You are correct and the manual (and me) is most definitely wrong.

TWENTY steps (count'em - 20) into setup is 'press the whatever button' to start pairing. There is absolutely zero reference to having to wake up the sensors nor is there any reference anywhere in the manual to this concept (outside of the very last page which references connecting). Note that EVERY ONE of the 19 previous steps can be done without 'sentient sensors'.

One of two things has happened here (in retrospect)

1) The manual is badly thought out

2) My LBS didn't deliver to me sensor documentation that would have clarified this. Even so, IMHO, the complete lack of reference to such documentation (if it exists) in the computer docs is still a significant 'error'. But see my post at http://www.bikeforums.net/electronic...-question.html to see why I might have a bias here.
