Zwift & Trainer control

[junkie_ball]

Ok so i used zwift today for the first time in over a year and have a question regarding gradients. I have a Bkool smart pro trainer and when connecting the trainer it connects as a power source rather than a controllable trainer meaning it's not controlling gradients. Am i doing something wrong as could not get it to see my trainer as as a controllable one no matter what i tried.

The gradient control works fine on the bkool software but really wanted to give zwift a try for the next couple months but without gradient control i may change back.

You may need to manually select it under controllable trainer.

You may need to manually select it under controllable trainer.

Tried that but when i clicked the controllable trainer button the search window popped up but i the trainer did not show up.

Just done a search and apparently on the bkool smart pro you need to do a firmware update so it will work with Ant+ & FE-C. Should of checked first before posting. I will try that and let everyone know if it works as may help others on here.

Ok just confirm updating the firmware of the trainer to Ant+ FE-C worked. Connects to zwift as a controllable trainer now. Will be hard up that mountain next time i guess. lol
