not depend on the support level setting on the display! The adjustable maximum value depends on
the battery of the BEN-E-BIKE (20 km/h for all TWENTYFOUR models and 25 km/h for the TWENTYSIX)
and is adjusted automatically as soon as the software recognizes the battery type. To do this, the
button "Read Controller" must be pressed once.
Driver weight
Set the weight of your child with clothing (and luggage) - the software automatically defines the
maximum possible engine power accordingly. Especially if your child is particularly lightweight, it
makes sense to limit the maximum engine power. However, the setting only gives a guideline value
based on experience - the optimal setting should therefore be determined empirically.
Assistance level 1 - 5
Based on the maximum engine power set via the "Driver weight", the motor power for each assistance
level can be changed individually. By default, we have chosen the following settings for the small
175Wh battery: 20% - 40% - 60% - 80% - 100%. The larger 250Wh battery comes with the following
pre-defined settings: 15% - 30% - 50% - 75% - 100%. Within certain limits, these specifications can be
adapted to the personal needs.
Motor acceleration
Here you can define whether the engine should deliver its power more gently or equally powerful.
Especially for light children, who still have little driving experience, it may be useful to choose a gentle
power output.
Motor stop lag
This parameter defines how long the engine will run after the pedal has come to a stop. The setting
"short" corresponds to a lag of 0.25 sec., "long" corresponds to a lag of approx. 0.45 sec.
PAS sensor sensitivity
The BEN-E-BIKE is equipped with a 12-pole pedal sensor. This parameter determines how many poles
the sensor must "sweep" until the motor responds to the movement of the pedal.
Walk-assist speed
Here you can define the speed of the walk-assist speed. Experience has shown that the typical value
of 6 km / h, which has become standard for e-bikes, is sometimes too fast for children. "4 km / h" has
proven to be the best value for most purposes.
