The 'Unofficial' Tacx Forum

It has become increasingly difficult to get the Tacx bluetooth HRM to connect with the TDA. Taking forever, and today not at all. It connects instantly to the trainer, the Garmin bike computer or the TTA (android). It also connects instantly on Rouvy on the same computer. Anyone having the same pro...

Yes, I can see that a long cage might get in the way.

Hello Michael, Thank you for your reply. This issue is now solved. My TDA Settings - Training screen, does not have a vertical scroll bar so thought there was no additional screen available until Tacx advisor gently reminded me of the center wheel on my mouse which enabled me to scroll the full scr...

I am not familiar with Campy freewheels with your trainer (I have a Neo 2T as well). But if Tacx support is telling you it will not work, they may be correct. You can always try different spacers to see if it helps. Do you have a picture showing how it is touching? Can you put a small spacer were th...

In TDA, you can use numbers on the key pad to turn off various mini-screens (widgets). If you go to Settings - Key Bindings, it will tell which keys control which widgets. Using the key bindings, you can also change which key controls which widget.

I would suggest that you search this forum on issues for reinstalling TTS on a new computer. It is very difficult if you do not have your old authorization files because all the Tacx servers used to authorize a new installation are long gone.

I never use TTA, but for starters I would suggest trying it on a different mobile device to see if the problem continues.

You could also try your hardware with TDA on a PC to determine if you have a hardware problem.

Hi all, does anyone here know how to film your own cycle route and then add to tts4 along with ride data (elevation etc) to repeat the route whilst training? He’ll much appreciated Shaun To my knowledge, it is not possible to make your own TTS videos. Some third-party sellers of TTS-compatible vide...

Here's a link to the same issue I was describing on a later model Tacx Genius trainer: https://waywardcyclist.wordpress.com/2015/07/20/taming-a-noisy-tacx-genius-trainer/ Without looking carefully, I can't really diagnose your problem. Be sure the roller and tire are clean. The Fortius is not that a...

Michael, Thanks for your reply. No nothing changed. I have this power break since 2012 (when i bought the Tacx Fortius) Nothing has been changed in the settings and there were no hills. 0.3% in my opinion is not really a hill . regards, Rick8245 I was an early user of the Fortius trainer. It had lo...

Which trainer (brake) are you using. It might have a problem. Any chance that you have changed any settings, such as body and bike weight. For a flat course, there seem to be quite a few changes in power during the ride. Are these small hills?

Yes that’s the part. I put ohms setting on electric meter and flashed the magnet over the reed but the reading stays at zero so I suspect the reed has corroded, I’m going to try and source a replacement which I know will be impossible. How can I make one of these ? You might be able to find one as ...

It’s the tacx basic model might be T1601 Could you tell me how to test I have a multi meter please run through how to go about testing the item I presume I attach the two leads from the multi meter to the jack plug. If the reed is ok what reading should I get when the magnet passes over the sensor ...

Does anyone have a tacx cadence sensor they wish to sell? Mine has stopped working and I don’t know how to test Any help greatly received I don't recognize the T1610 number. What software and trainer are you using? If it is an old Fortius or Imagic (Flow) trainer, the cadence sensor is a simple on-...

Not sure there is a way to use the newer TTS videos (which have a *.tts control file) with the older Fortius software, which have *.rlv and *.pgmf control files. The systems are just quite different.

My impression is technical limitations make stitching single streetview-type images into a continuous, smooth, high resolution video that is linked to altitude changes just make this unrealistic, particularly if this has to be created in realtime. There is also the legal issue of using the images fo...

Use Google Translate. It works quite well.

I am advised that this is a known bug if the user language is set to something other than English. The temporary workaround is to either change the language to English or only use the streaming option until it is fixed.

I just tried a couple of short downloads and did not have any problem or any kind of file size mismatch, so if you are still experiencing this you really should contact Garmin/Tacx support.

Have you contacted Garmin/Tacx support?

yes, that is correct… I had this one back in the good old Tacx day already installed but now I lost my harddisk with the video file… so honestly I only need the avi… Did you keep all your video files on a separate drive? yes, most of them - why? If you purchased and installed the video, don't you h...

Did you keep all your video files on a separate drive?

hope that it is ok to post this request here… I am looking for this video, willing to pay for it, of course. Maybe somebody will sell it… I'm working from memory, but I think this is an RLV that requires a code for authentication, so I am not sure you will be able to get it to work now due to the T...

Hello everyone . Sorry first for my bad english!!! I have a realy bad problem with the tacx software tts3 and now also with the tts4. I have a old Tacx flow 2222 with the tts3 software. After some changes and the damage of my lod laptop was no posibility from tacx -onlinesuport posible. They don´t ...

Is it possible to connect a Noe 2T to TTS4 I have not tried it, but it should work using ANT+ (not Bluetooth). There has been some discussion of this on this forum: https://lunicus.org/Forum/viewtopic.php?t=306 6-21-22 Update : Today I tried TTS4 with my Neo2T and a ANT+ transmitter and it appeared...

Interesting but no change. I brought my office PC back home and downloaded TDA 4.29.0.0 (x65 update 26/4/2022) to try it. So it also connects by Bluetooth you can see 2 lights on (in this case BT and Wattage). The same issue, like with the Mac App - you go to calibrate it, again you bike like a cra...

No that is the TDA from the Apple Store from the desktop, although the app for the ipad and phone is very similar indeed. The TDA is Version 4.25.5 (8860). I just looked at the Garmin website, and TDA for the Mac was discontinued in January 2022: https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?productID=696769&a...

When you press about the app, what does it say? This looks like the mobile training app, not TDA.

Here is how you do a screenshot on the Mac:

Is the second one TDA?
