Dqs - Accessory - Ducati MULTISTRADA 950 Owner's Manual

DQS - accessory

DQS function is an option.
If DQS is installed on the motorcycle, the instrument
panel displays DQS status as follows:
- if DQS system is enabled, the indication to
engage the gears "DQS – UP/DW" is displayed;
- if DQS system is in reduced performance mode,
the indication to engage the gears "DQS –
UP/DW" is displayed flashing;
- if DQS system is disabled, "DQS –" is displayed;
- if the DQS system or the control unit is in fault,
the "DQS –" indication is displayed flashing.
The DQS with up/down feature allows the rider to
upshift and downshift without using the clutch lever.
It includes a two-way microswitch - built in the lever
mechanism - that outputs a signal to the engine
control unit whenever the gearshift is operated.
The system works in a different way when upshifting
and downshifting.
Here below are some tips that will ensure you
properly exploit this feature:
1) The Ducati Quick Shift takes the same shift lever
operation as with vehicle not equipped with the
Ducati Quick Shift. Ducati Quick Shift is not
designed for shifting automatically.
