RedPed 2s for Shimano E-Series (E8000, E7000, E6100, E6000, E5000)

RedPed 2s for Shimano E-Series

Probably the most comprehensive tuning tool specifically for e-bikes with Shimano Steps E-Series motors (E8000, E7000, E6100, E6000, E5000), also compatible with Di2. This tuning module is compatible with the practical RedPed 2 App, which gives you a wide range of configuration options. The app can also display a variety of useful driving data while you're on the go.

Compared to the previous model, the RedPed 2 Plus, was that RedPed 2s has been further improved. The most important innovation is that the actual speed on the e-bike display can now be read as a decimal number (i.e., using the second digit and the decimal place). The reset function has also been simplified. Also new is the option to perform a firmware update.

The main function of the RedPed 2s is the removal of the 25 km/h speed limit, which allows much faster driving with full engine support. With the help of the RedPed 2 app, you can even set the maximum supported speed to a custom value (up to 45 km/h). The app also lets you set a custom activation code to turn the tuning on and off.

Note: After installation, the tuning can be activated/deactivated via the app as well as via the control buttons on the e-bike. not It is absolutely necessary to take your smartphone with you on every trip.

RedPed 2: Innovations compared to the previous model (RedPed 2 Plus):

-Real speed as a decimal number in the e-bike display (previously, only half of the actual speed was shown): From a speed of 22 km/h, the current speed is displayed using the second digit and the decimal place on the display (a displayed speed of 23,3 km/h would therefore correspond to an actual speed of 33 km/h, etc.). Of course, this only works with e-bike displays that display the speed with one decimal place.

-Very precise adjustment of the Wheel circumference via the AUTO function. A correct wheel circumference setting is important for a correct speed display.

-Mountain Mode for models with Di2 gears: Since the RedPed If the split speed generated by the module always lags behind one wheel revolution, error W2 may occur on Shimano e-bikes with Di011 gears at low speeds. The new function synchronizes the speed of the bike and the RedPeds (this can cause small jumps in the speed display of the e-bike display).

-Der trailing is now calculated automatically without having to enter the mileage.

-Easier reset of the module: Simply switch on the e-bike and plug the included reset cable into the reset connector. After 20 seconds, the RedPed The module is reset. After that, simply remove the cable again.

-firmware Update is possible.

RedPed 2s for Shimano E-Series - Features

-25 km/h speed limit is liftedThis allows for much faster riding with full motor support.

-Set maximum speed: The maximum assisted speed can be set to an individual value via the app, from 15 km/h to 45 km/h (45 km/h is the theoretical maximum speed; the actual achievable speed depends on various factors, e.g. the chainring and motor).

-Display of detailed driving data via the app (see below).

-Tuning can be switched on and off, via the app, or using the light button. When activated using the light button, you can specify how often the light needs to be turned on and off to activate the tuning (press 0-20 times). The counter function shows how many times the light has already been turned on and off.

-Use the app to set whether the tuning should be active for just one ride or permanently.

-Tuning Timer: With this function, the tuning is deactivated after a self-set time as soon as the bike has come to a standstill (between 10 and 180 seconds).

- "visibility": Here you can set how long the module should be visible in the app after the e-bike has been switched on. This can prevent unauthorized access by third parties.

- "Combination for visibility": Here you can set how often the light must be turned on and off to make the module visible. The counter shows how often the light has been turned on and off.

- "Share speed at": Sets how the speed should be divided (10-24 km/h). The higher the value, the better. However, if it is set too high, assistance will stop before the maximum speed is reached. In this case, the set value must be reduced again.

-Enter wheel diameter: By specifying the exact wheel diameter, an exact speed display as a decimal number in the e-bike display is guaranteed (AUTO function).

-Real speed on display display as a decimal number (yes / no).

-Mountain mode switch on and off (see above).

-trailing: This value shows how many KM the engine is missing due to dividing the speed.

-Optional correct mileage after re-removing the module.

Data display via app

RedPed The app not only allows you to change the settings of the RedPed You can also set the module's settings, and you can also view numerous useful driving parameters while on the go. You can also customize the display to your personal preferences—for example, you can hide values, change the colors of columns and rows, etc. You can also change the font size in the settings (Android) or zoom in on the speedometer (iPhone).

Here are the driving parameters displayed, these are always real Values:

• Tuning Status (On/Off)
• Correct speed & actual distance traveled
• Maximum speed
• driving time
• Average speed
• Mileage

firmware Update

If necessary, a firmware update for the RedPed 2s module, so that the tuning can be updated again and again (Android & iOS). To do so, you have to open the menu in the app and click on "Firmware Update". The "RedPed Version" shows the current firmware. The "Image Version" is the latest version. If this is higher than the "RedPed Version," the "Start Update" button will automatically appear. As soon as you press the button, the update will begin. After the update, the module will restart, retaining all settings. The e-bike must not be turned off during the update.

Installation & Functionality

The RedPed The 2s module must be connected between the speed sensor and the motor (to access the required connectors, the motor's protective cover must be temporarily removed). In most cases, the module can be placed in the motor's connection area (sometimes in the frame tube). Further information can be found in the user manual. RedPed needed no own battery; since the power supply is provided via a free display socket.

The RedPed 2s module is robust because the module's electronics are coated with a layer of varnish and are also protected by a shrink tube with internal adhesive.

After installation, the RedPed The module measures the actual speed and generates its own speed signal for the engine control unit. This generates a lower speed, thus outsmarting the 25 km/h speed limit. This allows for much faster driving with full motor assistance.

You can find installation and operating instructions here.
