TROUBLE SHOOTING

BATTERY INSTALLATION

Computer - (Note: Battery is pre-installed) Remove the

battery cover from the bottom of the computer using a small

coin. Install the 3V battery with positive (+) pole facing the

cover (Figure 1a). If the LCD shows irregular figures, take out

the battery and install again. This will clear and restart the

computer's microprocessor.

MOUNTING BRACKET INSTALLATION

Attach the mounting bracket to the right side of the handlebar

with the LARGE cable ties (Figure 3a and 3b). Make sure the

mounting bracket is clamped tightly and will not slip on the

handlebar. Slide the computer onto the mounting bracket until

it snaps firmly into position. Press the release button to

remove the computer (Figure 3c).

SPEEDOMETER (SPD): Instantaneous Speed is displayed on

the first row. The range of measurement is from 0 to 99KM/hr

(0 to 99M/hr) and accuracy is + /-0.5KM/hr (M/hr).

SPEED TENDENCY : An "up arrow" or "down arrow" icon

appears on the first row to the left of the current speed. An up

arrow indicates you are accelerating. A down arrow indicates

you are decelerating.

AVERAGE SPEED (AVS): AVS is displayed on the second

row. AVS is calculated by dividing TM by DST. To reset AVS,

go to the AVS screen then press and hold the LEFT button for

2 seconds. NOTE: TM and DST will also be reset to zero

MAXIMUM SPEED (MXS): Maximum Speed (MXS) is

displayed on the second row. Maximum speed is stored in

memory and updates only when a higher speed is reached. To

reset MXS to zero, go to MXS screen then press and hold the

LEFT button for 2 seconds.

SPEED COMPARATOR: A "+" or "-" sign appears on the

second line, to the right of the SPD icon. A "+" indicates you

are traveling faster than your average speed (AVS). A "-"

indicates you are riding slower than your average speed.

TRIPOMETER (DST): Trip distance (DST) is displayed on the

third row. DST is accumulated automatically with speedometer

input. To reset DST to zero, go to DST screen (SCAN OFF),

press and hold the LEFT button for 2 seconds. NOTE: TM and

AVS will also be reset to zero.

CLOCK (CLK): A 12/24 hour clock is displayed on the third

row. To adjust CLK, ODO and WS see bottom section on page

7.

TRIP TIMER (TM): Trip Timer (TM) is displayed on the bottom

row. Trip Timer is activated automatically with speedometer

input (when the wheels are turning). It records only the time

spent actually riding. To reset TM to zero, go to TM screen

(SCAN OFF), press and hold the LEFT button for 2 seconds.

NOTE: DST and AVS will also be reset.

ODOMETER (ODO): Total distance traveled (ODO) is

displayed on the bottom row. To adjust CLK, ODO and WS see

bottom section on page 7

RESET: See top section on page 7.

AUTO START/STOP: The computer will start automatically

when your wheels start rotating. In order to conserve the

battery the computer will turn off automatically after 5 minutes.

WHEEL SIZE (WS): Before you

program your computer you need to

determine your Wheel Size (WS). WS

is the circumference of the front

wheel in mm. This value is entered

into the computer in order to calculate

speed and distance.

While charts provide a quick and easy

way to get WS, there are no standard

wheel sizes in the cycling world - i.e.

the circumference (or Wheel Size =

WS) of a 700x23 tire will differ from

one brand of tire to another - so for

accurate speed and distance values

on your computer you need to

measure your wheel circumference.

To obtain WS:

Method 1: Fast (and not so accurate)

method - use chart provided.

Method 2: Most accurate method:

a) See Figure 8.

b) Inflate your tires to its proper

pressure.

c) Put a mark on your front wheel on the outside

circumference.

d) Put a mark on the floor.

e) Put the mark on the wheel on the mark on the floor.

f) Rotate the wheel one full revolution until the mark on the

wheel is on the floor again. Mark this location.

g) Measure the distance between the marks on the floor in

mm. This is the wheel size (WS) (i.e. your wheel

circumference in mm).

h) Write this number down. The value should be between

1800 and 2200 mm. The unit can accommodate WS values

between 100 and 5999 mm.

a) Install the mounting bracket as per page 5

b) See Figure 2a for routing of sensors wire.

c) Make sure that there is enough wire clearance so the

handlebars can rotate fully in both directions without pulling at

the sensor wire.

d) Without using tie wraps - position the sensor on the inside

face of the right fork and the magnet on a wheel spoke.

Position the sensor and magnet in such a way so that the

magnet passes over the circle arrow on the sensor as shown

in Figures 2c, 2e and 2f.

e) Once you have determined the approximate position of the

sensor and magnet - loosely put LARGE cable ties on the

sensor and attach the magnet to the correct spoke. See

Figures 2d and 2e on how to attach the spoke magnet. The

magnet should be maximum 2mm from the sensor.

f) Test out the positioning of the sensor and magnet by

rotating the front wheel to see if the computer registers a

speed value. If no value is registered reposition the sensor

and magnet again. Make sure the magnet passes over circle

arrow on the speed sensor as shown in Figure 2f. Once you

have positioned the magnet and sensor properly, tighten up

the sensor cable ties and ensure the magnet is securely

tightened.

g) Secure the rest of the wire securely to the frame of your

bicycle with the SMALL cable ties. Make sure that there are

no dangling wires.
