ANT+ power meter trainer control with the Wahoo app

When using a Wahoo smart trainer (KICKR, MOVE, CORE, or SNAP) you can use the Wahoo app to link your pedal or crank based ANT+ power meter to your trainer. You can then use the power reading of your ANT+ power meter to modify the trainer's native power meter reading to control the resistance of your trainer in the Wahoo app, with ELEMNT computers, or in 3rd party apps (Zwift, TrainerRoad, etc).  The pairing will persist (provided the power meter is on/in range) until unpaired in the Wahoo app.

The pairing does not directly replace the trainer's power readings with the power meter's, but influences the trainer's power readings and resistance.

In order for this to work, you will need to know the 5 digit ANT+ ID of your power meter.

Identify your power meter's ANT+ ID.

If the power meter also can connects via Bluetooth (like our POWRLINK Zero pedals) , you can see this in the Wahoo app > My Sensors > power meter > Sensor InformationANT+ ID

If not, it is often listed on the power meter itself.

 

Enable the Feature

  1. Ensure the KICKR is plugged in and awake (by pedaling a few revolutions).
  2. Open the Wahoo Fitness app to the Devices tab and select your trainer.
  3. Once fully connected, scroll down to Control w/ANT+ power meter and toggle it on.
  4. Enter your power meter's 5 digit ANT+ ID and select OK.
