Classic Line cablekit
For connecting the wires with the blade connectors
insert each wire (without stripping) of the Sx2 Tuning-
Dongle cable into the one-sided openings of the blade
connectors (2).
The related wires of the speedsensor and the + wire
of the control unit Intuvia (6) are inserted into the
through-opening of the blade connectors. Now press
down with your hand the blade connectors (2) firmly.
Compress with a pliers as possible parallel.
Once the terminals are crimped, the speedsensor plug
(1) should be reconnected to the engine and the chain
applied to the chain wheel.
Now the pedal has to be turned up slowly by hand and
the speedometer should be checked for function. If the
speed is shown on the display repeat the procedure
with a plugged Sx2 Tuning-Dongle into stereo jack so
-
cket (5). Until the switch point is reached, the shown
speed jumps to the half speed.
After that, assemble the hood and the e-bike together.
The cablekit should be mounted in a way to protect
the connectors from splashing water and mechanical
damage.

connected cablekit.
FAQ
(further Help you can find at support.maintronic.de)
I have done the installation exactly like shown, but the
switchoverpoint is not perceptible?
ANSWER
:
Distance and Position of the magnet affecting the
switching time of the speed sensor. The shorter the
switching time, the sooner is the switchoverpoint and
conversely. Try to turn up the pedal by hand while the
engine is turned off till 50km/h and watch the speedo
-
meter.
If the switchoverpoint is below 12km/h or over 28km/h
or not at all please contact your specialist dealer or the
Sx2 Support >>> [email protected]
How can I influence the switchoverpoint?
ANSWER
:
If the speed sensor with the magnet is moved into the
axis direction, the switching speed increase.
Conversely the speed sensor with the magnet is moved
outside to the tire direction, the switching time is shor
-
ter and the switching speed is lower.
