New PowerTap Pro set up question

 Hey all you Power Pros....I just recieved my new PowerTap set up from Wheelbuilder (on bike now)...I have a Garmin 310xt...and the garmin has detected the PowerTap...In fact I rode it briefly yesterday and rode a Sprint Tri today....The question I have is ...

I rode the sprint pretty hard (not all out)...but I rode 23mph for the 20.5mi leg...and my avg. Power was 208 (Normalized was 211)...this is my first true ride with Power but seems low compared to the Power numbers I was getting from TrainerRaod...

Now...I am not trying to compare the two...I just want to know...did I need to do any Calibration/Zeroing of the Garmin/Powertap setup before my first ride? and if so...How do you do it?

 

Thanks!
