Cycleops Powerbeam
Quote | Reply
I have Powerbeam ANT+ trainer and it is not FE-C compatible so I cant control it directly with my Garmin 820

Which software do you use to control the resistance, for example if I want to ride a .gpx file? or what if I want to play a workout file?
Trainer road is not compatible with ANT+ Powerbeam

I have only iphone or Macbook

I use the windows version of TrainerRoad which works fine with ANT+ PowerBeam Pro (zwift also works). TrainerRoad for iOS/Andriod doesn't work though.

Zwift will import .zwo files as a workout. Those can be created from a .gpx course map using bestbikesplit.com

Glad that it worked for you.
Zwift seems to get all of the love these days, but I find VT to be really good, I spent many countless hours sweating along with it over the winter.

Here is a brief video that describes how to import .gpx files into VT,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZT-_osYgN44
the video is a couple of years old and addresses the desktop version, I know that Cycleops is moving away from the desktop version towards the subscription based version, so if this video doesn't end up helping you, I'd suggest just giving Cycleops customer service a quick call, I have always found them to be very helpful.

Above, someone gives a tip on how to convert a gpx file but there is also part of the CVT app download is a route builder. you can lay out any course you want and it will include the grade percents to vary the power required.
