The add-e NE
X
T retrofit system is equipped with specially designed sensors. The
advantage of the wireless sensors is not just that they are much easier to install,
but also that the measured values are transmitted continuously and independently
of the rotation speed. Therefore the add-e NE
X
T sensors provide optimum motor
control at any speed.
The add-e NE
X
T retrofit system features a PAS sensor (P) and a speed sensor (S),
which are pre-programmed with the corresponding drive unit on delivery and are de-
tected automatically. The battery is already inserted when the sensors are delivered.
4.2 How the add-e NE
X
T sensors work
The sensors of the add-e NE
X
T retrofit system react to motion. If the bike is not mo-
ved, the sensors automatically go into standby after approx. 1 min. This means that
there is no wireless communication between the drive unit and the sensors. If the
bike is moved, the sensors automatically "wake up" and send their data to the drive
unit, even if the drive unit is not being actively used.
The PAS sensor (P) attached to the crank detects the cadence and the speed sen-
sor (S) attached to the rear wheel hub detects the speed. The data collected during
the ride is transmitted to the drive unit in real time over the integrated Bluetooth
interface and facilitates precise motor control.

PLEASE NOTE!
As soon as the sensors are active, the amount of power required
increases. This is also the case when the bike is transported, e.g. in
a car, train, caravan, etc.
