2. Principles of Operation
The System consists of an Airbag Electronic Control Unit (with built-in sensors) integrated
into the back protector, (Figure 1). The cluster of sensors consists of 3 accelerometers
and 3 gyroscopes. These six sensors monitor the user’s body for shocks or unexpected
movements. In the event the user’s body is subject to a high and/or sudden amount of
energy, the System will deploy. This may occur when the motorcycle is involved in an
accident, such as when the motorcycle collides with another vehicle or object, when the
rider loses control or when the rider falls off the motorcycle.
The System is equipped with a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) device located in the electronic
control unit. The BLE allows the System to connect directly to a mobile phone in order to
receive important information from the System, while also permitting the users to access
a number of other functions (for further information see “Tech-Air
®
App” in Section 17).
3. Tech-Air
®
Envelope of Protection
In general, there are three basic factors that determine whether an airbag system will
provide protection to a user:
• Whether the forces experienced by the user during an event (such as an accident) occur
within an area covered by the airbag; and
• Whether the airbag deploys before the user collides with a vehicle, an obstacle or the
ground.
• Whether the airbag deploys before the user collides with parts or accessories of his/her
own motorcycle. For example, mirrors, windscreens or tank bags.
To provide protection to a user, an airbag system must be fully deployed. The deployment
time consists of the time for the sensors to detect the dangerous event, plus the time it
takes to fill the airbag fully with gas, which, for the System is about 40 milliseconds (ms)
maximum. The time to deploy the airbag depends on the type of accident, the type of
motorcycle (e.g. scooter, custom, sports) and the speed involved, amongst other things.

To connect the System to the mobile phone via Bluetooth, remember to
activate the Bluetooth module within your phone and to download the Tech-
Air
®
App available at Android Play Store or at Apple Store.
User must always ensure via the App that the System is running the most up
to date software release.
When the System is in Race Mode it stays active and ready to deploy
when riding at 100km/h and above. Should User stop or reduce the
speed under 100km/h for an extended period of time, the System
will reperform the System Check so it will not activate in case of an
accident.
RACE MODE: Tech-Air
®
5 System comes with two different algorithms that permit
the use of the System on both streets and light off-road paths (the “Street
Mode”) and race tracks (the “Race Mode”). User can easily switch between these
two modes by using the Tech-Air
®
App.
System must be used in Street Mode when riding outside race tracks,
as Street Mode operation differs from Race Mode and vice versa.
