11) Make sure that the base of the RIZER is aligned with
the bicycle. (Pic. 12)
10) Before starting your workout, make sure that the fork is
secured to the RIZER support by pushing/pulling it.
Repeat the aforementioned procedures as indicated in
steps 9-10-11 before beginning each workout session.
Always use the RIZER on a flat surface.
HOME TRAINER PAIRING
In order to use the RIZER it is necessary to connect it to the
home trainer you're using for your workout. To do so you
must begin the pairing procedure. This procedure activates
by pressing and holding the lock symbol
part of the RIZER for 3 seconds. When the LED light starts
blinking the RIZER will search for home trainers close by
and select the closest one based on the signal received.
The same procedure can be activated via the RIZER control
app.
Note: should there be multiple home trainers in the same
room, we suggest turning off or at least move the home
trainers that do not need to connect to the RIZER further
away to avoid any mismatch.
Now the RIZER is fully configured and in working order.
In order to use it with a simulation software, make sure
that the LED light

05_OPERATING THE RIZER
RIZER features 2 operating modes:
- MANUAL: RIZER only moves following the cyclist's
commands.
- SIMULATION: RIZER automatically moves according to
the simulation commands that the software sends to the
home trainer.
MANUAL
MANUAL mode is selected when the LED light close the the
"lock"
symbol of the keyboard (Ref. Y) on the RIZER
is turned off. Should the LED light be on, the SIMULATION
mode is set and to get to MANUAL mode just tap the
"lock"
key on the keyboard; you can also do this
via the RIZER app. In Manual mode the cyclist sets the tilt
of the bicycle via the two arrow
keyboard or via the RIZER app.
By tapping the up / down key
decreases the bicycle's tilt by 1%.
To ensure safety and make it easier to hop on the bicycle
and step off it, RIZER automatically sets itself to zero after
5 seconds at home trainer speed 0 (zero).
Please check the "Safety Mode" paragraph for further info.
SIMULATION MODE
Simulation is selected when the LED light
"lock" symbol on the RIZER keyboard is on. If the LED
30
on the top
of the keyboard is on (Simulation
keys on the RIZER
the RIZER increases /
under the
light is off (Manual mode) just tap on the "lock" to switch
to Simulation mode. Modes can also be switched via the
RIZER app.
Tilt is automatically adjusted in simulation mode as a
function of the road conditions that the home trainer is
simulating. The software sends the home trainer the
simulation command of a predetermined gradient and,
then sends it to the RIZER which moves the cursor in order
to create the slope indicated by the software.
To ensure safety and make it easier to hop on the bicycle
and step off it, RIZER automatically sets itself to zero after
5 seconds at home trainer speed 0 (zero).
USING THE KEYBOARD AND THE APP
The keyboard (Ref. Y) activates the following main
functions:
Home trainer pairing:
holding the lock key
for 3 seconds
Mode Change between Manual and Simulation*:
tap the lock key
1% Tilt increase**:
1% Tilt decrease**:
Profile change***:
* LED light close to the lock key indicates the current mode.
LED light on
indicates Simulation mode, while if it's
off
it indicates the Manual mode.
** Only works if the RIZER is in Manual mode
*** LED light blinks as many times as the selected profile
number (for instance, Profile 3 > 3 blinks).
Control app manages the same functions as the keyboard
and many other parameters.
HANDLEBAR ROTATION
Other than raising and lowering the bicycle's fork, RIZER
also rotates the handlebar, thanks to the fork support
configuration (Ref. X, Pic. 13).
Handlebar rotation is measured and data is sent via
Bluetooth and ANT protocols to a software that elaborates
its value and can activate other functions.
Unlike the gradient simulation, you must connect the RIZER
directly to the software in the software configuration page
for the device to enable the rotation angle.
This configuration changes from software to software.
Please contact the software manufacturer to learn if it
manages the handlebar rotation angle picked up by the
RIZER and how to configure it.
Warning:
Not all software connects to the RIZER steering function.
Please check the Sterzo RIZER compatibility with the
software/app manufacturer.
CONNECTIONS
For the gradient simulation to work the home trainer must
send workout data via the ANT+ FE-C profile.
