<p>A direct connection of the Rally GT lighting (delivery date before 2020) to the vehicle's on-board power supply would lead to a short circuit.<br /><br />Rally-GT odometers from delivery date 2020 are designed to be more short-circuit-proof. If the lighting of these devices is connected directly to the on-board power supply, the lighting will not work. <br /><br />The battery holder is attached directly to the back of the Rally-GT with self-adhesive Velcro tape.</p>
<p>The electronic wheel collector is mounted on the rim or wheel hub of a non-driven wheel by means of an adapter flange.<br /><br />The adapter flange is permanently connected to the rim or wheel hub. The wheel collector is attached to the adapter flange with a central fixing screw.<br /><br />If the wheel collector is not needed, it can be removed by loosening the central fixing screw. The adapter flange remains on the rim or wheel hub.<br /><br />The interface between adapter flange and wheel collector is closed by a protective cap when the wheel collector is removed.<br /><br />To ensure the tightness of the wheel collector, the central fixing screw is located under an additional screw plug.<br /><br />The adapter flange must be individually adapted to the rim or wheel hub (central locking nut is also possible). Therefore it is necessary that you send us the rim and / or wheel hub. The wheel pick-up delivers 6 pulses per revolution with 2 independent sensors.<br /><br />The supply voltage is 5-24V. The cables are routed in a plastic tube and protected against the penetration of dirt and moisture and damage.<br /><br />The maximum cable length is 1.8m. The connection is made via a 6-pin screwable plug.</p>
<p>The Rally-Drive GT consists of two coordinated units:<br /><br />1. The control unit in which electrical or electronic pulses from a speedometer signal or other encoder are detected and converted into a synchronous control signal for a stepper motor. The control unit is splash-proof and can therefore also be installed outside the cockpit.<br /><br />2. The drive unit for the Rally-GT which is mounted directly on our Rally-GT odometer instead of the change gear holder (for X and Z gears). The drive unit can be mounted without any modifications or alterations to the Rally-GT and can be exchanged at any time for the change gear mount.</p>
<p>The Rally-Drive Speed consists of two coordinated units:<br /><br />1. the control unit in which electrical or electronic pulses from an encoder are detected and converted into a synchronous output voltage for a DC motor. The control unit is splash-proof and can therefore also be installed outside the cockpit.<br /><br />2. the drive unit to the speedometer in which the DC motor is located. This is connected with a cable to the control unit and with a speedometer shaft to the speedometer.<br /><br />The adjustment with the speedometer is carried out individually for each vehicle by means of a tablet or notebook.</p>
<p>With Rally-Gear it is possible to operate the mechanical odometer Rally-GT and all other mechanical odometers in vehicles in which no speedometer shaft is available to drive the odometers.<br /><br />If the vehicle in question is equipped with an electric/electronic speedometer, the speedometer signal is tapped and used to control Rally-Gear. The Rally-Gear software recognises the characteristics of the speedometer signal and adjusts itself automatically (self-learning).<br /><br />If there is no corresponding speedometer signal available, it is possible to supply the Rally-Gear with the necessary signals via its own sensor. The sensor is mounted on the vehicle in such a way that it picks up the rotation e.g. from the cardan shaft or from a wheel and thus generates the signals.<br /><br />The odometer is driven by a stepper motor that changes its speed synchronously with the input signals.<br /><br />The connection between the odometer and Rally-Gear is made by a plug/plug-in drive shaft (see "Accessories" section)<br /><br />The Rally-Gear is powered by the 12V on-board voltage.<br /><br />When driven by Rally-Gear, the odometer is not referenced by exchanging the gears on the odometer but by adjusting the ratio of input signals and stepper motor speed in Rally-Gear.<br /><br />An app (Android only) is available for this purpose, which is installed on a tablet or mobile phone. If the tablet or mobile phone is connected to Rally-Gear via USB cable, the app will open automatically. Referencing is then carried out by entering the reference distance and the distance displayed on the odometer. All further calculations are performed automatically. After disconnecting the connection between Rally-Gear and tablet/mobile phone and briefly interrupting the power supply to Rally-Gear (ignition off/on), Rally-Gear is referenced.<br /><br />The connection between Rally-Gear and tablet/mobile phone is only necessary for referencing. The tablet/mobile phone is not needed while driving!</p>
