2.3 Handling of Wheel Units

The Wheel Units are equipped with a built-in, high-

performance battery with a capacity of 6.5 Ah.

2.3.2 Storing the Wheel Units

Self discharge



temperature of 20 °C is less than 5 %, with a charge level

between 15 and 50 %.

Storage temperature

The recommended storage temperature is between 15 °C

and 30 °C without direct sunlight in a dry, clean, well-

ventilated place.

KiRoad Wireless HDR, Type 9813C... and Type 9822A...

9813C_002-952e-10.23Page 8

Storage outside of these temperatures can lead to a

greater amount of self discharge, lower performance and

swelling of the battery cells.

Minimum charge level during storage

A minimum charge level of 3.62 V at the end of storage is

necessary to prevent deep discharge.

the battery!

If the battery voltage is low or even 0 V after storage, the

battery must be charged as quickly as possible to avoid

the voltage of one or more cells falling below a level

where the cell can be damaged.

To do this, "wake up" the battery by connecting the

supplied charging device.

When the battery receives no charge, it is likely that the

voltage in one or more cells has fallen below the voltage

level below which it is prohibited from accepting a charge

for safety reasons. Because of this, the electronic protec-

tion circuit is activated and inhibits further charging.

If the battery is to be stored for more than 3 months to

less than one year, proceed as follows:

Regular monitoring of the battery voltage, at least

once every 6 months

If necessary: Charge the battery up to 50 % of its

capacitance

Important notes

Page 99813C_002-952e-10.23

2.3.3 Using the Wheel Units after a long storage period

After a long storage period, the following procedure is rec-

ommended:

Complete discharging of the battery

Preferably, run a complete charge / discharge cycle.

Otherwise, it may take 2 to 3 cycles until the maximum

capacitance is available again

Completely charge the battery

2.3.4 Safety information

Do not dismantle the battery



Do not short circuit it

Do not drop or hit it forcibly

Only charge it with the original charging device

2.3.5 Transporting the Wheel Units

Legal conditions

Due to the lithium ion battery installed, the wheel units

must be shipped as hazardous materials. The UN number

UN 3481 applies.

3.1 Overview

The KiRoad Wireless HDR On-board Unit serves as

access point for up to four KiRoad Wireless HDR

Wheel Units, Type 9822A..., and enables measure-

ment data to be output to the connected data acquisition

device. The connected RoaDyn wheel torque transduc-

ers automatically log on and identify themselves after the

tem is quickly ready for operation without additional user

action. The signal is output to the data acquisition system

own encrypted WLAN network, several KiRoad Wireless

systems can operate simultaneously without interference,

e.g. several vehicles each equipped with 4 RoaDyn trans-

ducers.

If a Kistler DTI-Logger is used for data acquisition, only

one cable is required for the On-board Unit to transfer the

Sequence in normal operation

1. All LEDs o:

The Wheel Unit is not supplied with power. Turn the unit on by pressing

the button in the center of the control panel.

2. All LEDs on:

After power-on, all LEDs light up while the Wheel Unit performs its basic

3. All LEDs ash slowly:

Basic initialization completed. Waiting for the end of the WLAN module

boot phase.

4. 1 LED wave (1►2►3►4►3►2, ⟲):

WLAN module initialized. Connection to the OBU and request of the

position. If the wheel unit has not yet been paired with an OBU, the

initialization process is aborted here. In this case start the positioning

process as explained on the next page.

5. 1 LED on (e.g. LED 3):

The corresponding LED lights up for 3 ... 5 seconds.

6. 1 LED flashes (e.g. LED 3):

The Wheel Unit is connected, the data measurement is running. A LED
