Can't Attach Power data

(1/2) > >>

5am:
First time user of topofusion after seeing an annoucement on the google wattage forum. I've exported a .tcx file of a ride from my Garmin 205 Forerunner. I then exported a powertap .csv file of the same ride from trainingpeaks wko software (file was originally imported as .csv file from my ibike power meter into trainingpeaks. Ibike and trainingpeaks are compatible and training peaks works flawlessly with ibike .csv files). I load the tcx file into topofusion then run power analysis adding the powertap .csv file. So far, I think this is the correct procedure as I read the manual.

When I run auto offset I get a -1722 power data offset figure and something like a 22 km/h mean error. The GPS file elapsed time is 2:17:08 and power elapsed time is 2:09:26.

All attempts to "attach" power data from the file to the tcx file fail.

Can anybody explain why the attach power attempt failed? Is the auto offset result simply too large? If I try to interpolate GPS to 1 second a get a window asking if I want to file a bug report.

Krein:
Sounds like you are doing everything right.

An offset of -1722 is about 28 minutes which does sound a little off, but it should still give you a valid attachment (it should still "work").

When you say that all attempts to attach power fail, how does it fail?  Does an error come up, or?

In any case, if you can send both of your files to support@topofusion.com we can take a look and get back to you.  

Thanks and sorry about the issues.

5am:
No error comes up upon hitting the attach power button. Nothing happens as far as I can see.

In any case, I'll email you the files per your suggestion. Many thanks in advance for any help.

Krein:
Go to Map->Track Shading and choose Power.

Sounds like it is working in that it's adding more data to your TCX file.  (Also profile the track and you'll see power data).

Now, whether or not the offset is correct is a different issue.  I'll take a look when I get the files.  Thanks.

5am:
Sorry for the delay, but files emailed today.
