A solid red light on the LED indicator generally indicates the device is in what’s called a “bootloader state.” This is a state where the trainer will not be responsive or able to be detected by virtual software. A remedy for this is available through the Saris Utility app for iOS and Android. Download the app from your respective app store - once installed, select UPDATE FIRMWARE. This will initiate a Bluetooth scan (make sure Bluetooth is enabled on the device), and “ Saris_Boot_xxxx_xxxx” should show up on the list of Devices. Select this listing, and that will begin a firmware update. This update will essentially overwrite the existing faulty software on the trainer, ultimately instating a proper and fully functional software version. This will restore the trainer to a working state.
