Attaching the speed transmitter
The transmitter can be attached to the fork leg on the right
or left.
Note:
If you have attached the computer to the stem or the
left of the handlebars, the speed transmitter MUST be
attached to the LEFT fork leg.
STEP 1
Place the rubber shim under the transmitter. Fit the
transmitter on the same side of the forks where you later
want to fit the computer to the handlebars (right or left)
using the cable ties supplied (loosely at first, do not pull
tight just yet).
ATTENTION:
The cross-hatched marking on the lid of
the transmitter‘s battery compartment must point
toward the spokes.
Depending on the available space, the transmitter can be
mounted along the front of the fork, on the inside of the fork,
or the back of the fork.
STEP 2
Place the spoke magnet around an outside spoke. The VDO
logo of the rod-shaped magnet core should point toward the
transmitter. Align the magnet with the cross-hatched sensor
marking on the transmitter at a distance of 1- 5 mm.
STEP 3
Align the transmitter and magnet in their final positions and
fasten them in place:
pull the cable ties tight and push the magnet in firmly.
The transmitter should be folded down at a maximum angle
of 45° to the spokes. If you cannot achieve this angle, move
the transmitter down along the fork leg towards the hub until
you have reduced the angle to less than 45°.
