![]() ![]() Like the Dispatch 1, multiple Neutrino modules can be installed on different platforms and managed by one controller (smartphone with app), although only one system at a time. It should take less than five seconds (you might actually see the one-time detection of the module displayed on the Bluetooth device listing before it disappears) before the connection is made. The wireless process is similar to any other pairing, although the use of Bluetooth LE (Low Energy) makes the whole process faster and seamless. Turn on the ignition and once the phone beeps, confirming the connection for data and power (if the wired USB connection is used) and the Neutrino can be launched. With the smartphone connected to the Neutrino module using a direct USB connection or the wireless Bluetooth connection, initial set-up of the Neutrino can be accomplished using the installed app. Once I install a small lightweight lower-profile Shorai battery (a winter project), the module will fit in a small housing on top. When air filter servicing is required, the Neutrino module lifts off its hook-and-loop base and when moved forward slightly to lift the wiring bundles out of the “canyon” the air box cover screws are accessible. It was oriented forward to facilitate installation of the main leads (encased in F6 wrap) and the accessory leads (colour coded and labeled) as they make their entrance from the sides with the space between the battery and air box acting as the “organized wiring” area.Īgain, all existing six leads I still had available from the Dispatch 1 were used.Īlthough a couple of hours on a warm late summer afternoon was time well spent cleaning up the wiring runs for a bit less clutter overall. Unlike the Dispatch 1 black box that ended up mounted in the back frame section on the original F 800 GS and then externally sheltered from the elements inside a small weatherproof camera bag, on the new GS Adventure model, the Neutrino is mountable almost anywhere.Īnd that even includes the real-estate-limited F650/700/800 series Beemers.īut for expediency and easy access, I mounted it to the proven spot on top of the air box cover. ![]() Sample Installation: 2014 BMW F 800 GS Adventure ![]() A few spare Dispatch 1 power leads are still stored on the shelf as needed anyway. Outside of one new lead run forward, the existing Dispatch 1 wire sets were retained although the 90-degree co-axial connectors were cut off to facilitate the direct wire connections. The USB lead turns slightly upwards so it can be secured with 3M Dual-Lock to a flat spot on the deck component below the left corner of the front seat section. The sensor and USB leads route out the left side, with the long sensor lead running back along the rear section of the trellis frame guided with two small black adhesive cable tie mounts. The main power leads are encased in a common length of Flexo F6 wrap and routed between the major OE harnesses then down along the edge of the shock and back up to the battery housing area. One is on top of the electronics under the front seat section and the second in the vicinity of the TPMS module mounted to the rear fender (now readily accessed thanks to the large cut-out in the deck component) provided options.įor the initial installation, the underseat location was utilized with a small rectangle of plastic sheet used as a floor and insulator from the electronics directly below. Two easily accessed locations are available on this bike. ![]()
