I can't really figure out what "Rate of Display" setting does for watts, speed, cadence and heart rate does...
For example, does this mean if it's 30 seconds, your current speed will only change on the display every 30 seconds?
Thanks in advance
correct. you can adjust how often the screen updates. If it is on 1 second it is very jumpy and will show every data point on the screen (if you have it in 1 sec recording). 2 seconds will average 2 seconds of data and display that. 3 seconds will average 3 seconds and display that, etc... I have all of mine set to 2 seconds but I think most people use 3 seconds. It is really preference.
