• Communication with external sensors

  The ROX 4.0 can connect to external sensors using two different radio protocols: Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and ANT +. Please note that many sensors offer both protocols.
  In that case you only have to connect ONE of the two channels to receive the data from the sensor. We recommend using the ANT + channel here.

  The following sensors can be connected:
  BLE / ANT +:
  › Speed ​​sensor
  › Cadence sensor
  › Combo sensors for speed and cadence
  › Heart rate sensors (e.g. chest strap)

  Please refer to the sensor manufacturer’s operating instructions to find out whether your sensors support the protocols mentioned. How to establish the connection can be found in the chapter
  Setting the connection to external sensors. If the sensor has been found by the ROX 4.0, you will receive a short message about the successful connection.

Basically, you have different options to adjust the settings of the ROX 4.0 according to your wishes. You can do this either directly on the device or with the SIGMA RIDE app.

• Change settings on the device

  This chapter describes the settings that you can set in the main menu. If you have already started the training, you only have a selection of setting options in the quick menu.

  sigma-download.com

• Third party providers

  The training data of the ROX 4.0 is available as a .FIT file. Therefore all portals that use this standard can read the data of the ROX 4.0. You can export to relevant third-party providers using the SIGMA RIDE app. If the portal you want is not available for automatic synchronization, you also have the option of uploading the .FIT files directly to the third-party provider. To do this, you have to connect the ROX 4.0 to the PC via a USB-C cable. The training data can then be found in the Activities folder.

  

The SIGMA Performance Index, or SPI for short, offers you an objective assessment of your training performance. You can find this value for every training unit within the SIGMA RIDE app. The value is made up of 3 different variables:
› The meters in altitude uphill
› The total distance of the training
› The average speed

If these values ​​increase, the SPI also increases. If you look at your SPI values ​​over time, you can see a clear increase, stagnation or performance -recognize deterioration.
The SPI does not consider any individual data such as heart rate or performance. The value is given without a unit and can have values ​​between 1 and 9999, with most values ​​in the range from 1- 600.

These examples will give you a feel for the SPI:

The following examples illustrate the meaning and interpretation of the SPI:
› In a cycle race, all athletes drive the same route. The one with the highest SPI wins. The altitude and distance are the same for all athletes, only the highest average speed makes the difference here.
› If you drive the same route with the same average speed but less elevation gain, the SPI will decrease because the elevation gain is taken into account in the calculation
› If two athletes drive the same distance at the same speed, they have the same SPI value, even if heart rate and performance may be different.

You have the following options to update the firmware of the device:
› Use of the SIGMA RIDE app

You can find out whether a new update is available for your device when you connect the device to the SIGMA RIDE app. If there is new firmware, you will receive a message in
