Loosen the two fastening screws of the bracket of the original instrument, disconnect the plug from
the instrument, remove the instrument with bracket. Fasten the motoscope pro mounting plate to the
fork bridge using the two screws and plug the connector into the vehicle wiring harness. Route the
plug connection under the tank. Riding modes, heated grips and the motoscope pro are operated
using the original buttons on the handlebars. Certain functions such as switching offthe alarm sys-
tem or cruise control cannot be operated via the motoscope pro.

Replace the original handlebar clamping plate with the motoscope pro bracket. Route the cable un-
der the tank to the OBD (onboard diagnostics) connector and plug it in. Certain functions such as fuel
gauge and deactivating the alarm system cannot be displayed or operated via the motoscope pro.

7.2 Battery and power supply
The motoscope pro works with voltages from 9V to 15V DC. Operation on vehicles without a 12V
battery in the vehicle electrical system is not possible. It cannot be used on vehicles with a positive
battery terminal on the vehicle frame. Please ensure that the polarity of the supply voltage is correct
during installation.
THE MINIMUM CROSS-SECTION TO BE USED FOR ALL CONNECTION CABLES IS 0.5 MM².
THE RED CABLE MUST BE PROTECTED WITH A 1A FUSE. IF IN DOUBT, HAVE THE CONNEC-
TION CARRIED OUT BY A SPECIALIST WORKSHOP.
8 Menu button, Tachometer, Speedometer
8.1 Menu button
The instrument is operated via a button. One pole of the button is connected to the green cable,
the other pole of the button is connected to vehicle ground. The polarity of the button is irrelevant.
Alternatively, the instrument can be operated via a touch-sensitive display. For this, the TOUCH
function must be activated in the setup.
8.2 Tachometer
All ignition systems that work with ignition coils are compatible. Connect the yellow connection cable
to terminal 1 (switched ground from the ignition box) of any ignition coil.
Connection to CDI ignitions (scooters, quads, enduros) is possible with the separately available
motogadget ignition signal pickup (item 9000001).

The ignition system must be fault-free for the speed display to function correctly. Settings must also
be made in the instrument setup. Please follow the instructions in the corresponding chapter..
CAUTION! THE YELLOW CABLE IS CONNECTED TO THE PRIMARY CIRCUIT OF THE IGNITI-
ON COIL. IT MUST NEVER COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE HIGH-VOLTAGE CIRCUIT.
8.3 Installing and connecting the speedometer sensor
8.3.1 Use of the original speedometer sensor
If there is an electronic speedometer sensor with three connection cables on the vehicle that out-
puts a ground signal, this can be used. Hall sensors (two connections) are not compatible with the
motoscope PRO. The signal cable of the sensor is connected to the white connection cable of the
motoscope pro. If no speedometer signal can be detected, the motogadget speedometer sensor
included in the scope of delivery is used.
8.3.2 Using the motogadget speedometer sensor
The speedometer sensor supplied is a reed switch. The magnet supplied is attached to a wheel
using 2-component epoxy adhesive, whereby the distance between the magnet and the wheel axle
can be as desired. The speedometer sensor is attached to the vehicle with a retaining plate so that
the magnet and sensor are parallel to each other. The distance between magnet and sensor must
not exceed 4 mm and the sensor must not touch the magnet. The retaining plate must be sturdy
enough to ensure that the distance does not change even when the vehicle is in motion. The tigh-
tening torque of the sensor nuts is 1.6 Nm, use screw adhesive (medium strength). One cable of
the sensor is connected to ground, the other to the white cable of the motoscope pro. The magnet
demagnetizes at temperatures above 100°C (hot brake system).
