FAQ / Troubleshooting 8. Warranty 10. Packaging contents 1 Preface GB MC 1.0 Thank you very much for buying a VDO MC 1.0 bicycle computer featuring an altimeter. The more familiar you get with this model, the more enjoyable your trips are going to be. Hence, our urgent request: Please read thoroughly all the information provided in this manual. You are getting important and useful hints for operation to make you fully benefit from all the technical features of your VDO MC 1.0. We wish you enjoyable trips and rides on your bike with VDO CYCLE PARTS GMBH Important information about the altimeter The altitude calculation works by measuring barometric pressure. Your VDO MC 1.0 converts the data of current barometric pressure into the respective altitude. Depending on the barometric pressure (weather) different altitude readouts for the same location may be displayed. That these barometric changes do not reflect in your altitude readout, your VDO MC 1.0 features an easy-to use barometric pressure re-calibration (see chapter 6.1.3) Accurate calculation of altitude requires the precise determination of home or basis altitude. To process barometric pressure data, there is a hole drilled into the bottom of the housing of your VDO MC 1.0. This hole must never be clogged or taped over. Please do check on its cleanliness regularly and free the hole carefully if needed. You must never poke a pointed instrument into the hole. 2 1.Mounting 1.1 Mounting cable sensor and magnet Important: mount the sensor first, then mount the wired handlebar holder as described under 1.2 Check the following while mounting: a. Distance between the sensor and magnet: 1 to 5 mm b. When mounting the sensor on a suspension fork, don't forget to allow extra length for the cable. WATCH OUT: cable may tear MC 1.0 GB step 1: Loosely attach the sensor on the fork leg with cable ties (do not tighten yet). step 2: Mount the magnet on a spoke. Adjust the magnet to the marking on the sensor (distance 1-5 mm). step 3: When adjustment has been done finalise mounting by tightening cable ties and clamping magnet. P1+P2 1.2 Mounting wire and VDO "any-size" handlebar holder step 1: Run the cable up the fork, pass it around the brake cable from the already fixed sensor to the handlebar. Use the enclosed cable ties or duct tape. Spiral the wire around the brake cable (this has proven to be the best solution). step 2: position the holder on the handlebar. step 3: feed the fixing clamp through the slot below the holder socket, pass the clamp around the handlebar and tighten it with a small screw driver. Do not overtighten, the plastic screw might be damaged. Readjust the cable so that it will not be stretched during steering. Finally tighten the zip ties holding the sensor. P3 3 1.3 Twist-Click mounting of computer on to holder GB MC 1.0 The Twist-Click mounting has been exclusively developed for the new line of VDO CYTEC computers. The VDO MC 1.0 also features the Twist-Click-System. The computerhead is put onto the handlebar and by a right turn of the computerhead (TWIST) fixed to the holder (CLICK). P4 It is just as easy to remove the computerhead from the handlebar holder. Slightly push the computerhead down, twist it to the left, remove computerhead from handlebar holder. P5 Watch out: Please remove the computerhead from the handelbar holder when you intend not to use your bike for a longer period of time. (battery power) 1.4 Installing the 3V battery (type 2032) into the computer head To save battery power, your VDO MC 1.0 comes with the battery not yet fitted. Prior to initial use the batteries will first have to be installed with the positve pole on top. Warning: Once the battery is installed your VDO MC 1.0 starts the set-up of display language (see also chapter 2.4 for details). P6 If you find the computer is not functioning properly after the battery is changed, push the AC-button (Auto Clear) on the rear side of the computer to reset. P7 4 2. Initial set-up of your VDO MC 1.0 VDO MC 1.0 2.1 Basic information on how to operate your VDO MC 1.0 VDO MC 1.0 Make sure you are familiar with the computers basic operating instructions before the initial set-up and use. Your VDO MC 1.0 features 3 keys / buttons Left ...... Center......Right MODE1..... ALTI........ MODE2 The display The following information is permanentely displayed: · Current / actual speed in KMH or MPH accurate to +/- 0.5 KMH / MPH · Symbol (MPH or KMH) for the measuring system selected, · Wheelsize selected: Bike 1 (WS1) or Bike 2 (WS2) · Symbols to compare actual speed and average speed (up-arrow, down-arrow, dot) · ALTI - display of current / actual altitude · Current grade / inclination climbed or descended in % · Current temperature in °C or °F Function TRIP DIST RIDE TIME AVG SPEED STOP WATCH MAX SPEED Function NAVI GATOR CLOCK ODO 1 METER ODO 2 METER ODO TOTAL MC 1.0 GB MODE 1 MODE 2 Function TRIP ALTI MAX ALTI AVG CLIMB MAX CLIMB TOTAL ALTI TOP ELVTN ALTI 5 2.2 Interrogating information GB MC 1.0 With the MODE1 button you call up following information: TRIP DIST - RIDE TIME - AVG SPEED - STOP WATCH - MAX SPEED TRIP DIST trip counter for your individual trip, counting to 999.99 km or mi RIDE TIME trip timer featuring automatic start/stop function up to 19:59:59 h AVG SPEED average speed, accurate to two decimal points STOP WATCH manually operated stop watch counting up to 19:59:59 MAX SPEED maximum speed achieved during a ride up to 199.5 km/h or mph Important: If the ride timer overflows 19:59:59 h, it is automatically reset to 00:00:00. Simultaneously, your average speed counter AVG SPEED is reset to zero. If your trip counter overflows 999.99 KM or M, it is automatically reset to 000.00 Simultaneously, your average speed counter AVG SPEED and your ride timer RIDE TIME are reset to zero. With the MODE2 button you call up following information: NAVI GATOR - CLOCK - ODO1 METER - ODO2 METER - ODO TOTAL NAVI GATOR Second, manual trip counter, can be reset to zero individually, can be preset and counting up from there on. CLOCK Time of the day in 12h or 24h mode ODO 1 METER Odometer (sum of all trips) on Bike 1, up to 99.999 km or mi. ODO 2 METER Odometer (sum of all trips) on Bike 2, up to 99.999 km or mi. ODO TOTAL Odometer (sum of all trips on both bikes), sum of Bike 1 and Bike 2, up to 199.999 km or mi. Important: Switching conversions from mi to km at odometer 62.111 mi and up leads to a reset to zero of the odometer. (62.111 mi converts to approx 100.000 km but the display only holds 99.999 km max.) With the ALTI button you call up following information: TRIP ALTI - MAX ALTI - AVG CLIMB - MAX CLIMB - TOTAL ALTI - TOP ELVTN TRIP ALTI Indicaton of altitute gained / elevation climbed during the current trip as long as speed impulses are processed. Descended altitude is not counted. MAX ALTI Indication of highest elevation reached during the current trip. AVG CLIMB Indication of average inclination (in %) during the currrent trip. MAX CLIMB Indication of maximum inclination (in %) during the current trip. TOTAL ALTI Indication of total altitude climbed on all your trips for both wheelsizes WS1 + WS2 TOP ELVTN Indication of highest elevation reached for all your trips for both wheelsizes WS1 + WS2 6 2.3 Calling up set-up modes for computer / speedometer functions Other than calling up various functions and informations, the MODE 1 key calls up any set-up mode.
