BAFANG DPC080 Ebike Display User Manual
Model: LV-US DPC080 Display
Introduction
The BAFANG DPC080 1.9" TFT EBike Display is designed for BAFANG CAN Protocol mid-motor systems, including M200, M300, M400, M410, M420, M500, M560, M510, M600, M620, M800, and M820. This display provides a comprehensive and user-friendly interface for your electric bicycle, enhancing your riding experience with clear data and intuitive controls.
Important Compatibility Note: This display operates using the CAN protocol. It is not compatible with UART protocol motors, which typically feature a 5-pin circular connector.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Display does not power on. | Low or dead ebike battery; Loose cable connection; Faulty display. | Charge ebike battery; Check all cable connections, especially the 5-pin triangle connector; Contact Bafang support if issue persists. |
| Display shows "Error Code". | Motor or sensor malfunction; Communication error. | Refer to the Bafang motor manual for specific error codes. Often, restarting the system (power off/on) can resolve temporary errors. Check motor and sensor connections. |
| Inaccurate speed reading. | Speed sensor misalignment or damage; Incorrect wheel circumference setting. | Check speed sensor position and ensure it's clean. Verify wheel circumference setting in display settings or Bafang Go+ app. |
| Display not compatible with motor. | Motor uses UART protocol instead of CAN protocol. | This display is exclusively for Bafang CAN protocol motors. It is not compatible with UART motors. Ensure your motor is a CAN version. |
| Screen difficult to read in bright light. | Backlight setting too low; Glare. | The display has an auto-dimming feature. Ensure it's functioning correctly. Adjust brightness settings if available, or reposition the display slightly to reduce direct glare. |
