V100 PRIMARY FUNCTIONS UPPER SCREEN MODES SPEED TRIP DISTANCE SPD displays the current Speed and is updated continuously. DST displays current Trip Distance. Automatically resets after the maximum trip distance (999.9) is achieved. Trip Distance is displayed in the SPD/DST screen mode and starts automatically when the wheel rotates and TT timer is active.
Note: Whenever TT is activated, the stopwatch icon appears; otherwise, it does not display. CAUTION : If RT and T T timers are not 0:00:00 and you have stopped them manually, then they MUST be restarted manually by pressing Button #3 in RT/TT mode. If not, the computer will not record speed or other ride data.
LOWER SCREEN MODES CLOCK ODOMETER The time is displayed in the CLK/ODO screen mode and features a user selectable 12 or 24 hour format. Odometer displays cumu-lative distance until an All Clear Total Reset is performed, the battery is changed*, or the ride distance exceeds the maximum limit, after which the Odometer will automatically reset to zero.
Stopwatch and IDS to zero by pressing Button #3 for 2 seconds. DUAL BIKE MEMORY The V100 can be calibrated for two bicycles. It will store separate Wheel Size and Service Timer settings, Odometer settings and formats selected for Time, Temperature, Speed and Distance.
Suspension forks, rear shocks, chains, etc. require service at specific time intervals set by manufacturers. Vetta’s Service Timer allows the rider to preset an exact number of riding hours during Setup, then signals (slow, flashing wrench icon) when the service time limit has been reached.

MOUNTING BRACKET Head Unit Wired Mounting Bracket Zip Tie Mounting Pad Handlebar Fig. 6 Step 1: Install mounting pad and wired mounting bracket to the handlebar using the 2 zip ties provided. (Fig. 6) Step 2: Tighten the zip ties so that the mounting bracket holds its position on the bars yet can be easily adjusted.
Zip Tie Handlebar HEAD UNIT The V100 head unit is designed to slide into the mounting bracket from the front to the back and lock into position. You should hear an audible “CLICK” when the head unit has been properly locked into position. This indicates proper alignment between the computer head pins and the mounting bracket contacts.
NOTE: WL2X Double wireless Speed & Cadence is optional. Please refer to WIRED SPEED AND CADENCE/WL2X DOUBLE The V100 is designed to operate as a wireless unit with the installation of a special active mount and WL wireless speed transmitter.
