bike computer

Quoted message said:

I've got an old bike computer and would like any information on it that I can get. It's grey with
2 button (1 white, 1 yellow). It also has a white "P" in the upper left corner.

Jim: It's an old Schwinn (P for Paramount) unit. The buttons tended to go bad after just a couple of
years, and your unit it probably at least 10 years old by now. If it still works and you're just
trying to figure out how to calibrate it, with most units you can do so via trial and error. Remove
the batteries, wait maybe a minute or so for it to reset, then put them back in and figure out which
button changes the setting #, and which one moves on to the next setting.
