Baserunner V6 User Manual
Rev0
The Cycle Analyst is responsible for determining the desired ebike behavior and
sending a suitable throttle signal to the controller. It is an independent device that
does not communicate with the controller in any way, it only sends a bidirectional
throttle / regen voltage signal.
The 6 pin PAS plug of the controller is typically not used in this arrangement
except as a possible Fwd/Rev input source. The 9 pin Mains cable either can be
left unterminated, or it can be used as a power tap for running rear lights, using a
9 to 2 pin power adapter cable.

Party Display Hookup with Superharness
The Baserunner V6 can be used with certain third party displays (from King
Meter, Star-Union, APT etc.) that communicate using the KM5s and other
supported digital protocols. This is achieved with a Main9 cable harness which
splits out the signals into separate plugs for throttle, display, ebrakes, and front
light.
If an (optional) PAS or Torque sensor is used, this is hooked up to the 6 pin PAS
plug of the motor controller itself. The Cycle Analyst plug is not used.
The display has the on/off power control and up/down settings to set the assist
level, but otherwise plays a passive role in the actual system behavior. Grin's
Superharness solution for the Main9 cable provides further functionality to allow
the swapping of digitial ebrakes, analog ebrakes, dual throttles, or bidirectional
throttles without changing any controller configuration.
3.3 Headless System
Finally, the Baserunner V6 can be run with only a throttle on the Main9 plug, or a
PAS / Torque sensor plugged into the 6 pin PAS plug. In these arrangements, it
is essential to wire up the on/off power switch on either the WP8 plug or the
Main9 connector for the controller to turn on, as outlined in Section 8.1. Grin
supplies an “All-in-one” throttle device that has a built-in voltmeter and on/off
switch for use convenient use in such Barebone systems.
