MOTOGADGET M-BUTTON

The m-Button, in combination with the m-Unit V.2, helps to reduce cable clutter to a minimum and simplifies wiring harnesses significantly. Integrated into the handlebar tube - or other suitable location - this tiny cylinder will electrically connect all handlebar instruments, switches and buttons. Using state-of-the art bus technology, the m-Button digitally processes signals and transmits them via a single, thin cable to the m-Unit V.2, where the electrical consumers are switched on and off. All the control wires are routed into the handlebar, saving space, weight, labour and time. The m-Button is also fully encapsulated, making it waterproof and vibration-proof.

How it functions:
With 'normal' wiring of the handlebar switches, the operating current (e.g. headlight or turn signals) is fed via the handlebar switches themselves. Due to the strength of current, cables with large cross-sections have to be routed from the fuse box to the switch and back to the electrical consumer. The result is thick cable bundles. The m-Unit V.2, in combination with the tiny m-Button, minimises the amount of cables that have to be routed. All switches/buttons on the handlebar are connected to the m-Button by the shortest route, inside the handlebar. Then just ONE thin cable has to be routed from the m-Button to the m-Unit. The loads and currents are switched at the m-Unit V.2 itself. So you can say goodbye to cable clutter!
