ELECTRICAL FEEDING BY VEHICLE’S BATTERYNOTE: THIS KIND OF CONNECTION IS NECESSARY FOR THE OBD MODULE UTILIZATION: ECU UNITDIALOGUE IS POSSIBLE ONLY IF AXONE IS CONNECTED TO THE GROUND REFERENCE OF THEECU UNIT (THE BATTERY’S MINUS END)

1. Connecting cable2. Connector3. Feeding socket4. Battery clamps cable

BATTERY RECHARGING ADVICES:

1. First two recharges must be done for atleast 12 hours

2. when charging cycle is complete, the batterycharger will authomatically switch off

3. start charging process when AXONE2000 hasreached room’s temperature (20°C)

NOTE: feeding AXONE2000 withthe vehicle’s battery, the internalbattery, if necessary, isauthomatically recharged.

AXONE 2000 activation procedure:

1. Insert the battery pack as explained in the attached instructions chart;2. If, switching the instrument on, the battery level is low, charge the battery for at least 12

hours;3. The software will open an activation screenshot;4. The activation screenshot opens a code-insertion window;5. Call telephone number +39 0422.8410136. Ask for “Aprilia AXONE activation”7. Mrs. Francesca Teston will answer you;8. Tell AXONE serial number (located on the back of the instrument) and eventually other

reference data;9. Insert through the keyboard the code supplied by Mrs. Francesca Teston;10. Use “up arrow” and “down arrow” keys to select code’s numbers and letters;11. Confirm with the “ENTER” key every number / letter;12. At the end of the sequence, AXONE is permanently activated.

DIAGNOSIS

ACQ MODULE REQUIRED. Switch AXONE2000 off andinsert the ACQ module.

“DIAGNOSIS” function allows to perform a physical analisysof the signals transmitted to the ECU by the various elementsconnected to it: sensors (input signals) and actuators (outputsignals).The operations are on-screen guided and are available forvarious Aprilia models.

Available models:HABANA 50LEONARDO 125 C.D.I.RSVMilleSCARABEO 50SR 50 DITECHSR 50 air cooledSR 50 L.C.

CHANNEL 1

“SIV” (Signal Information Viewing”) TEST PROCEDURE

The available tests with this kind of diagnosis are “user friendly”:

- The different tests become available only if the signal of the device to analise iscompatible with the specific test.

- The signal is compared with treshold values that are stored in AXONE2000 memorycard for every selectable model. If the signal passes the treshold value is consideredan error and an acoustic alarm sounds.

STANDARD “SIV” TESTS AND GENERAL USE SPECS:

• STARTUP LEVEL àà views the signal’s curve and detects wrong signal values in thecritical engine startup phase.

• LINEARITY àà views the signal’s curve and checks the signal’s linearity.

• MIN / MED / MAX àà views the signal’s curve and stores the minimum / medium /maximum values reached.

• MISSED SIGNALS AT STARTUP àà counts the missed signals through the suddenfrequency variations (example: magnetic sensors or “Hall” sensors diagnosis).

20

Choose one of the available“SIV” tests.Confirm with ENTER.

TEST TYPE:1. Single (one single screenshot of acquisition)2. Continous (continous acquisition)Make a choice then press ENTER.The test begins.

>> OSCILLOSCOPE SCREENSHOT <<

The dot lines represent the borderlines where thesignal has to be considered normal for the selectedvehicle. The vehicle’s data are already stored inAXONE2000’s memory card. Every time the signalpasses the borderlines, an error is registered.

SINGLE ACQUISITION: the test stops with only onegraphic screenshotCONTINOUS ACQUISITION: the test stops only if ananomaly is detected. Press ENTER to stop the acquisition.The anomaly is highlighted by an acoustic / visual warningsignal.

21

SELF-DIAGNOSIS

OBD MODULE REQUIRED. Switch AXONE2000 off and insertthe OBD module.

ECU-CONNECTION CABLE and BATTERY CONNECTIONCABLE REQUIRED.THE BATTERY CONNECTION CABLE HAS TO BECONNECTED WITH THE VEHICLE’S BATTERY AND NOTTO AN EXTERNAL BATTERY TO ALLOW THECOMMUNICATION.

The self-diagnosis system reads the informationcommunicating directly with the ECU unit of the bike.

It is possible to:- Read the functioning parameters of all the devices

connected to the ECU unit.- Read directly the fault codes.- Adjust some engine management parameters.

WAVE SIGNAL’S SYNCHRONICITY

The wave form is stabilized thanks to a signal generated by AXONE 2000’s CPU.

INTERNAL SYNCHRONICITY (INT)Synchronisation allows to “freeze” the signal on the screen starting from a certain level ofvoltage amplitude (signal’s link in amplitude). The signal is viewed only over a certain levelof voltage amplitude and always in the same position of the screen.We can also select the signal’s link on the time axis, in order to have the horizontalcentering of the signal on the screen.

Procedure à select the INT key moving with the arrow keyspress ENTERadjust the positioning of the two small blinking cursors (one for the “V”axis, one for the “T” axis) with the arrow keys“V” AXIS CURSOR: indicates the link point (polarity and amplitudelevel) of the synchronized signal.“T” AXIS CURSOR: indicates the starting point of the synchronizedsignal, translated to the right in comparison to the standard zeroposition (left of the screen).

EXTERNAL SYNCHRONICITYFunction not available.

MANUAL SYNCHRONICITYSelect the MAN key moving with the arrow keys.Press ENTER to start the signal’s reading.The synchronicity is still the one selected with the INTERNAL SYNCHRONICITY function(see above), but the signal’s reading starts manually pressing ENTER key.Press ENTER again to start a new reading, which will be overlapped to the previous one,alowing the signals’ comparison.
