3. Setup and Installation

This cable is designed for integration with a KT controller system on an electric bicycle. Proper installation ensures all connected components function correctly.

1. Identify Components: Before installation, identify the corresponding ports on your e-bike's KT controller, display, throttle, e-brake levers, and headlight (if applicable). The 1T4/1T5 cable features distinct connectors for each component.

2. Connect to Controller: The end of the 1T4/1T5 cable with exposed wires (or a specific multi-pin connector, depending on your controller model) is intended for connection to the main KT controller. Ensure each wire is connected to its correct terminal on the controller as per your controller's wiring diagram. Refer to your KT controller's manual for precise wiring instructions.

3. Connect Peripherals: Connect the individual waterproof connectors of the 1T4/1T5 cable to their respective e-bike components:
   • Match the display connector to your e-bike display unit.
   • Connect the throttle connector to the throttle assembly.
   • Attach the e-brake connectors to your e-brake levers.
   • If applicable, connect the light connector to your e-bike headlight.
   Ensure all connections are firm and fully seated to maintain waterproof integrity.
4. Cable Management: Route the cable neatly along the bicycle frame, securing it with cable ties or clips to prevent snagging or damage during riding. Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable.
5. Test System: After all connections are made, power on your e-bike system and test the functionality of the display, throttle, e-brakes, and lights to ensure proper operation.

Note: If you are unsure about any part of the installation process, it is recommended to seek assistance from a qualified e-bike technician.

4. Operating Instructions

The XBERSTAR 1T4 1T5 Waterproof Cable functions as a critical conduit for your e-bike's electrical system. Once correctly installed, it enables seamless communication and power transfer between your KT controller and various peripheral components.

• System Integration: The cable integrates the signals and power for the display, throttle, e-brakes, and lights, allowing them to operate in conjunction with the KT controller.
• Waterproof Protection: The waterproof design of the cable and its connectors ensures reliable operation even when exposed to moisture, such as rain or splashes, protecting the internal wiring from water ingress.
• Normal Operation: With the cable properly connected, your e-bike's display will power on, the throttle will control motor speed, the e-brakes will cut motor power upon activation, and lights will function as intended by the controller or separate switch.

No direct user operation is required for the cable itself; its function is to facilitate the operation of your e-bike's integrated system.

5. Maintenance

Proper maintenance of your XBERSTAR Waterproof Cable will extend its lifespan and ensure continued reliable performance of your e-bike's electrical system.

• Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect the entire length of the cable for any signs of wear, cuts, abrasions, or kinks. Pay close attention to the areas where the cable bends or passes through tight spaces.
• Check Connections: Ensure all connectors remain securely seated and free from dirt or corrosion. While the connectors are waterproof, keeping them clean will prevent potential issues.
• Cleaning: If the cable becomes dirty, wipe it clean with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the rubber insulation.
• Avoid Stress: Do not pull on the cable forcefully or allow it to be stretched or pinched, as this can damage the internal wires or external insulation.
• Waterproof Integrity: While designed to be waterproof, avoid submerging the cable or connectors in water for extended periods. Ensure the rubber seals on the connectors are intact and not cracked or damaged.

6. Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your e-bike's electrical components, the XBERSTAR Waterproof Cable may be a factor. Here are some common troubleshooting steps:

• No Power to Components (Display, Throttle, Lights):
  • Verify that all connectors on the 1T4/1T5 cable are fully and securely plugged into their respective components and the KT controller.
  • Check the main power connection from the battery to the controller.
  • Inspect the cable for any visible damage, such as cuts or severe kinks, which could indicate a broken internal wire.
• Intermittent Functionality:
  • This often points to a loose connection. Re-seat all connectors firmly.
  • Check for any corrosion on the connector pins. Clean if necessary (ensure power is off before cleaning).
• Specific Component Not Working (e.g., Throttle, E-brake, Light):
  • Ensure the specific connector for that component is properly attached to the 1T4/1T5 cable and the component itself.
  • Test the component directly if possible, or consult your e-bike's overall wiring diagram to isolate the issue.

If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, it is advisable to consult a professional e-bike technician or contact XBERSTAR customer support for further assistance.
