"LOW BATT" I guessHe's also got a two word alert that shows up on his display (can't remember what it says)

I'll check next time I ride with him. Thanks Stefan."LOW BATT" I guessThe button battery should be replaced in the display.
From the docs with my wireless version, the display can be changed although pressing and re-pressing those awful buttons is not something I feel like attempting.Really enjoying the new Como, I don't want my ride to end! Does anyone know if there is a way to customize the display so that everything you want to see it on the same screen? Right now I have to change screens to see what I want, there are 4 items per screen so when I'm on MPH I also get stuff I don't need like Max MPH etc. I'd like to be able to see current speed and trip ODO on the same page. Maybe I'll be able to do it once I download Mission Control?
@bigb : Download Mission Control. Connect it to your Como. If it is anything like my Tero, then select Tune>Customize Display. You will be presented with several customizable formats. showing up to 6 items at a time. Screens can also be added.Really enjoying the new Como, I don't want my ride to end!

I just want to mention the number of data fields per a data page is limited by any cycling computer. The reason is good visibility on a small surface of the display.Really enjoying the new Como, I don't want my ride to end!

You are totally right @kahn! I didn't look at the picture from @bigb as it didn't display at the time I read his post.It looks as if @bigb wants to edit the display pages of the TCD, the small computer shown in his picture. While Mission Control can also be altered to display other things, some folks keep their larger phones off the handlebars.
I hope this link works
I think that there are youtube videos, too.
Correct, I just want to "Re-arrange" the display so the items I want are all on the same screen, I don't want to add more items and I don't want to use my cell phone for a display. I didn't think the display was wireless though, mine has 2 wires coming off the back and into the frame.It looks as if @bigb wants to edit the display pages of the TCD, the small computer shown in his picture.

A common confusion!I didn't think the display was wireless though, mine has 2 wires coming off the back and into the frame.
No, where?Anybody notice the change to this forum? Used to just say forum, now it's Ebike forum.
Thanks, I was able to program it so I can see MPH, Trip ODO and Time at one glance. It would have been nice to program the "remaining battery/heart rate/cadence" field to the elapsed time display instead but not possible, not a big deal as I can toggle to it when I want to or just keep track on the clock.You are totally right @kahn! I didn't look at the picture from @bigb as it didn't display at the time I read his post.
To explain: the Como display of @bigb is Generation 1 TCD-w. It is highly customizable using the display buttons but it has a limited set of data fields per data page.
@ReedM has Generation 2 TCD-w which is customizable from Mission Control and allows up to 6 data fields per data page.
All TCD displays are capable; these cannot just do everything. Hence my aware choice of a Wahoo ELEMNT bike GPS computer that connects to Specialized e-bikes. The main Data Page can have as many as 11 Data Fields there. (I use the second Data Page for GPS navigation). I swap the Wahoo between my both Specialized e-bikes, and the computer recognizes each of them automatically!Thanks, I was able to program it so I can see MPH, Trip ODO and Time at one glance.

That is nice, I'll put one on my list. Is there a monthly fee for the GPS?All TCD displays are capable; these cannot just do everything.

Nothing! The GPS and updatable maps are included free.That is nice, I'll put one on my list. Is there a monthly fee for the GPS?
There is nothing like PAS-only in the premium mid-drive motors. A mid-drive motor only pays the attention to the product of how hard you push your pedals (torque) and of your pedalling rotational speed (cadence). The product is called "pedalling power" or "human power input". In given Assistance Level, the bike controller multiplies your pedalling power by so called Boost Factor, and such mechanical power of the motor (combined with your own) is transferred to the rear wheel.Does PAS care what gear I am in? For example, today I wanted to try the power on some steep hills. I switched it on to #1 but I stayed in a higher gear to keep up the speed and get more of a workout. If I do this does that make the system work harder and possibly use more battery than if I shift to a lower gear?
