Using your RIVAL to record a workout with a smart trainer

The ELEMNT RIVAL can be connected to your Smart Trainer (Wahoo or another smart trainer) to control your trainer or record data from your workouts.  Note that some trainers will not allow simultaneous Bluetooth connections, so if your trainer will no longer connect to SYSTM, discontinue the concurrent use of the ELEMNT Rival.

When you connect your RIVAL to SYSTM, you MUST connect it in "Passive" mode, or the RIVAL will be in control of your Smart Trainer and ERG mode will no longer work properly within SYSTM.

Connect Your Smart Trainer To Your RIVAL

1. From the main watch face, press the middle right button to open the workout profile menu.
2. Using the top and bottom right buttons, scroll to "KICKR" (you can use this setting for any smart trainer), and press the middle right button to select your workout profile.
   1. • If your trainer is not paired, you will be prompted to pair - press the middle right button to "pair KICKR".
      • When your trainer is paired, you will be prompted to save - press the middle right button to "save".
3. Press and hold the bottom left button to enter the workout settings page for the KICKR workout profile.  
4. Use the top and bottom right buttons to scroll to KICKR Mode.
5. Press the middle right button to scroll between "passive", "level", and "target watts".  Choose "passive" in order to use your smart trainer with SYSTM.
6. Press the bottom left button to exit the workout profile menu.  Your workout profile for your smart trainer is now set on "passive" and will allow the RIVAL to record data from the trainer, but NOT control the trainer.
7. Press the middle right button to start your trainer workout, and record your workout as you normally would on your RIVAL.
