04/2022: Release notes for Nyon (BUI350) version 3.0.0.0

New features:

  • Map view for search results: Find points of interest (POI) with your Nyon - switch from list view to map view to see the location of a POI on the map. Start navigating to the POI of your choice by selecting it in the map view. Tap the blue icon to switch between the two views.
  • Autozoom: If you approach a bend or intersection and reduce your speed, the map view on your Nyon changes automatically. It now shows you the detailed view of your surroundings. The speed-dependent automatic map zoom is available in 2D map mode. Activate the option under "Map settings".
  • Display of waypoints: In the eBike Connect online portal, you can plan your tours including stop-off points - select up to eight from the list of POIs or add further destinations. These stop-off points, also called waypoints, are now displayed on your Nyon during navigation. Nyon signals you with a short tone when you have reached a waypoint. During the ride, you have the flexibility to simply skip planned waypoints - Nyon will take you to the next waypoint. Please note that you can only plan your tours with waypoints in the eBike Connect online portal.
  • Track fitness goals: This new feature allows you to set personal goals and track them directly on Nyon. How many calories do you want to burn this week? How much distance do you want to cover this month, and in how much time? How many metres of altitude do you want to conquer this year? - By tapping on the goals screen, you can switch between the different views to track your progress live. You can set your desired values in the settings under Tile settings > Screens & tiles > Goals. Optionally, you can also access the settings via the cogwheel icon in the tile.
  • Extension of the savings screen: You can now track how many CO2 emissions you can save with your eBike compared to trips by car. By tapping on the savings screen, you can switch between the two views: Money or CO2 savings.
  • Automatic display brightness: You can either set the brightness of your Nyon display manually or leave this task to the integrated ambient light sensor. This automatically adjusts the screen brightness to the respective lighting conditions. In addition, you can determine the intensity of the brightness control in automatic mode - if your eyes are sensitive to bright light, move the slider to the minus range. If you need more brightness, move the slider to the right. Regardless of the setting you make, the display brightness is still controlled automatically - but it takes your personal preference into account.

Improvements:

  • Map material: The map material was updated as of October 2021. The map update also includes the online portal and the eBike Connect smartphone app.

  • Reichweitenhinweise: Nyon weist bei der Tourenplanung darauf hin, ob das Ziel mit der eingestellten Motor­unter­stützung erreicht werden kann. Unterwegs informiert Nyon frühzeitig, falls ein anderer Unterstützungsmodus gewählt werden sollte.
  • Leistungsvergleich: Nyon vergleicht Geschwindigkeit, Leistung und Trittfrequenz der aktuellen Fahrt mit den Durchschnittswerten und zeigt an, ob die eigene Performance besser oder schlechter ist als der Durchschnittswert. 
  • Lock: Durch die Premium-Funktion Lock wird mit Abziehen des Bord­computers die Motor­unter­stützung deaktiviert, was das Pedelec für Diebe unattraktiver macht. Erst durch Aufstecken desselben Bord­computers entriegelt sich die elektronische Sperre wieder.
