Mode while it is receiving data from any of the sensors.
Press  longer than 10 seconds to manually enter Sleep Mode
and deactivate the integrated motion sensor. This is useful during
transport. Press  once to awake the PowerControl from
Sleep Mode and reactivate the integrated motion sensor.

The PowerControl needs to be paired with the PowerMeter, Speed
Sensor and Heartrate strap. The PowerControl will not receive data
until it is paired. Pairing the sensors with the PowerControl is only
possible if the sensors are switched on.
1. Switch on the PowerMeter by pedaling the crank forwards a few
times (it will switch on when the magnet passes by).
2. Switch on the speed sensor by spinning the wheel.
3. Switch on heartrate sensor by putting the belt on your chest.
Please moisten the electrodes to improve contact.
4. Switch on the PowerControl by pressing the  button.
Hold for about 3 seconds to enter Sensor Pairing Mode. Press 
to start searching for the PowerMeter.
The antenna symbol blinking on the
right of the display shows that the
searching process has started. The
search bar in the middle of the dis-
play shows the progress of the
search. If no signal is picked up,
make sure if the PowerMeter is
switched on (turn the crank) and the cadence magnet is 3-5mm
away from the PowerMeter lid. When the PowerMeter is found, the
PowerControl will show ”Found” on the top line, alternating with the
serial number. Press  then to confirm the PowerMeter.
Press  to select the next device (heartrate sensor).
The PowerControl is initially set to
"Suunto" heartrate sensors. If
necessary, press  to select

If no signal is picked up, check if the sensor pads are well placed
around your chest and moistened. When the heartrate belt is found,
the PowerControl will show ”Found” on the top line, alternating with
the serial number. Press  then to confirm this sensor. If the
serial number of a sensor is known, this can be entered in the SRM
software in the setup menu under "special/hardware".
Press  to select the next device (speed sensor).

To download your training files and setup the PowerControl using
your computer, use the supplied CD or download the SRM Software
at www.srm.de and install it at Windows 2000, XP, Vista and
Windows 7 computer. The SRM software installer will offer the
following choices:
1. Standard setup
Will install the SRM Software
with drivers for PC VI and 7.
2. Software only (for Updates)
Will install only the SRM
Software without drivers.
3. Software and all drivers
Will install the SRM Software
with drivers for PC IV, V and
PC VI, 7.
If needed, the software and drivers are also available separately on
the supplied CD or at www.srm.de.
Plug in the PowerControl with the Mini USB cable. Once the PC7 is
attached and recognized, the drop-down box with PC7 will grey out.
Enter your name or initials, interval of storage (seconds). Make sure
the ”automatic” box is checked, so the PowerControl will pick up
preprogrammed slope from the PowerMeter automatically. To
manually enter the slope, uncheck the ”automatic” box. Enter
circumference of tire (2095mm is the default). To make your speed
and distance accurate, do a roll-out and enter this number in
millimeters. Clicking the ”Special” button, will allow you to customize
your top line display, turn on or off Training Zones and change units
from metric to English.
