Exactly! You can melt cables and components not if you use higher assistance rates or higher speeds but if you raise the power peaks and the maximum power, there that if the motor and the rest of the system is not very oversized you risk having nasty surprises, as a matter of fact it has already...
I don't know, I tried only to see the various levels but not to set the presets. However I think it is enough to select and use them then return to manual mode and see on which level Eco is set.
Did you ever try them software? E-tube by PC with Shimano interface and the diagnosis tools?
Do you know that the results even not report the exact value of the assistance stored in the system?
Many people wrote just because they have a keyboard and finger but without knowing anything about what...
Shimano offers "E-Tube" in PC version that requires SM-PCS01 or SM-PCE2 interface to connect to the bike fitted with any component of Steps or Di2 or the Smartphone and Tablet version, the latter however not yet able to set ECO even if they should soon become them.
The other smartphone app they...
And why? There are tons of junk apps on stores that to work they require explicit consent from the user to access a flood of personal information that resides on the phone in order to collect an infinite amount of data and then sell it to third parties and no one has ever removed it.
Shimano...
The deserved prize after the climb...
And rock and roll to get rid of the snack!!!
The photos do not make honor but that trail is a gut has a very friable and loose background and the average slope is around 34% with peaks well over 40.
I confirm, E-Tube for PC now allows you to set 3 ECO levels which are the same as the values below:
ECO:
- Low 20% 30Nm 500W
- Medium 40% 30Nm 500W
- High 60% 30Nm 500W
TRAIL:
- Low 70% 70Nm 500W
- Medium 90% 70Nm 500W
- High 110% 70Nm 500W
BOOST:
- Low 150% 70Nm 500W
- Medium 200% 70Nm 500W...
One more time... the Eco setting are connected to E-Tube and not to the firmware.
It you update E-Tube even connecting a Motor with firmware from 4.3.2 to 4.6.1 you will be able to set Eco in one of the 3 level.
Tested personally on my E-8000 motors yesterday with both the firmware mentioned...
It is not necessary to update the engine firmware, just update Etube and you can set ECO levels even on old firmware. On the other hand, 4.7.0 could block the operation of unofficial applications.
About the firmware what?
For now there are no third-party applications that allow the upgrade, indeed, the only one that instead requires a custom firmware is Eplus, which in fact besides being very expensive is also the most dangerous for the purposes of the guarantee and binding to the...
There is already a clear message both on the PC software and on the Android app that says that changing the maximum powers by raising them can cause irreparable damage to the motors, if one notices the warnings and decides to proceed the problem is no longer the developer but the user that he is...
Really soon I will post about one mechanical device my mechanics is working on to adapt and fitt all fox coil shock with piggy back and maybe even other brands shock.
Off course job done to be installed with second external original T.E.C. battery pack.
