Starting with firmware version 37, Adventure Control features a redesigned power saving mode (Idle mode) specifically designed for Li-ion and LiFePO batteries.
Key updates include:
Voltage Level Independence: The power saving mode is no longer dependent on voltage levels. This means that even with input voltage exceeding 13.5V (as seen with LiFePO batteries), the power saving features will still function properly.
Exiting Idle Mode: To exit Idle mode, simply press the Map Centering button, which is the first button located below the joystick.
LED Indicators:
- The controller's LEDs will turn off after 20 minutes of inactivity (no user input), while the Bluetooth connection remains active.
- After 3 hours of inactivity, the controller enters deep sleep mode.
Power Consumption:
- When the LEDs are off, the Adventure Control's consumption is approximately 5mA.
- In deep sleep mode, power consumption drops to a few microamps, a level that is effectively negligible from a practical standpoint. For reference, the self-discharge and idle consumption of standard electronics on your bike are significantly higher than this.
Firmware version is displayed in the Controller app when Carpe Iter Controller is connected:
If your firmware version is lower than 37, please update the Controller app - firmware update will be applied to your Carpe Iter controller upon first connection after updating the app.
When updating from lower firmware versions, you might need to unpair the controller and make new connection - please refer here for details.
If your controller does not go into the Idle mode, please make sure that you did not disable the Idle mode in the Controller app Settings (the feature "Disable Idle mode" needs to be greyed-out) - your controller must be connected, to be able to access the Settings:
