8. Once the wire is connected, turn your ignition key to on and check to make sure the
in
View
TM
power LED is illuminated when the motorcycle is on.
Note:
Once the motorcycle unit is powered, you can connect to the iOS or Android
app and test proper connectivity. See application instructions on our support page.
Once the MC unit is powered on, connect to the iOS or Android app and connect to
inView_Motorcycle. Once connected, go to Setup Motorcycle from the main menu.
There, you will see a virtual LED illuminate to indicate a proper power/ground
connection. A virtual LED will illuminate each time a signal is seen from a directional
or brake. When the unit initially powers on, it will perform self-diagnostics and all MC
unit LEDs will flash).
9. Test to make sure that each motorcycle transceiver LED glows when brake, left directional
and right directional are activated. The power LED should remain on whenever the unit
is connected, and power is supplied.
10. Make sure you have proper clearances before reinstalling any covers or seats. Replace
any parts of the motorcycle that were removed.
Installation Tip:
If any of the wires need to be extended, be sure to use equivalent
gauge or heavier automotive grade wire. If you are running wire and must go through
the frame or any other metal parts, make sure to protect the wire by using a grommet or electrical tape.
II. Part Two: Mounting and Connecting the Accessory Brake Light
Required Components:
•
(1) Accessory brake light
•
(1) Double sided mounting tape
•
(1) Alcohol prep pad
•
(2) Posi-Lock
TM
connectors
•
Required tools to run the accessory brake light
wires to the motorcycle transceiver box.
NOTE:
This an important step! With
in
View
TM
’s accelerometer (engine braking) feature, it is important to have a physical
motorcycle brake light that comes on with the
in
View
TM
helmet light to ensure following motorists see the relationship
between the
in
View
TM
helmet light and a brake light. This is the only DOT recommended way to provide passive braking
signaling!
Before beginning the installation, take a look at the accessory brake light included with the
in
View
TM
system. This light is
mounted with the enclosed 3M
TM
double-sided tape. From the back of the motorcycle, locate a suitable flat area, close to
the motorcycle tail light, parallel to the ground to mount the light. The best locations are typically above or below the existing
tail light. Once mounted, the light must face directly backwards and should not be angled up or down. The accessory brake
light functions when the
in
View
TM
motorcycle transceiver senses deceleration and sends a signal simultaneously to the
accessory brake light
and
helmet light. This ensures following motorists see (and understand) the relationship between the
helmet light and the motorcycle accessory brake light
1. After identifying a suitable location, determine a clear path to route the wires to connect them to the 12V Power Out
wires from the transceiver unit installed in the motorcycle.
2. Connect the accessory brake light to the motorcycle transceiver
’s 12V Power Out wires using the Posi-Lock
TM
connectors.
3. Secure the wires with the enclosed tie-wraps or electrical tape as necessary.
