Help: Saddle Pressure Analysis - Live View & Global Settings

Select / Configure Mask

Note: Before starting the bike fitting process, always begin with the mask selection!

• Mask Editor On/Off
  • Use the mask editor to adjust the mask according to the saddle shape. Enable it while editing your mask and disable it once you are finished.
• Save Mask
  • Give your created mask a meaningful name. Recommended names are the saddle type or even the exact saddle model the mask was created for.
• No Mask
  • Use the complete pressure sensor area for your pressure analysis.
• Narrow Mask
  • A narrow standard mask.
• Wide Mask
  • A wide standard mask.
• My Masks
  • A list of all your created and named saddle masks.

Max

When creating custom masks with the mask editor, try to avoid unnatural pressure peaks. The bar should never hit the maximum.

Comparison Mode

Enable or disable comparison mode for pressure images.

Global Settings (Live View)

Here you can centrally adjust the image processing and visualization of the live pressure image. All changes are applied immediately.

Contrast

Adjust the contrast of the pressure image to display pressure levels differently. For detailed visualization, seven different contrast levels are available.

Threshold

The threshold (range 0-100) defines the minimum pressure value that will be displayed. All pressure values below this threshold are hidden (set to 0). The maximum value remains unchanged. This helps suppress background noise and highlights only relevant pressure zones.

Sensitivity

Sensitivity (range 100-0) controls how sensitive the pressure visualization reacts. At 100, the signal is maximally amplified (even very small pressure differences become visible). At 0, the signal is maximally dampened (only strong pressure differences remain visible).

Grid

You can overlay a grid on the pressure image to identify pressure peaks on the saddle more precisely. Each square represents 1 cm².

CoP (Center of Pressure)

The CoP indicates the current overall center of pressure on the saddle. The following display options are available:

• CoP Global – Displays the overall center of pressure (left and right saddle sides combined).
• CoP Line (Connector) – When enabled, a line is drawn between the left and right CoP. This allows you to immediately see lateral shifts and the balance between both sides.

Trail (Movement Path)

The trail displays the recent movements of the pressure center (CoP) as a line in the live image.

• Show Trail – Enables the visibility of the movement trail. The trail automatically fades out after a short time to keep the live image clear and readable.
• Reset Trail – Manually clears the current trail if you want to start a new measurement.
