1.2 IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE DIGITAL WIRELESS SYSTEM

Your VDO Z2 PC-Link works entirely without cable; it works with triple digital wireless transmission based on well-established ANT+Sport® wireless protocol. The ANT+Sport® wireless protocol has already been successfully implemented by manufacturers such as Garmin, Specialized, and Suunto. Speed signals, cadence signals (optional), as well as heart rate data are transmitted to the respective receiver (computer) as digital and coded signals. Signal coding ensures that only the data of your own pulse, speed, and cadence (optional) transmitters are processed (this is advantageous when riding in a group).

The ANT+Sport digital technology is significantly more reliable than the technology of older analog systems. The ANT+Sport technology uses standard industrial wireless components, and it can best be compared to the technology used in modern WLAN networks. The connection between transmitter and receiver is more stable, and subject to significantly less frequent malfunction, and it is virtually completely safeguarded from data loss.

The speed transmitter has a memory component that buffers data every 65 sec. Thus no data is lost if there is a malfunction lasting for this duration. After the malfunction this data will be resent to the computer. Subsequently the following data will be updated:

Daily distance

Ride time

Average speed

Navigator

Total distance

Total ride time

After a malfunction the data can change suddenly = updating the computer. Initial operation of a completely digital system requires somewhat more care than does initial operation of conventional analog systems. The first time batteries are inserted, or after a battery change, the transmitter automatically generates a new code. The computer has to learn this code. To do this you must execute a DIG CONNECT SET. Strictly follow the instructions in chapter 3.3 to do this.

ATTENTION: Your VDO computer is not suitable for use on motorcycles.

The control system of your computer is based on dual assignment of the 4 main buttons. In this regard the devices distinguishes between operation mode and setting mode.

EN

2, and the altitude difference walked. Reprogram this information after inserting the new batteries.

2.1.2 BATTERY INSTALLATION PULSE-CHEST BELT >>> P03

Your VDO is shipped with the battery installed in the pulse-chest belt.

Proceed as follows when later inserting a replacement battery:

step 1 Insert the battery into the chest-belt housing with the +pole up.

step 2 Ensure that the battery is not tilted.

step 3 Strictly ensure that the rubber seal lies smoothly on the battery compartment lid.

step 4 Insert the battery compartment lid into the opening and use a coin to firmly turn the battery door to right until the stop (approximately 1/3 turn)

2.2. INSTALLATION - HOLDER/COMPUTER/TRANSMITTER/MAGNET

a. Holder >>> P04/05: Your VDO computer is shipped with a universal handlebar holder.

step 1 You can mount the holder either on the handlebar or the stem. If you are installing the holder on the handlebar decide whether you want it on the right side or the left side. If installing on the stem, loosen the screws in the holder and turn the foot of the holder to stem installation. Then screw the foot firmly onto the holder again.

step 2 Route the cable ties through the provided eyes of the holder foot and pull both of them tight.

b. Computer >>> P06

The VDO twist-click system securely connects the computer to the handlebar holder.

step 1 Insert the computer, turned to the left approximately 45 degrees (10 o'clock position) into the holder.

step 2 Twist the computer to the right until it audibly engages (clicks) in the holder system (12 o'clock position).

step 3 To remove the computer turn it to the left (do not press or pull).

c. Speed transmitter and magnet >>> P07

Mount the transmitter on the same side of the handlebar that the computer is mounted on. If you have installed the holder on the stem then we recommend mounting the transmitter on the left side.

step 1 Loosely fasten the transmitter on the fork with cable ties (do not tighten).

step 2 Place the spoke magnet on a spoke

step 3 Align the spoke magnet to the transmitter marking with a clearance of approximately 3 mm and click it together.

step 4 Align transmitter and magnet relative to each other and tighten the cable tie on the transmitter.

Please pay attention to the maximum distances:

- Maximum transmitter-computer distance = 120 cm

- Transmitter-magnet distance: 3 mm to a maximum of 10 mm

INSTRUCTION MANUAL

2.3. PUTTING ON THE PULSE-CHEST BELT >>> P08

step 1 First connect the one side of the pulse transmitter with the elastic strap, as shown. Press the ends of the pulse-chest belt into the plastic holder of the elastic strap
step 2 Place the pulse transmitter just below your chest and guide the elastic strap over your back to the other end of the pulse transmitter
step 3 Connect the second end of the plastic strap to the pulse transmitter
step 4 Use the size adjustment of the elastic strap to adjust the chest belt to your chest size

Please note:

  • Do not adjust the chest belt too loose; if it is too loose it can slip if there are jolts (e.g. when walking)
  • When putting on the chest belt moisten the electrodes so that trouble-free function is also ensured when starting exercise, before contact is established through sweat.
  • Range of the pulse-chest belt transmitter = 0.90 m

2.4. MOUNTING THE COMPUTER ON THE WRIST BAND>>> P09

step 1 Insert the computer into the opened wrist band

step 2 Insert the lock into the wrist band holder from below

step 3 Turn the lock with a coin to tighten it

ATTENTION: Never use a screwdriver to operate the lock. This could damage the lock (if the lock should be damaged then you can get the lock as original replacement part)

After inserting the batteries we recommend that you first reset the device to factory settings to ensure that no residual data from the quality control process remains in the computer. This puts the computer into an assured start mode.

step 4 M Confirm your language selection with M

3.3. MANUAL PAIRING - INITIAL OPERATION WIRELESS SYSTEM

For initial operation of the digital wireless system manual pairing must ALWAYS be executed. Manual pairing ensures that the computer learns the coding of the transmitter you are using.

step 1 Insert the computer into the twist-click holder
step 2 Ensure that there are no ANT+Sport digital transmitters other than the transmitter you are using within a 5-meter area around the computer

Your computer will randomly select one of 128,000 codes. This ensures that signals of other transmitters are not received or processed (e.g. when riding in a group). If dashes are shown in the display, in spite of pairing, you must repeat the manual pairing process. In doing so

EN

ensure that the electrodes of the pulse transmitter belt are wet, or that the distance between the magnets and the speed/cadence transmitter is not greater than 5 mm.

ATTENTION: Your computer can save the codes of up to 5 transmitters

  1. Speed transmitter of bike 1
  2. Speed transmitter of bike 2
  3. Cadence transmitter of bike 1 (optional)
  4. Cadence transmitter of bike 2 (optional)

IMPORTANT NOTE / Re-open of transmitter search for the receive channel after interruption

If no signal is received from an already paired transmitter after 15 minutes (for example riding without chest belt for Z2 and Z3, also PC-LINK models), the receive channel will be closed for this transmitter.

In this case your VDO computer will show dashes for the respective function in the display. To re-open all receive channels press the 1

and A buttons at the same time: Now your VDO computer will again receive all previously paired transmitters that are in range.

5. BICYCLE FUNCTION SETTINGS

5.1. MEASURING AND SETTING WHEEL SIZE/S

In order for your VDO computer to measure correctly you must first measure the circumference of your wheel. If this value is set incorrectly then all values calculated on the basis of this value, such as speed, trip,

EN

etc. will be wrong. To use your VDO computer on two different bikes e.g. mountain bike and road bike you can enter two different wheel sizes. Measuring the wheel circumference:

step 1 Align the valve of the front wheel so that it is precisely vertical to the ground

step 2 Mark this point on the ground with a line (use chalk for example)

step 3 Push the bike one wheel rotation forward until the valve is again vertical to the ground.

step 4 Mark this point on the ground as well.

step 5 Measure the distance between the two marks. The result is your wheel circumference (=roll circumference).

step 6 Enter the wheel circumference as described below into your VDO computer.

ATTENTION: If you have selected KMH display then you must enter the wheel circumference in mm. If you have selected MPH display then enter the wheel circumference in inches. The values listed in table >>> P10 are approximate values. These values deviate depending on brand of tire, tire height and tire tread.

6. PERSONAL SETTINGS (YOUR DATA)

IMPORTANT NOTE: The personal settings are the prerequisite for calculating maximum pulse, training zones, and calorie consumption. Ensure that you make the personal settings first so that you can fully utilize the possibilities offered by the computer. Your personal maximum pulse is an important value. You can enter this value into your VDO computer

EN

if you know it from earlier measurements (e.g. at the doctor's office or from a performance test). If you do not know it then you can select automatic calculation of your maximum pulse.

WARNING: Automatic calculation is based on average values for people that are athletic and healthy. The actual value can deviate from this average value for people who have not been athletically active for some time, or who after illness, are going through a rehabilitation program. Strictly ensure that you speak with your doctor before starting to train, so that he can confirm that training would not be associated with any adverse effects.

11. RIDING WITH THE NAVIGATOR

With the VDO Navigator you can complete trips according to Roadbooks (e.g. Moser Guide). Roadbooks are offered by many publishing houses for fantastic trips (for road bikes as well as mountain bikes) by many publishing houses. Taking a specified trip is facilitated thanks to the detailed km description of certain orientation points. Note: This function is not available in walk mode.

The VDO Navigator is an independent km or mi counter and works in the following modes:

a. Counting down: To display the distance remaining to the next orientation point
b. Counting up: To display the distance covered since the last orientation point
Note: The Navigator always runs automatically even if you have not set it.

The Navigator km status can be set/changed at any point desired. Thus you can start in the middle of a trip or execute a km correction if you took a wrong turn.

12. THE TIMING FUNCTIONS

The following settings are of particular importance when using the pulse functions (chapter 13).

Your VDO computer has 6 different timing functions. If one of the timing functions is running the TIMING indicator icon will always be flashing in the left part of the display. Moreover the residence times in the training ranges are captured for each running timing function (see chapter Kap. 13). The setting range/measuring range for all timing functions is 0:00:00 h to 24:00:00 h

EN

TIMER 1: You can program a time e.g. for interval training. TIMER 1 counts from zero forward. At the end of TIMER 1 there is a single beep. Timer 1 only functions if you have set a time. If you have forgotten to set a time your VDO computer displays TIMER ERROR

TIMER 2: You can program a time, e.g. for the rest phase in an interval training. TIMER 2 counts from zero forward. At the end of TIMER 2 there are two beeps. Timer 2 only functions if you have set a time. If you have forgotten to set a time your VDO computer displays TIMER ERROR

TIMER 1+2 runs until you stop these functions. Timers 1 + 2 only function if you have set a time. If you have forgotten to set a time your VDO computer displays TIMER ERROR.

COUNTDOWN: You can program a time, the timer will count backwards from this time. At the end of the COUNTDOWN time there is a single beep. Countdown only functions if you have set a time. If you have forgotten to set a time your VDO computer will display COUNTDOWN ERROR.

COUNT ERROR DOWN

LAP TIMER: Start Lap Timer with STU. Start next Lap with P + A at the same time at any point of the training unit. The following values will be saved:

  • Duration of the lap
  • Average heart rate on the lap

- Average speed on the lap

The lap values can be called at any time if time measurement is stopped.

STOPWATCH: With the manual stopwatch you can manually capture the plus values of training units.

12.5. LAP-TIMER

The LAP timer must first be started with the STW button. To save the LAP data press buttons P + A at the same time on the desired points of the training unit. In this process the following values will be saved:

  • Duration of the lap
  • Average heart rate on the lap
  • Average speed on the lap
    The lap values can be called at any time if time measurement is stopped.

12.6. STOPWATCH

Use of the stopwatch does not require any previous setting. After preselect (see chapter 12.1), it can be stopped or started at any time with STM.

13. TRAINING CONTROL WITH THE PULSE FUNCTIONS

See chapter 12. for information on making the settings. For focused training control it is necessary to keep the pulse in certain ranges through specific stress, see chapter 7.2. The different training programs are defined by a low limit and high limit. The pulse range between the two values is usually the target range for your training. After determining the pulse ranges (automatically or manually) your VDO computer records the residency period in the target range as well as the times above and below the target range. For real-time monitoring your VDO computer indicates when you leave the target range via an acoustic signal, if you have set this function beforehand (see chapter 13.1)

13.1. TRAINING WITH THE STOPWATCH

The stopwatch offers the easiest possibility for capturing pulse data. When the stopwatch is running pulse data is recorded. Interruption/continuation of the recording is possible at any time with STW.

step 1 Preparing the recording:

  • Set the training ranges automatically chapter 7.1, or manually chapter 7.2
  • Select training program limit 1, limit 2, limit 3, chapter 7.3

NOTE for DATA RECORDING:

All lap data is also recorded when using DATA RECORDING (chapter 14) and is also transferred to the PC in the data transfer. With the aid of the „PC-Sport“ training software the lap data can then be displayed on the PC.

EN

14. THE DATA RECORDING FUNCTION & TRANSFER OF DATA TO THE PO

Your VDO computer is designed for recording data and transferring data to your PC. The recorded and transferred data can be analyzed on the PC. With the „PC-Sport“ software you can keep a training journal, track developments over certain periods, and specifically plan a program for getting in shape. All necessary elements for this application are included in the scope of delivery of your computer:

  1. Docking station with USB cable for transferring data to the PC
  2. CD-ROM with the PC-Sport training and analysis software

What happens when I record training units?

Your VDO computer generates a file/data record in its memory per training unit (start/stop see below). The following data is captured in this data record (after starting data recording) in a interval (10 / 20 sec.):

  • All bike data (only under certain conditions in walk mode)
  • All altitude data (only under certain conditions in walk mode)
  • All pulse data (only under certain conditions in walk mode)
  • Lap data if lap timer is used

- All cadence data (if the cadence kit is installe) Note:

If you are using the lap timers the lap data will have a flag. When transferring data from the computer to the PC the lap data are identified via this flag and are displayed and analyzed separately in the PC-Sport program.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:

a. The storage capacity of the device is configured for a total of 100 training hours.

b. After this total time is exceeded the new data automatically over-

writes the oldest data in the memory.

c. A manual delete of training data is not possible.
d. Due to the recording interval of 10 or 20 sec. there may be slight deviation between the data in your VDO computer and the data in the PC-Sport program (e.g. average pulse)

TIPP: Connect your VDO computer to your PC at regular intervals so that important data is not overwritten. Manual control/read out of the data records of the DATA RECORDING and a data delete is not possible on your VDO computer itself.
