To change the settings of your device, select the Device menu item in the settings. The settings are described in the following table:
Device setting Description
Language Set the desired language for the device. You can choose from a total of 8 languages.
Units Here you have the possibility to choose between 3 options:
1. Metric: All units are output in the metric system (km, kg, meter, ° C)
2. Imperial: All units are output in the imperial system (mi, lb, feet, ° F)
3. Individual: For each unit you can specify the format in which you would like it to be displayed
Setting the clock To set the time, first select the time format (12 or 24 hour format). Then you have to set the correct time zone and indicate whether daylight
saving time is currently in your time zone. The R5 GPS then automatically sets the correct time if a GPS satellite has been connected.
These settings are also synchronized with the smartphone.
Set the date For the correct date, first select the date format. Here you can choose between dd.mm.yy and mm / dd / yy.
Then set the current year, month and day. These settings are also synchronized with the smartphone.
GPS Select whether the R5 GPS should receive speed and distance via GPS.
If you set this option to OFF, this data must come from external sensors or the eBIKE.
Height Under this setting menu you can choose between two settings:
1. Auto: The altitude is calibrated with the GPS altitude at each start.
2. Manual: There is no automatic altitude calibration, you have to do this manually before each training session.
For manual calibration you can choose between the current GPS altitude and enter the current altitude manually if you have more accurate
altitude data.
Auto pause With this setting you define whether the R5 GPS should automatically switch to a pause mode at speeds < 2.2 km/h.
If this setting is OFF, the training time and data recording run continuously.
Sounds Here you can mute the R5 GPS or allow tones.
Smart notifications Here you can set whether you want to receive smart notifications from your smartphone or not. If this option is set to ON,
your smartphone must be connected to the R5 GPS and the notifications for the desired smartphone app must be activated.
Backlight Under this menu item you can set how the background lighting of the R5 GPS should behave.
There are two options:
1. Automatic: The background lighting switches on automatically when the R5 GPS detects dark ambient lighting.
2. Press the button: The backlight only switches on in a dark environment when a button is pressed.
The lighting remains on for 5s if no other buttons are pressed.
Description With this setting you can switch the value labels ON or OFF during training. If this setting is OFF, a direct page change takes place when
the + or - button is pressed. If this setting is ON, the value is displayed for 2s in each field.
Tire circumference Here you can set the tire circumference of your bike. This option is only relevant if you have connected a speed sensor.
You can choose the appropriate tire size from a list or set the value manually.
Auto Off If this setting is ON, the device switches itself off after 15 minutes of inactivity to save energy. If a training unit has not yet been saved,
you can continue it after switching on the device again. There is an exception here. If the R5 GPS has been connected to the PC via
a USB-C cable, the training session is automatically saved and ended.
