B. INSTALLATIONS
BRACKET AND MAIN UNIT MOUNTING
1. Attach the bracket to the handlebar and fit the rubber pad between the handlebar and the band of
the bracket. Tighten the screw securely till the bracket cannot turn. (Fig. A)
2. Slide the main unit onto the bracket from front to rear till it clicks into position. To remove the main unit,
press down on the lock lever of the bracket then pull the main unit forward and off. (Fig. B)
SENSOR AND MAGNET MOUNTING
1. Install the sensor and the sensor band with the screw . (Fig. C)
11 17
2. Mount the band carrier 12 onto sensor band. (Fig. C)
3. Mounting the sensor unit on the right front fork with rubber pad. (Fig. D)
4. Mount the magnet on one spoke of the front wheel and let the magnet face the sensor's mark line
14
. Place the ring around the magnet to enhance the reliability of the fixed screw. (Fig. G)
13
5. Adjust the relative position between the main unit and the sensor, according to the following key points:
a). It will receive a stronger wireless signal if the sensor is more close to the main unit.
The arrow of the sensor must point to the main unit, and install the sensor as close to the main unit
as possible and within 45 cm (1.5 feet) to get a better wireless performance. (Fig. F)
It is workable when the arrow symbol is down (Fig. E), but keeping the arrow up is better because its
sensing distance is shorter than with the arrow down.
b). Adjust the installation angle of the sensor to aim at the direction of the main unit within +/- 15°, the
best performances is at vertical direction (90°) between the sensor's arrow and the battery cap of the
main unit. (Fig. F)
c). Adjust the magnet fixed position to let the center of the magnet align to the sensor's marking line. (Fig. G)
d). Adjust the sensor to let the gap between the magnet and the sensor's marking line is about 5mm (0.2"). (Fig.
H)
6. Refer to the TEST section to testing the installation before tighten the sensor band with a screwdriver.(Fig. I)
7. Fix the excess sensor band by thrusting it into the band carrier

English
TEST
1. The main unit has a "Slide On/Off Detecting Switch " (patents pending) to turn ON/OFF the power of
the wireless receiver. It can receive the wireless wheel signal only after the main unit is slid onto the
bracket.
2. Spin the front wheel to check if installation is correct. Installation is correct if the main unit flickers "
symbol. It is an incorrect installation if there is no symbol of "
among the main unit, the sensor and the magnet, or refer to the trouble-shooting table.
C. THE WIRELESS SYSTEM AND PERFORMANCES
1. The sensor transits the wheel rotating signal to the receiver in the main unit by the wireless transmission.
To prevent the receiver from interfering by other wireless noises and causing the main unit to display false
data, install the transmitter according to the following key points to get better performance.
a). The receiver is designed to receive a signal with only a certain direction and angle to reduce the noise
interference from other sources. Adjust the installation angle of transmitter to aim at the direction to
the main unit within a +/- 15° angle, the best performance is at a vertical direction.
b). The receiver will receive a stronger wireless signal if the transmitter is more close to the receiver. A
stronger sensing signal not only has better noise immunity, but also increases the transmitter battery's
operating life. For good wireless performance, please install the transmitter as close to the main unit
as possible and within 45 cm (1.5 feet).
2. Precaution
a). This computer has almost no cross-talking interference when 2 bicycles carrying the same or similar
wireless cycle computers are ridden side by side, as long as the cross-distance is over 40cm (15.8").
b). This computer has excellent noise immunity for some electromagnetic interference, but it may be interfered
with by a strong electromagnetic wave and make the main unit displays error data while it is near strong
interference such as TV transmission stations, radar stations, and some heavy industrial machines.
3. This computer has a "Slide On/Off Detecting Switch" to check the main unit to slide on/off from the bracket.
a). To reduce the power consumption of the main unit to increase the battery operation life, but also to
delete all indoor electromagnetic interference from electrical equipment (such as PC monitors,
handy-phones, etc.). It will turn off the power supply of the receiver when the main unit takes off from the
bracket.
b). The main unit can only receive the wheel signal after it is slid onto the bracket.
D. FUNCTIONS and SPECIFICATIONS

: Current Speed
1. The current speed is always displayed on the upper display when riding. It displays current speed up to
199.9 KM/h or 120.0 M/h (for wheel diameters of over 24 inches).
2. When riding is stopped, the speed will continue to count 4 seconds for Bike 1 and count 2 seconds for
Bike2 to confirm that no more wheel signals have been sent.
