SETUP MODE & PROGRAMMING INTRODUCTION After battery installation, the master screen will appear briefly and the computer will automatically go into the Initial Setup program mode. Note: To enter Setup when in the Normal Operating Mode (NOM), go to the SPD/DST screen mode and press Buttons #1 and #2 simultaneously for 2 seconds with the RT/TT timers off. Exit NOM Setup by pressing Button #3. The Setup mode allows the rider to select operational units and values for the computer function displays.
WHEEL SIZE CALCULATION The circumference of the wheel is measured and entered in millimeters. Bike I and II wheel sizes are set independently, and both default to 2074mm (700c x 20 or 26 x 2.0). The following chart lists the circumference measurements for the most common wheel sizes. To use this chart, find your tire size and record the corresponding circumference measurement.
SETUP: WHEEL CIRCUMFERENCE After the bike number is selected and the display advances to the Wheel Size Setup screen, “circ” appears in small letters on the lower level and the default numbers 2074 appear on the upper level with the right digit “4” flashing. Step 1: To enter a specific wheel size, press Button #2 to advance the flashing digit to the desired number. Step 2: When the correct number is reached, select it by pressing Button #1. The next digit to the left will start flashing.
SETUP: SERVICE TIMER The Service Timers, one for each bike, may be programmed with a select number of ride time hours as the interval for servicing the bicycle or any component on it, such as a front or rear shock. Accumulated Ride Time is displayed on the upper line and the Service Time interval is set and displayed on the lower line. In the Service Timer mode, the hour digits appear on the lower level with the right hand digit flashing.
• To stop the Service Timer icon from flashing: A) Reset the accumulated Ride Time hours (upper line) to zero “0” through the NOM Setup sequence. The Service Timer interval may also be reprogrammed at this point. B) Change TT setting to a number larger than accumulated RT. C) Set TT to zero “0000” (disable the Service Timer). • The Service Timer option can be disabled in Initial or NOM Setup mode by entering and selecting a value of zero “0000” hours as the service time interval (lower line).
SETUP: TEMPERATURE UNITS A highlighted thermometer icon indicates that the computer is in the Temperature Setup screen mode. The flashing “F” indicates Fahrenheit. To choose temperature readings that are displayed in the Fahrenheit scale, press Button #1 to select it and advance. To select the Celsius scale, press Button #2 to scroll to a flashing “C". Then press Button #1 to select and advance. SETUP: CLOCK The V100 clock displays time in either a 12 or 24 hour format.
SETUP: ODOMETER Bike I and Bike II have separate odometers. On a new computer the Odometer screen should read “00000” for both. To confirm this initial zero setting, simply press Button #1 successively to select each flashing digit and advance to System Check. To reenter mileage achieved after a battery change, follow these steps: Step 1: When the far right digit begins to flash, press Button #2 to scroll to the desired number.
Note: System Check is activated in two ways: 1) By pressing Button #3 any time during NOM Setup and 2) Automatically at the end of either Initial or NOM Setup. To exit NOM System Check manually and enter Normal Operating Mode, press Button #3 to return to the SPD/DST primary screen mode.
