    The Vetta two button feature allows easy pro- gramming and operation. The V-80 model offers seven functions for the cycling enthusiast, includ- ing readouts on elapsed time, average and maximum speed, and trip distance.
  • Page 3: Function List

    FUNCTION LIST SPEEDOMETER (SPD) (Mi/hr or Km/hr) Tells you your current speed on the upper line of the display screen at all times. CUMULATIVE ODOMETER (ODO) Tells you your cumulative distance until you perform an all clear total reset, the battery is changed, or the unit passes 9999.9 mi.
  • Page 4 when the wheel is set into motion and stops when the wheel stops for over four seconds. When one hour of riding time has elapsed, the clock display will automatically display the time as hours and minutes. When ten hours of rid- ing time have elapsed, the clock will return to 0:00.

    AUTO POWER SAVING MODE (AUTO START-STOP) As a battery saving device, Vetta computers will automatically shut down after 10 minutes of non-use. Your V-80 or V-80C will automatically restart itself as soon as the unit receives input from the wheel.

  • Page 8: Battery Installation

    BATTERY INSTALLATION The V-80 and V-80C computers use a common LR44 1.5v button cell battery. Replacement batteries are available at most camera shops and from your Vetta retailer. Under normal usage a battery should last approximately one year. NOTE: Most problems that occur with cycle computers are caused by dead or weak bat- teries.

    WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS CAUTION Vetta encourages you to ride safely. Wear a helmet every time you ride, use front and rear lights at night, and always keep your eyes on the road ahead of you. CAUTION Vetta cycle computers are sophisticated electronic instruments. Vetta recommends that this product be installed only by a qualified bicycle retailer.
  • Page 10 PROGRAMMING THE COMPUTER HEAD Now that you are familiar with the features of your Vetta V-80 or V-80C cycle computer, you are ready to begin programming the unit specifically for your bike. Take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the buttons and their functions before you proceed to program the unit.
  • Page 11 SETTING MILES/HOUR OR KILOMETERS/HOUR (V-80C) After the battery is installed, all of the displays will be illuminated. Km/hr will then appear on the screen. STEP 1 Press the “MODE” button to switch between miles and kilometers. STEP 2 When your selection has been made, press the “SET” button to confirm your selection and move to the wheel circumference selection mode.
  • Page 12 DETERMINING YOUR CORRECT WHEEL SIZE Vetta cycle computers are programmed using the circumference of the wheel measured in millimeters. Note that while your computer can be programmed to +/- 1mm for total accuracy, discrepancies of as much as 50mm or more will not have a significant effect on the accuracy of the unit for most normal rides.
  • Page 13 WHEEL SIZE CALCULATION If the wheel size of your bike is not listed in the chart, follow these simple steps to calculate the wheel circumference number for your bike. STEP 1 Measure the distance from the center of the front axle to the ground in millimeters. If you are measuring in inches, simply multiply the number of inches by 25.4 to get millimeters.
  • Page 14 PROGRAMMING YOUR WHEEL SIZE (V-80) Once you select miles or kilometers and press the “SET” button, the V-80 will automatically advance into the wheel size setting mode. (See SETTING MILES/HOUR OR KILOMETERS/HOUR) STEP 1 The default wheel size setting of 2155 (700 x 32c) will appear on the screen with the first digit flashing.

  • Page 20 STEP 1 Mount the Vetta universal sensor loosely (so that you can slide it around) to the fork blade using the zip-tie provided. The sensor can be mounted at any point along the fork. However, we recommend a position on the back side near the top of the left fork blade.
  • Page 21 STEP 3 Route the sensor wire up the back of the fork, securing it with electrical tape. STEP 4 Carefully wrap any excess sensor wire around the front brake cable housing, securing with electrical tape when necessary. When you are finished, you should have just enough slack for the computer mounting bracket to attach to the handlebar.
  • Page 22 CADENCE SENSOR AND MAGNET INSTALLATION (V-80C only) STEP 1 Mount the cadence sensor to the outside of the non-driveside left chainstay. The sen- sor should be mounted facing the crank arm. STEP 2 Mount the magnet on the crank arm using the supplied zip-ties. Make sure that the magnet on the crank and the sensor on the chainstay are 1 to 2mm apart.
  • Page 23 HANDLEBAR BRACKET AND HEAD UNIT INSTALLATION STEP 1 Attach the computer mounting bracket to the mounting band by sliding the disc on the top of the mounting band into the slot provided on the bracket until it snaps into place. STEP 2 Cut the plastic screw from the mounting band and place the mounting band on the handlebar/stem with the mounting bracket facing up.
  • Page 24 STEP 5 Cut off the excess band. CAUTION Do not over tighten the mounting band as this may result in breakage (stripped screw or mounting band). The mounting band only needs to be tightened enough to keep it from rotating on the handlebar/stem during normal riding.
