4. Setup and Installation

Careful installation is crucial for the proper functioning of your electric bike. Follow these steps:

4.1 Controller Installation

1. Mount the controller securely on your bike frame, preferably within the provided storage bag. Ensure it is protected from water and physical impact.
2. Refer to the wiring diagram (Figure 4.1) for connecting the controller to the motor, battery, display panel, throttle, power assist sensor, and brake sensors. Match the connectors carefully.

4.2 GD01 Panel and Thumb Throttle Installation

1. Install the GD01 panel and 130X thumb throttle on your bicycle's handlebar. Both are designed for 22.2mm diameter handlebars. Secure them firmly but do not overtighten.
2. Connect the GD01 panel and thumb throttle cables to the corresponding ports on the controller as shown in the wiring diagram.

4.3 Power Assist Sensor (PAS) Installation

1. Attach the power assist sensor boosting sheet to the pedal crank.
2. Mount the power assist sensor wiring unit near the boosting sheet, ensuring proper alignment for magnetic detection.
3. Connect the PAS sensor cable to the controller.

4.4 Power Off Sensor Installation

1. Install the power off sensors on your brake levers. These sensors detect when the brakes are applied and cut motor power for safety.
2. Connect the power off sensor cables to the controller.
