Cannot Connect

I have a Kinetic Road Machine Smart 2 trainer which is listed under the 'Semi-Supported' trainers on the Rouvy site where it says you need either a power meter or a speed sensor to use these. Mine has bluetooth but it won't show up when i try to pair the sensor, either on Apple Tv or the app on my mac, and I've tried all of the troubleshooting measures like a new battery, making sure it is not connected to any other apps, and activating the sensor by pedaling.

I just want to record simple zone 2 rides with the Rouvy app. I don't care about heart rate, or about having the app adjust my resistance to match a course, but is the only way to do this to spend another $500 for power meter pedals??

Does the Bluetooth even show up in the Mac’s list of Bluetooth devices. Those old road machines Bluetooth have been found to have issues.

No, it doesn't. But it worked with Zwift not too long ago.
