I have a cateye ISC12 integrated speed and cadence sensor that works ok with my Roam, but finicky because my wheel magnet keeps sliding. I went ahead and got a magnetless speed sensor for my hub and removed the ISC12 wheel magnet, thinking I could use the cateye for just cadence and the new sensor for speed. But I am having an issue where speed or cadence will periodically cut out while riding so am wondering if my Roam reads the ISC as a speed sensor despite the absence of a magnet so won’t take signals from both sensors simultaneously. Is it possible to use the cateye for just cadence while using a separate speed sensor much like I do on my other bike with separate wahoo speed and cadence sensors?
Hi Philip, I would recommend reaching out to our support team to help on that one, https://support.wahoofitness.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
Thanks,I did that.No answer but I think I have my answer nonetheless. Twice now during rides, when I was initially getting readings from the cadence monitor, the wahoo unit dropped connection with the cateye. At first I thought the battery had died because the setting display showed no bars next to cateye. But after I turned the wahoo off and back on and spun my cranks, the sensor reconnected. Clearly wahoo does not like trying to read multiple sensors unless they are sending distinctly different signals. I suppose I could buy a separate cadence sensor, which I am sure would work with the speed sensor on my hub, but this is my commuter so speed and distance are allI I really need.
They will get back to you soon, this is a busy time of year already and we just launched the new computers which puts even more load on that team. We do support sensors in this manner, that’s why you’re able to select the one you want to connect , so that shouldn’t be the issue, but maybe there is something else the cateye is doing that we hadn’t heard about in this scenario.
