5.1. Displayed Content

  • Speedometer: Current speed (MPH/KM/H).
  • Odometer (ODO): Total distance traveled.
  • Trip Meter (TRIP): Distance traveled per trip.
  • Battery Indicator: Current battery level.
  • Cruise-control active light: Indicates when cruise control is active.
  • Gear indicator: Current speed gear (0-3 digital display).
  • Fault warning light: Indicates system errors.
  • Current voltage value (VOL): Displays real-time voltage.

5.2. Basic Operation

  1. Power On/Off: Long-press the Mode/Enter button for 2 seconds.
  2. Switch Display Interface: When powered on, short press the Mode/Enter button to cycle between ODO, TRIP, and VOL displays.
  3. Change Gear: When powered on, press the '+' or '-' button to change the speed gear.

5.3. NFC Card Binding

The VSETT series supports NFC (Near Field Communication) for secure scooter activation. NFC cards are bound by factory default.

Initial State (Instrument not bound to ID card):

After starting up, the LCD displays normal content, and the card swiping area displays the power voltage. At this time, the meter can directly enter the working state without an NFC card swipe.

Binding an ID Card (Late Setting):

To bind a new NFC card or use a mobile phone with NFC functionality:

  1. Long press the Mode/Enter button for 5 seconds until the display shows 'B 0'.
  2. Place the ID card (or NFC-enabled phone) close to the card swiping area.
  3. The display will show 'B 1' if the card is successfully tied. The default setting allows unlimited use of the bound card.

Unbinding ID Cards:

  1. Long press the Mode/Enter button for 5 seconds until the display shows 'C 0'.
  2. All ID CARDS that have been unbound will be displayed.

Bound State (Instrument bound with ID card):

After starting up, the LCD displays 'Card', the power voltage is not displayed, and the swiping indicator flashes. The NFC card needs to be swiped to start up the scooter; the accelerator will not work without a successful swipe.

Each E-Scooter is typically equipped with 3 NFC keys.

7. Maintenance

  • Keep the throttle and display unit clean and free from dust and debris.
  • Regularly check all electrical connections for tightness and signs of wear.
  • Avoid using harsh chemicals for cleaning; a soft, damp cloth is sufficient.
  • If NFC cards are lost, contact your local dealer or agent for replacements.

8. Troubleshooting

  • Display shows 'Card' and scooter does not accelerate: This indicates the unit is in a bound state. Swipe a registered NFC card over the reader to activate the scooter.
  • Unable to bind new NFC card/phone: Ensure you are in the correct binding mode ('B 0' displayed) and that your phone's NFC function is enabled and correctly positioned over the reader.
  • Display contents differ from manual: Due to product upgrades, some displayed contents may vary. This typically does not affect normal use.
  • No power to display: Check all electrical connections, especially the 6-pin connector, to ensure they are securely attached. Verify the scooter's main power is on.

10. User Tips

  • For some scooter models (e.g., Kugoo G Booster), installation may require soldering and re-wiring of the connector, as the native wiring might differ. Professional installation is highly recommended in such cases.
  • When using your phone as an NFC key, ensure your phone's NFC function is activated before attempting to bind it.
  • Always double-check all connections after installation to prevent issues during operation.
