Hello,
I have an edge 530 (v 9.10, no update available as of today) and an RTL 510 (v3.70, no update available as of today). Recently found out that the new cannondale synapse has an integrated varia radar/light system that changes from flashing light to solid light when decelerating (some sort of braking light we all are used to while driving). Since I own a varia radar and thought that was a great idea I googled a way to replicate that on my devices. Turns out that the option is somewhat there. A couple of post and comments points out that when a light network is correctly set up the RTL should appear as "taillight" and within its menu the "auto deceleration" toggle should activate that function. Unfortunately I can't make it work nor I could find exact infos.
So:
- is "auto deceleration" available only on RTL515 or on RT510 to? Can you link to something that definitely prove that?
- if it's available on 510. How do I get it? I tried unpairing and pairing in all sort of manner but I constantly have the light network formed withe the 510 listed as radar (see other links below) instead of taillight (so no option to toggle it on)
