Section 3: Riding Profiles, Power Assist Tuning & Special Modes
Precision Assist Tuning and Electronic Power Modes
The M15 interface provides technicians and riders with versatile riding profiles to balance range optimization against maximum hill-climbing power.
***Three Pre-Set Riding Modes:**
***ECO Mode:** Delivers smooth assist at maximum efficiency to achieve the longest possible cruising range.
***CITY Mode:** Provides uniform, balanced power output tailored for urban commuting.
***SPORT Mode:** Unlocks full motor power and immediate response for climbing steep inclines and off-road riding.
***Configurable Assist Levels:** Configurable from **1 to 8 assist levels**, plus a **Zero Level** where electric assist is completely disengaged while telemetry remains active.
***Specialized Drive Options:**
***Auto-Level (A):** Automatically modulates motor power and wheel speed relative to real-time bicycle velocity.
***Climbing Boost (C):** Delivers elevated motor torque when pedal sensors detect steep uphill resistance.
***Reverse Drive (R):** Drives the motor backwards at controlled low speeds for specialized vehicle maneuvering[10].
***Walk Assist & Cruise Control:** Includes a **6 km/h walk-boost mode** to help push heavy bikes uphill, as well as electronic cruise control functionality.

Section 4: Advanced Torque Sensor Calibration & Thermal Safeguards
Startup Calibration Protocol and Deep Parameter Tuning
The M15 display serves as a direct technician terminal for calibrating ToSeven’s torque-sensing mid-drives without external tuning hardware.
***Startup Zero-Point Torque Calibration:** On torque-sensing motor setups, the system performs an automatic zero-point calibration during boot-up.
***⚠️ Critical Rule:** The pedals and cranks **must remain entirely free of load or pressure** during startup and calibration to prevent incorrect voltage baseline recording.
***Torque Sensor Parameters:**
***Operating Modes:** Select **Sensitive** mode (activates when Net torque output voltage exceeds the startup threshold) or **Safe** mode (requires Net torque output voltage AND active pedal rotation).
***Voltage Thresholds:** Tune **ZeroVol** zero-point voltage (**100 mV to 2000 mV**), **MaxVol** output voltage (**1000 mV to 3300 mV**), and **StartupNetVol** net starting voltage (**200 mV to 2000 mV**).
***Pedal Angle & Smoothness Filters:** Fine-tune **KeepAngle** (**0° to 180°**), **MinOutCurrent** (**0 A to 10 A**), and signal **Filter** (**0 to 10**) for smooth pedal feel.
***Controller & Motor Over-Temperature Protection:**
* Configurable thermal protection start points (**50°C to 100°C**) and maximum limits (**60°C to 120°C**).
* Automatically restricts motor power output (e.g., limiting to 50% or 70% power) if operating temperatures exceed safe thresholds.

Section 5: System Safety, Diagnostics & Maintenance Protocols
On-Screen Diagnostics and Instant Error Detection
To maintain long-term reliability and protect hardware from electrical or mechanical damage, the M15 actively monitors system health.
***Real-Time Warning Flags:** Displays instant visual alerts on screen if an electrical anomaly occurs.
***Diagnostic Fault Coverage:** Immediately flags critical fault conditions, including:
***Communication Interrupted:** Detects loose or damaged EB-Bus communication cables between display and motor controller.
***Motor Blocked:** Warns of mechanical drivetrain obstructions or severe overload conditions.
***Controller Broken:** Identifies internal electrical overload or protection triggers.
***Emergency Cutoff Integration:** Integrates with EB-Bus magnetic brake sensors to instantly cut motor power when levers are squeezed, while back-pedaling provides a mechanical secondary motor cutoff on ToSeven systems.
