Overview
4 6 Functions And Operation The m-Unit is able to act as central control unit in the vehicle’s electrical system. It provides following features: Without smart phone: •  Complete digital push button control unit; optional 4 or 5 push button operation  •  complete replacement of all OEM fuses 10 independent circuits are digitally supervised; a circuit will be shut down in case of interferences after removing the interference, the safety feature will be reset automatically •  integrated, digital, load-independent flasher relay; with programmable switch-off feature (optional), selectable m-Wave mode •  turn signal setting for use as position light •  parking light, headlight flasher •  integrated digital brake-light modulator with programmable flashing sequence, acceleration-controlled emergency brake-light •  pairing of m-unit with other motogadget products via LIN bus  •  integrated starter relay for solenoid switch (up to 30A switching capacity)  •  smart and fully configurable load control / shut-off for maximum starting power of battery on starting process •  low beam and high beam control (up to 200W switching power) using just one push button  •  integrated digital horn relay   •  integrated position-independent alarm system  •  integrated hazard light feature •  diagnostic feature for layout of input, output, circuit switching status, diagnosis of short-circuits etc. •  two fully configurable auxiliary outputs AUX1 and AUX2  Pairing of m-unit with your smart phone via Bluetooth in combination with our „m.garage“ app providing advanced functionality:  •  Pairing via Bluetooth LE (Low Energy); therefore extremely low power consumption of vehicle and smart phone cell •  reporting of alarm events (date, time, vehicle „down“ etc.) to smart phone •  real-time analysis of all inputs / outputs, measurements of currents, voltage, temperature •  manual switching of outputs using m.ride app (except starter) •  firmware updates from any location •  configuration of setup menu using m.ride app •  Keyless Go feature using encrypted and secure pairing with your smart phone  •  speedometer input is compatible with all standard vehicle speedometer inputs and automatically calibrates via smart phone GPS •  the m.unit's speedometer input for storage and matching of vehicle's odometer enables for vehicle management with an overview of maintenance tasks and states of wheels, chain, brake pads, oils, operating supplies, spark plugs etc. •  logging of states, alarms and maintenance •  fully automatic driver's logbook •  display of parking position and „ping“ feature for locating your vehicle •  calibration and accurate current measurement enable detection of defective LED turn signals and all standard illuminants  The m.unit is made of a newly designed high-performance thermosetting plastic and resistant to moisture,  heat,  cold  and  vibrations.  Microprocessor  operated  and  supervised  circuits  guarantee highest reliability. Current flow of each circuit is measured with high accuracy. In case of failure like a short-circuit the concerning loop will be shut down in a split second. All switching activities are carried out by state of the art semiconductor switches in a fast, wear-free and almost lossless way.
5 Therefore no other devices, relays, boxes or units as part of the wiring harness are necessary. A complete new and minimised vehicle wiring can be made with minimal time, materials and effort; compared to conventional solutions, only a fraction of space and cables is needed. State of the art technology like pulse width modulation afford new possibilities like connecting rear and brake light together  with  only  one  cable.  When  using  m.button,  the  number  of  handlebar  instruments connections will be reduced to a single cable by use of our interference-free, proprietary data bus.  The current status of each circuit is shown by an internal LED at the m-unit's topside : LED off  -  input not active, output not powered  LED on  -   input active, output powered – normal condition short flashing   -   output shut-down due to short-circuit or overload Turn Signals Automatic shut-off can be adjust in setup menu. If this feature is activated a countdown will start once the signal is flashing. If the adjusted countdown has ended the turn signal stop flashing. The countdown  will  stop  and  set  back  if  the  brake  is  activated.  Once  the  brake  is  released  the countdown start again with full time length. If a turn signal switch is used and signals has been automatically shutting down, the switch has to set back to centre prior set the turn signal switch again to left or right. If two turn signal push button are used is additionally the lane change mode available. If the button is pressed very shortly the signals will flash only 3 times.      Hazard light For starting the hazard light hold the push buttons for left and right turn signal for 2 seconds. If a turn light switch is used, the hazard light function can only be activated if a additional hazard light switch is activating both turn light inputs at the same time. The hazard light mode will stay active even if the main (ignition) switch is deactivated. Light control In order to save the vehicles battery power the head light is switched off after key lock is switched on.  The  head  light  will  be  activated  automatically  after  pressing  the  start  button.  Further  light control modes can be selected under setup menu no. 8. If a push button is used for high/low beam control, a short push will toggle between high and low beam. Holding the button for 2s will switch off the light completely. Pressing the push button again will switch the low beam light back on. A brief touch of push button is used for headlight flashing. When  using  a  switch  for  light  control,  it's  possible  to toggle  between  high  and  low beam  only. (Please refer to connection scheme.) The light outputs  (Light Hi Out / Light Low Out)  can switch 120W each  and are designed for  a maximum load of two halogen bulbs with 55W (low beam) and 60W (high beam) respectively. The parking light has to be activated under setup menu no. 12. The parking light is switched on, when on turning off the ignition the high beam light is activated. For the parking light feature, there is no need for an extra illuminant; the feature is realised with the existing illuminant for low beam / rear light. Parking light activation is signalised by two brief horn sounds. To avoid excessive battery discharge, please make sure, the parking light is switched on for 2h max. Kill switch The running engine can be stopped in three different ways: a) Double-clicking of engine start button Pressing the button again after engine stop will crank and start the engine in normal way.   b) Connecting a separate kill switch or push button at the "config" terminal. If a push button is used the engine is stopped if push button is shortly pressed. To release the kill function hold the button again  for  2  seconds  or  switch  ignition  lock  off  and  on  again.  If  a  kill  switch  is  used  wait  for  2 seconds between switching engine off and release the kill switch. c) When implementing controls with four push-buttons, the engine is killed by pressing the buttons for light and right turn indicator at the same simultaneously.
6 Alarm system The sensitivity of the alarm system is independent of its positioning and orientation. If activated, the alarm  system  will  flash  all  turn  indicators  when  the  main  switch  is  deactivated.  The  vehicle’s relative position and orientation will be recorded and stored and the alarm system engaged. The alarm is triggered when the orientation of the vehicle is changed on it’s X, Y or Z axis (e. g. when the vehicle is raised from it’s kickstand). Depending on the pre-set sensitivity, the alarm will also be triggered in case  of lighter shocks or agitation resp.  Depending on the chosen setup, the alarm system will trigger a pre-alarm and will only activate the alarm when the system is triggered again in a ten-second time frame. If the vehicle is transported (e. g. by ferry, trailer or tow-truck) the alarm system can be deactivated non-recurring by pressing the horn button while switching disengaging the main switch. If implemented within cars or sidecars, we recommend the highest sensitivity setting (option F). Keyless Go The pairing of m.unit and smart phone is a prerequisite of this feature. In the m.ride application, the feature can be activated / deactivated under „Garage/Fahrzeug_xy/Sicherheit/Keyless-Go/aktivieren“ (garage/vehicle_xy/safety/Keyless-Go/activate).  With active feature, the bike will be unlocked with a smart phone distance of less than approx. 4m. Pressing the start push button will switch on ignition, pressing it again will start the engine. Double-clicking the button will shut off the running engine, another double-click will shut off the ignition. When walking away from vehicle, the vehicle will be locked and the alarm system is activated (provided that it is enabled in setup menu). Please make sure to carry the ignition key on you, so you can start the vehicle even without a smart phone.  Speedometer sensor A speedometer sensor is required for matching the vehicle odometer with the m.garage app. In case the vehicle is equipped with speedometer sensor, connect the sensor signal cable to AUX2 input, and in setup menu 11, select option A.   In case the speedometer sensor is equipped with two connection cables, connect the ground cable to vehicle ground connection and the second cable to AUX2 input. If no speedometer sensor is equipped, please use the provided reed sensor. For signal detection, mount one of the provided magnets with glue to one wheel. In this case, the distance from magnet to wheel axle is irrelevant. Mount the speedometer sensor with a retaining plate in a way, that the surfaces of magnet and sensor tip are parallelly aligned with a 1mm gap. The reed sensor tip shall not be flush with the bracket; make sure, it is protruding from the bracket by approx. 5mm. The bracket may not be made from magnetizable materials (iron, steel etc.), but shall be made from aluminium, stainless steel or plastics. When driving under load, the distance between  magnet  and sensor  may not  vary! When  rotating the  wheel, no  magnetizable material (e.g. a steel-made bolt) may pass the sensor tip.  The maximum tightening  torque for  the sensor  mounting nuts  is 1  Nm. Please  use thread lock (medium strength) for mounting. Connect the sensor cable to vehicle ground and the second cable to AUX2 input.  The vehicle speedometer signal is automatically calibrated. Therefore it is required, that the app is allowed to access the GPS receiver of your smart phone.
7 7 Mechanical Installation Mount the device on a flat surface (metal base plate) free of tension using two M5 screws.  No  push or  pull  force  should  act to  the  device.  Area  of Installation  must be  protected  from spray water  and 30cm  away from  hot engine or  exhaust parts.  Maximum  ambient temperature must not exceed +80°C or go below -20°C. All warranties and extended warranties will be deemed forfeit in case of mechanical damage to the device. The m-Unit is connected to vehicle ground by the two mounting screws. Therefore one of the  mounting  screws  must  connected  directly  to  battery  minus  terminal.  The  necessary cable cross section for this connection cable is 1.5mm².  8 Electrical Connection 8.1 General  The device is working in a voltage range between 6 to 18V direct current. Use in vehicles without battery is not possible.   Make sure that the vehicle is equipped with interference suppressed spark plugs or ignition cables. The minimum distance between ignition coil or high tension cables and m-Unit must not be below 30 cm.  8.2 Safety Functions Currents  in  the  range  from  18-40V  (e.  g.  in  case  of  defective  controller)  will  trigger  the activation of the horn. This prevents unnoticed battery cook-off and damage to appliances due to continued driving. Loose  cables  can  release  currents  from  40-80V.  In  this  range,  the  m-unit  activates  all appliances  to  protect  itself.  However,  the  resulting  protection  is  only  short  term  and prolonged  (several  seconds)  or  repeated  currents  surges  will  burn  out  the  connected appliances (e. g. high or low beam light bulbs). When the current surge can no longer be compensated,  burn  out  occurs  and  the  respective  output  will  become  damaged permanently.  Such  damage  is  indicated by  the  defective/dysfunctional  high  or  low  beam outlet. In this case, all warranty claims will become forfeit. Reverse  polarity  of  the  battery  will  cause  the  activation  of  all  connected  appliances  to protect the m-unit. PLEASE  ENSURE  TIGHT  BATTERY  CABLE  CONNECTIONS.  WHILE  THE  ENGINE  IS RUNNING,  LOOSE  CONTACTS  CAN  CREATE  STRONG  CURRENT  SURGES  ABLE  TO DAMAGE APPLIANCES AND M-UNIT BEYOND REPAIR. 8.3 Fuses  While the m-unit itself does not need a fuse, the implementation of a vehicle main fuse is mandatory since the voltage regulator (connected to the battery via the main  fuse) might malfunction and create a short circuit. If  cables  with  a  lesser  diameter  than  indicated  in  Chapter  8.4  are  connected  (e.  g. motogadget instruments or the m-lock), they have to be protected by the included fusible links.
8 8.4 Cable Routing Recommendations Cables used in vehicles must be suitable for this application. We recommend our cable kit (order # 4002031). Cable insulation must have a adequate thickness and insulation material must have a resistance against fuel, oil, cold and heat. Please use  only cables which are certified for  use in vehicles. Not fused wires which lead from battery positive terminal to starter motor  or to m-Unit must have the shortest length possible. It is very important to protect the insulation of these cables against damage by wearing. At contact points between cable and vehicle parts additional insulation protection is necessary. Before routing cables look for suitable cable paths. The cables should be as far away as possible from hot parts of the engine. Look for a suitable place for the respective cables to meet with their plugs and for the plugs to be connected with one another. This is usually in the headlight housing, somewhere below the gas tank or in the cockpit. Make sure you take note of the required lengths of cables before cutting them for best fit. It is important here to consider the full lock of the handlebars as well as the front and rear wheel travel. All cables should be routed free of kinks and should not be subject to any tension. In addition, the cables have to be properly isolated, especially in places where mechanical wear can take place. We recommend solder joints. For fastening the cables we recommend cable ties of  synthetic material. The cables are connected to m.unit using spring terminal blocks. Push down the orange coloured insert  next  to  the  cable  entry  to  insert  the  exposed  cable  end  into  the  terminal  block.  Use  a screwdriver tip to push down the insert. 8.5 Wire Cross Sections Wire diameters used in a circuit are dependant on the current flow that particular circuit. Following plan shows the minimum wire cross sections used in the single circuits of m-Unit. The installed wire cross sections must not go below the shown values.  .
9 8.6 Connecting Battery’s Positive Terminal Cable connection has to be carried out as shown in the drawing at the right side. The minimum wire cross section must no go below 10mm². The cable end has to be supplied with an eyelet and will be mounted with a M5 screw to the m-Unit. The maximum torque applied to the M5 fastening screws must not exceed 4 Nm. Screw adhesive medium strength must be applied to the screw prior installation. MAKE  SURE  THE  EYELET  IS  INSULATED  IN  A  PROPER  WAY  AND  CANNOT  GET  IN CONTACT TO OTHER PARTS CONNECTED TO VEHICLE GROUND.  8.7 Handle Bar Controls Three different types of handle bar controls are compatible with m-Unit. The particular type which will be used with m-unit must set in the setup menu.  Configuration A) – 5-push button controls -  turn lights left    -  push button -  turn lights right    -  push button -  low beam / high beam  -  push button -  start       -  push button -  horn      -   push button Configuration B) – Harley Davidson and BMW controls -  turn lights left    -  push button -  turn light right    -  push button -  low beam / high beam  -  switch -  start      -  push button -  horn      -   push button Configuration C) – most Japanese and European motorcycles -  turn lights left / right   -  3 way switch  -  low beam / high beam  -  switch -  start      -  push button -  horn      -   push button configuration D) – new Ducati models -  turn lights left / right   -  3 way switch  -  low beam / high beam  -  push button  -  start      -  push button -  horn      -   push button configuration E) – 4-push-button controls -  turn lights left    -  push button -  turn lights right    -  push button -  low beam / high beam  -  push button  -  horn      -   push button -  start      =  left turn + light simultaneously -  kill switch     =  right turn + light simultaneously  In case of using the OEM handle bar controls together with m-Unit; head light flashing push button is not applicable. There is also no possibility to switch the parking light by the m-Unit. Additional safety switches like side stand switch have to be connected as shown in chapter 8.9.
10 7.8 Connecting Load Circuits  The m-Unit provides 8  independent circuits which are permanently supervised. At all connected loads were the positive terminal switched, that means, from m-Unit’s output terminal lead one cable to the  load which is connected to vehicles earth. At the  particular output  only the intended load must be connected. The connection scheme is shown on next page. If control lamps will be used; these have to be connected in parallel to the load as shown in chapter 7.9                Simplified vehicle circuit diagram The circuit diagram below shows a simplified vehicle wiring loom.
11 Simplified vehicle circuit diagram with m-Button (optional accessory) The circuit diagram below shows a simplified vehicle wiring loom with use of the m-button.  Therefore 6 wires do not apply, because only one cable is needed to connect handle bar controls with m-unit.  THE M-BUTTON MUST LOCATED INSIDE A METAL HANDLEBAR TUBE.                 8.8.1 Special features START Output The starter output consists of two connection terminals. Starters with integrated solenoid (magnetic switch) with a current flow of maximum 30A (e.g. Valeo, Bosch, Harley Davidson), are connected using  a  connection  cable  with  2,5mm²  cross-section  to  one  of  the  two  outputs.  Starters  with  a solenoid generating currents up  to 50A  will require  both connecting  terminals using cables with 2,5mm² cross-section. All starters with separate starter relays (e.g. Japanese models) must continue to be operated using the original starter relay. In this case, the output „start“ is connected to the relay which switches the actual cranking current (>100A). On some vehicles, this starter relay is switched using a second relay for protection of start push button. This second relay will become obsolete. IGNITION Output This output powers the ignition system. The ignition system must be connected to this output only.  AUX1 Output All loads like rear light, license plate light, radio, heated grips etc. are powered by this output. In setup menu, different configurations of this output are possible depending on the use.
12 brake light (21W)one wire to m-Unitoutput "brake"vehicle earth fromframe or rear fenderrear light (5W)AUX 2 Output This output is designed for multiple use and equipped with 2 connecting terminals. Depending on configuration, AUX2 input can be used for switching operations (via button / switch), or switching can be automatically performed.  Ignition Lock When using m-Lock as ignition lock, the m-Lock switching output (brown cable) can be connected directly to the m.unit input LOCK. NOTE:  For older Japanese models, resistors can be integrated into the ignition lock (simplified anti-theft protection). When  bridging or  removing the ignition  lock, the ignition  system  will  not generate a spark,  before  a  specific  cable,  directly  routed  from  ignition  unit  to  ignition  lock,  is  switched  to ground or high side (+) using an external resistor. The required resistor can be ordered in regular stores; the resistor value is determined by measurements.  If the vehicle is equipped with an immobiliser, in most cases this feature will be deactivated via a built-in  transponder inside  the  ignition key.  In this  case, the  ignition  lock can  not  be  bridged  or removed.   According to German Road Traffic Licensing Regulation (StVZo), the vehicle has to be equipped with a steering lock. If ignition lock and steering lock are built as one unit, please clarify in advance, if you are allowed to carry the lock separately on you (e.g. as a brake disc lock), which requires the registration in vehicle documents). One-wire Rear Light With default wiring, the BRAKE output is connected to brake light, and the rear light is connected to AUX1 output. If you like to connect rear light and brake light with one common wire, please select the correct setting  in setup menu  no. 2  (refer  to  chapter 8).  In  this  case,  rear light  and brake  light  will  be switched together in parallel and connected to the common output „Brake“.         Emergency Brake Light In this configuration (menu 4 / option G), a detected deceleration of more than 8m/s² that exceeds a 1000ms time period, will be considered as an emergency braking event. The braking light will pulse with 5Hz and the hazard lights are active while braking. This is used to prevent collisions by giving clearly visible warning signals to the traffic behind you.    Use of original light toggle switch with m.unit

Press the push button briefly to switch to next menu / option. Press the push button for an extended time (2s) to toggle between menu and option.  The drawing below contains an overview of all menus and selectable options.                       9.4 Exit from setup Press and hold the push button until the device changes back to normal operation mode. 9.4.1 Calibration When  exiting  from  setup,  m.unit  calibrates  to  be  able  to  detect  defective  illuminants  while operating. To do so, the outputs TurnR, TurnL, Light, Highbeam, Brake and AUX1 are switched on one after the other to measure the individual currents applied on each output. In case of a defective illuminant, a message will be transmitted to the m.ride app and, if possible, the change to a different illuminant will be executed (low beam / high beam or rear light / brake
16 light,  respectively).  In  case  of  a  defective  turn  signal  light,  according  to  legal  regulations  the flashing frequency will be doubled. Therefore, every  time the  existing  wiring  is  changed  or a  different  illuminant is  used, the setup needs to be started for re-calibration and exited.  9.5 Example for Setup The following example is demonstrating the operation in setup mode. Alarm is deactivated. The example shows how to set it to option D (pre-alarm 10s, medium sensitivity).
17 10 Pairing m.unit with a smart phone To be able to connect the m.unit to your smart phone, you will have to install the m.garage app first.  In  the  app,  create  the  vehicle  first,  and  then  in  the  menu  Custom  Parts,  select  the manufacturer „motogadget“ and „m.unit blue“.  Under the  app menu item Setup, click  on Pairing. Now,  start  the m.unit setup  (ignition ON  and press the horn push button 3 times). Press and hold the start push button for 10s. If you are not using a start push button (i.e. kick-start), connect input Start to ground for 10s.  Now,  m.unit  will  connect  to  your  smart  phone;  please  observe  the  instructions  /  notes  on  your smart phone.  11 Trouble-shooting  11.1 After installation and on initial start-up •  Please make sure, the battery provides a sufficient voltage of 12.4V minimum (ignition OFF). •  Check that the ground connection between mounting bolt of m-Unit and battery negative terminal (vehicle ground) is established in an optimal way. •  Do not use a battery charger to check the device functionality. •  Due to permanently applied, low voltages, it is not possible to measure the voltages at the inputs and  outputs.  These  voltage  values  do  not  provide  any  informations  in  terms  of  the  correct functionality of the input / output. A functional test has always to be executed using a suitable load (e.g. a light bulb).  •  Check all cables for correct connection and contact, proper polarity, short-circuit and short-circuit to ground.   11.2 Return And Complains  When returning your m.unit for technical inspection, please follow the link below: http://motogadget.com/de/repairinquiry   The motogadget team wishes you pleasant and safe riding, and lots of fun with your new m.unit.
