SETTING THE COMPUTER
The computer must be set, or “programmed,” so that it gives its readout in the units preferred by the user, and so that it calculates with the correct wheel size. There are three ways to use the buttons:
• Push- touch once
• Cycle- push repeatedly as needed
• Hold- push and hold in for two or three seconds
The method used to set the computer varies according to the computer model. Follow the instructions covering your computer model, grouped as follows:
• Incite 6i and 8i (pages 7-9)
• Incite 9i and 11i (pages 10-12)
INCITE 6I AND 8I
Setting the 6i and 8i is done by pushing the two buttons in a specific sequence. The button on the side of the computer is the Set button. The large button on the bottom, which may look like two buttons, is the Mode button.
To set Odometer and Wheel size
By default, the odometer always starts at ‘0’. If desired, the odometer can be manually set at another value.
1. Cycle Mode to ODO.
2. Hold Mode until MH flashes.
3. Cycle Set between MH and KMH.
4. Push Mode to select measurement conversion.
5. Cycle Set to the preferred wheel size.
For a custom wheel size, see To set a custom wheel size
6. Push Mode to select wheel size.
7. Cycle Set for the first digit of Odometer.
8. Push Mode to select the digit.
9. Repeat steps 7 and 8 to select the other digits of Odometer.
The computer returns to current speed.
To set Custom wheel size
1. Cycle Mode to ODO.
2. Hold Mode until MH flashes.
3. Cycle Set between MH and KMH.
4. Push Mode to select measurement conversion.
5. Cycle Set to the four-digit number (see Table 2).

Setting the computer
To set Clock
1. Cycle Mode to CLK.
2. Hold Mode.
3. Cycle Set to 12 or 24 hour clock.
4. Push Mode to select clock.
5. Cycle Set to the hour.
6. Push Mode to select.
7. Cycle Set to the minute.
8. Push Mode to select.
The computer returns to current speed.
To Restart the trip modes
The trip modes include TRP, AVG, TME, and MAX. This operation sets all four values to zero, allowing the computer to display information for a single ride.
1. Cycle Mode to MAX.
2. Hold Set, and do not let up until after completing step 3.
3. Hold Mode.
The Max setting restarts at ʻ0ʼ.
Second wheel size (Wheel 2)
The following features are only on the Incite 8i. The second wheel size allows the computer to calculate using the wheel size of a second bike. For example, you can use the computer on your road bike with 700c racing wheels, then move it to your mountain bike with 26” wheels. In both cases, the trip distance and speed will be accurate. The computer adds the data for the two wheel sizes resulting in the total distance (ODO).
Step 8 in these instructions assumes you want to leave the odometer at its existing setting. If you want to change the odometer, refer to the steps in To set the odometer and wheel size.
To set second wheel size
1. Cycle Mode to ODO.
2. Hold Mode.
The mileage conversion (MH or KMH) will flash.
3. Cycle Set to your preferred conversion.
4. Press Mode to select .
The wheel size for Wheel 1 appears.
5. Hold both Mode and Set at the same time.
The wheel select icon appears in the upper left corner.
6. Cycle Set to your second wheel size.
7. Push Mode to select.
8. Push Mode to select each digit of the odometer.
The computer returns to current speed.
To select Wheel 2
1. Cycle Mode to TRP.
2. Hold Mode to select other wheel size.
