• Electronic Bite-Point Calibration
  • Precise adjustments in 1.0 % and 0.1 % increments
  • Change bite-point via configuration tool or directly on the wheel rim:
    1. push both joystick buttons for 1s to acces bite-point mode
    2. LED lights up to indicate calibration mode
    3. rotate left joystick for 1.0 % increments / right joystick for 0.1 % increments (LED flashes to indicate changes)
    4. exit calibration mode by pushing both joysticks again for 1s
  • Recommended procedure for finding best setting:
    1. enter calibration mode and set bite-point to high value, e.g. 80 %
    2. pull slave clutch only
    3. apply throttle
    4. reduce bite-point in 1.0 % increments (left joystick) until vehicle starts moving
    5. make test starts to fine tune desired bite-point setting
    6. exit bite-point calibration mode
  • Recommended procedure for quick race starts
    1. pull both master and slave clutches
    2. apply throttle
    3. race start -> let master clutch snap
    4. it will take less than 20 ms to reach desired bite-point
    5. slowly release slave clutch
