INSTRUCTION MANUAL

1.1.GENERAL

1.2.IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE DIGITAL WIRELESS SYSTEM

Your VDO series Z3 works entirely without cable; it works with triple digital wireless transmission based on well-established ANT+Sport® wireless protocol. The ANT+Sport® wireless protocol has already been successfully implemented by manufacturers such as Garmin, Specialized, and Suunto. Speed signals, cadence signals (optional), as well as heart rate data are transmitted to the respective receiver (computer) as digital and coded signals. Signal coding ensures that only the data of your own pulse, speed, and cadence (optional) transmitters are processed (this is advantageous when riding in a group).

The ANT+Sport digital technology is significantly more reliable than the technology of older analog systems. The ANT+Sport technology uses standard industrial wireless components, and it can best be compared to the technology used in modern WLAN networks. The connection between transmitter and receiver is more stable, and subject to significantly less frequent malfunction, and it is virtually completely safeguarded from data loss.

The speed transmitter has a memory component that buffers data every 65 sec. Thus no data is lost if there is a malfunction lasting for this duration.After the malfunction this data will be resent to the computer. Subsequently the following data will be updated:

Daily distance

Ride time

Average speed

Navigator

Total distance

Total ride time

After a malfunction the data can change suddenly = updating the computer. Initial operation of a completely digital system requires somewhat more care than does initial operation of conventional analog systems. The first time batteries are inserted, or after a battery change, the transmitter automatically generates a new code. The computer has to learn this code. To do this you must execute a DIG CONNECT SET. Strictly follow the instructions in chapter 3.3 to do this.

ATTENTION: Your VDO computer is not suitable for use on motorcycles.

1.3. CONTROL SYSTEM - OPERATION

The control system of your computer is based on dual assignment of the 4 main buttons. In this regard the devices distinguishes between operation mode and setting mode.
