Can I use the Stromer OMNI app for a Stromer I bought used?

Using OMNI app for used Stromer

To be able to use the Stromer OMNI app for your used Stromer, an authorized Stromer dealer must connect the bike to your Stromer OMNI account.

Please also ask the seller or previous owner of your Stromer s-pedelec to commission the transfer of the Stromer from his or her dealer. This ensures that he or she has actually sold or intends to sell the vehicle.

  1. Download the Stromer OMNI app to your smartphone (from the App Store or from the Google Play Store).
  2. Your dealer creates a Stromer OMNI account for you.
  3. Provide your dealer with the following information:
  • First and last name
  • E-mail address
  • Cell phone number
  • VIN of the purchased/sold Stromer

As soon as your dealer has registered you, use the Stromer OMNI app to create a PIN for your Stromer under “Settings”/”Change PIN”. This will automatically be sent to your bike and to your registered cell phone number. You can now make full use of your used Stromer.

How can I charge the electronic shifting system of my Stromer ST2 S (OMNI Interface C)?

Stromer ST2 S (OMNI Interface C): Charging the electronic shifting system

The Shimano XTR Di2 is the first electronic mountain bike shifting system. Instead of a mechanical connection between shift lever and rear derailleur, the shifting commands are transmitted electrically allowing 100 % precise control. The fewer mechanical components allow for less maintenance as well as better shifting quality.

In the Shimano XTR Di2 the control is completely integrated into the display, which shows all important information such as charge status, gear position and shift mode. The battery of the Shimano XTR Di2 shifting system is also charged via the display. The ST2 S is equipped for this with a USB charging socket.

Please observe the following when charging the Shimano XTR Di2 battery via your Stromer:

  • Connect ST2 S charger to Stromer.
  • Switch on Stromer.
  • Connect the Shimano XTR Di2 charger to Stromer USB charging socket and connect to the Shimano XTR Di2 unit.

Depending on the shifting frequency and temperature, one charging cycle of the shifting system can be sufficient for up to 2,500 km. A full charge takes about 90 minutes.

For further information on the rear derailleur, display and switches, please refer to the user manual.

The Shimano XTR Di2 is the first electronic mountain bike shifting system. Instead of a mechanical connection between shift lever and rear derailleur, the shifting commands are transmitted electrically. Shimano thus allows a 100 % precise control. The fewer mechanical components allow for less maintenance as well as better shifting quality.

In the Shimano XTR Di2 the control is completely integrated into the display, which shows all important information such as charge status, gear position and shift mode. The battery of the Shimano XTR Di2 shifting system is also charged via the display.

Please observe the following when charging the Shimano XTR Di2 battery via your Stromer:

  • Connect ST2 S charger to Stromer.
  • Switch on Stromer.
  • Connect the Shimano XTR Di2 charger to Stromer USB charging socket and connect to the Shimano XTR Di2 unit.

Depending on the shifting frequency and temperature, one charging cycle of the shifting system can be sufficient for up to 2,500 km. A full charge takes about 90 minutes.

For further information on the rear derailleur, display and switches, please refer to the operating instructions.

How does the integrated GPS module of my Stromer e-bike work?

Stromer ST1 X, ST2, ST2 S, ST3, ST5: E-bike GPS

Stromer e-bikes equipped with OMNI C have an integrated GPS module. This allows you to locate the vehicle periodically via the Stromer OMNI app. If the theft mode of the Stromer e-bike is activated, the position of the bike is recorded via the GPS module.

The GPS module cannot be switched off. Third parties are unable to view the data, however, and the position is only determined if you use the Stromer OMNI app to inquire about the location of your bike, for example, or if theft mode is activated. A GPS signal is required so that the position of the Stromer bike can be pinpointed via GPS. This is strongest outdoors.

How does the regenerative braking mode of my Stromer e-bike work?

Stromer e-bike regenerative braking

For longer descents, the Stromer e-bike offers braking assistance, the regenerative braking mode:

  • For this, press and hold the minus control button for 2 seconds.
  • Briefly press the plus or minus button again to adapt the braking power.
  • To end regenerative braking, press and hold the plus or minus button again for 2 seconds.
  • Regenerative braking is also terminated automatically if the speed falls below a specified minimum and you start pedaling.

The current strength for regenerative braking is a maximum of 15 amps. To protect the battery, regenerative braking is reduced as battery charge increases. This means that when the battery is almost fully charged, regenerative braking is barely or no longer noticeable.

How does the theft mode of my Stromer s-pedelec work?

Stromer ST1, ST1 X, ST2, ST2 S, ST3, ST5: Theft mode

Theft mode is activated if the locked Stromer e-bike is moved or pushed for an extended period of time. The theft mode works as follows:

  • The motor is blocked, making the bike virtually impossible to ride.
  • The position of the stolen vehicle is recorded if a cell network connection is available.
  • The lights flash.
  • The owner receives a text message on the cell phone number registered upon activation.

If your Stromer is stolen without the theft mode activated, you can activate it manually via the Stromer OMNI app. The Stromer can only be taken out of theft mode by using the Stromer OMNI app.

Please note that the theft mode is only effective if the battery is in the bike and has a minimum residual charge.

To what extent is my data visible in the Stromer OMNI app and who can access it?

Stromer OMNI app: Privacy

See item 3 in the data protection guidelines for the Stromer OMNI app for specifications.

 

USA only: I own a Stromer bike with a monochrome OMNI display that is locked and now I can't unlock it because the app no longer works.

Your ST2 / ST1X is a bike that still has the monochrome OMNI (black-and-white display).  Since the 2G network was switched off, you can no longer connect to the bike with the app. 
For this reason, you also cannot reset the PIN. Unfortunately, we also no longer have access to the bike and therefore cannot set you a new PIN remotely. 
However, you have the option of having your Stromer dealer remove the OMNI and send it to us at the factory. We have the possibility here on site to unlock the OMNI and set a new PIN. Please contact your dealer, who will arrange this for you.

What do the regenerative braking modes “Recup 1” and “Recup 2” mean for the Stromer e-bike?

Stromer e-bike regenerative braking

Your Stromer ST1 X, ST1, ST2, ST2 S, ST3 or ST5 supports you when braking during longer downhill runs and offers the regenerative braking mode for this purpose. On the one hand this can be used as a motor brake to protect the brakes when riding downhill, and on the other hand it returns power to the battery.

The difference between the regenerative braking modes “Recup 1” and “Recup 2” is the strength of the regenerative braking.

If you set the assistance to “zero” and press the minus button once, “Recup 1” will switch on. If you press the minus button again, “Recup 2” switches on.

“Recup 1” is used for light downhill runs and “Recup 2” for steeper downhill runs. If you ride with a full battery, the regenerative braking is inactive to protect the battery.


How-to video for all Stromer models with OMNI Interface (ST1 X, ST2, ST2 S):

What does connectivity mean?

Connectivity means the connection of your Speed Pedelec with the Stromer OMNI app on your smartphone. The Stromer ST1 with older OMNI B connectivity is paired to the smartphone via Bluetooth. The functions are more limited here compared to the OMNI C. GPS localization is not possible, for example. Stromer therefore offers you the opportunity to order the ST1 with OMNI C color display as a factory option. This option can be selected in the Configurator.

The color display on-board computer OMNI (2G technology) and OMNI C (3G technology) offer a number of functions that can be called up via the Stromer OMNI app including GPS localization, Smartlock function, individual motor settings in assistance level 2 and storing of various user statistics.

The Stromer OMNI app is available in the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.

What does GPS localization mean for Stromer S-Pedelecs?

Stromer S-Pedelec: GPS localization

All Stromer Speed Pedelecs with Stromer OMNI Interface and OMNI Interface C can be localized via GPS if the vehicle is switched on and is connected to a cellular network. 

What does the charging cycle or “state of health” mean?
One charging cycle is the complete charging and discharging process of the battery. Incomplete charging or discharging is referred to as a partial charge. Because an entire charging cycle is rarely performed, if ever, because charging is practically never performed from 0 to 100 %, we don’t refer to charging cycles for our batteries but instead to the “state of health”. This takes into account much more than just the charging processes: For this reason, the state of health must not fall below 75 % during the 24-month warranty on the battery. This state of health of the battery can be tracked in the Stromer OMNI app.
What does the OMNI C upgrade of my Stromer ST1 cost?

What is Stromer OMNI connect?

Stromer OMNI connect

With the cloud-based platform Stromer OMNI connect, Stromer has developed its own communication system for its Speed Pedelecs: You can set the riding characteristics according to your needs using the on-board computer. Intelligent functions like automatic locking (“Smartlock”), keyless battery ejection (“Keyless”), anti-theft protection with GPS localization and individual motor settings make the daily commute even more comfortable. The Stromer OMNI app also allows your Stromer to communicate with you at any time. The GPS function is not possible on the Stromer ST1 with OMNI B, as the network communication occurs via Bluetooth here. You have the option, however, of upgrading to OMNI C or ordering the model directly with OMNI C when purchasing a new bike.

What is the “Community” function under User statistics in the Stromer OMNI app?

Stromer OMNI app: “Community” function 

Under “Community” you can see the rider statistics overall average of the Stromer community, meaning all Stromer riders with a connected bike. 

How-to-video:

What is the battery management system (BMS)?
The battery management system (BMS) controls and monitors all processes in the battery and enables communication via the OMNI Interface (display). The BMS thus turns a conventional battery into a smart battery. It increases the safety of the battery by ensuring that all the cells are only operated in the permissible voltage range and protects against overheating as well as overvoltage and undervoltage. This increases the service life of the battery cells. A deep discharge of the battery in normal operation is also prevented. An integrated balancer ensures that any existing voltage differences between individual cells are equalized. When charging, the BMS prevents the battery from overcharging. OMNI Interface or the Stromer OMNI app can be used to monitor charge level, status and temperature of the battery.
What is the difference between user statistics and bike statistics in Stromer OMNI?

Stromer OMNI: User statistics and bike statistics

The user statistics in Stromer OMNI show how many kilometers you have already ridden as a person. This is independent of the bike: As soon as you ride a Stromer e-bike that is registered in your name, the kilometers are counted. The bike statistics show the kilometers traveled by the bike, regardless of the rider. Under Community you can see the average of all Stromer e-bike riders. 

What riding functions does my Stromer ST1 with OMNI Interface B offer?

Stromer ST1 (OMNI Interface B): Riding functions

Your Stromer ST1 offers all the usual Stromer riding functions:

  • Three assistance levels of various strength, one of which can be configured via the Stromer OMNI BT app.
  • Five regenerative braking mode levels of various strength (motor brake at rear wheel).

If the Stromer bike has no cell network reception or no connection can be established to the network, this is indicated by a circle with a line through it.

Arrows
Flashing arrows indicate that data is being sent or received. A flashing arrow pointing down means the bike is receiving data. A flashing arrow pointing up means the bike is sending data. A flashing arrow in a box means a firmware update is being received. As soon as the update has finished loading and is ready for installation, the arrow in the box stops flashing. 

Note:
The indicators do not appear in all riding displays. If a miniature battery charge level display appears below the speed display, no connection display will appear. Toggle to a different ride screen to show the connection indicators.

Where do I activate and deactivate the Autolock function in the Stromer OMNI app?

Activating and deactivating the Autolock function in the Stromer OMNI app

With the Stromer OMNI app you can activate and deactivate the Autolock function of your Stromer ST1 X, ST2, ST2 S, ST3 or ST5.

To activate Autolock, open “SETTINGS”/“AUTOLOCK” in the Stromer OMNI app and set a timer. The minimum period that can be set at the timer is three minutes.

If you have activated the Autolock function by app, here you can set a time after which your Stromer is automatically locked once you have parked it. To unlock it, enter your PIN in the touchscreen when you switch on the bike.

Note:

  • Autolock can only be activated via the Stromer OMNI app. Users without an app can lock the Stromer bike directly via the touchscreen.
  • If you ride off on a locked bike, after a short time the theft mode is activated.
  • If Autolock is not activated, the bike is automatically switched off if it remains inactive for 5 minutes without being locked.

Where do I set assistance mode 2 in the Stromer OMNI app?

Stromer OMNI App: Personal tuning with assistance mode 2

Assistance mode 2 of your Stromer ST1 X, ST1, ST2, ST2 S, ST3 or ST5 can be tuned via the Stromer OMNI app. In the menu you can set the following parameters to your needs under “TUNING”:

  • Speed – Limits the maximum speed of motor assistance
  • Torque – Higher torque produces faster acceleration.
  • Agility – Reaction time of motor assistance.

As soon as you have created your personal tuning, an asterisk will appear on the assistance mode 2 screen in riding mode.

OMNI must be activated to use this function. The tuning is loaded as soon as your Stromer is switched on and a cell network signal is available. The bike must be stationary in order to activate the tuning.

Where is my data stored in the Stromer OMNI app and how is it protected?

 

Stromer OMNI app: Data protection

See item 3 in the data protection guidelines for the Stromer OMNI app for specifications.

Where is the battery charge level of my Stromer bike displayed?

Stromer ST1 X, ST2, ST2 S (OMNI Interface): Display of the battery charge level

In the ride screen you have the option of tracking the battery charge level of your Stromer ST1 X, ST2 or ST2 S. The battery charge level is shown in the form of a bar and a percentage. If the battery is empty, your Stromer bike automatically switches off the motor and switches to no-assistance mode.

The bar above the battery charge level shows the current energy flow.  The screen helps you to ride an extended range in an energy-efficient manner. The longer the bar, the greater the energy flow. If the bar starts at the right and moves to the left, it shows the consumption. If the bar starts at the left and moves to the right, the bike is in regenerative braking mode. Current flows back into the battery. 

For your safety, a small portion of the battery energy is saved so that the basic functions of your Stromer bike can be guaranteed. The light and the display continue to function for about an hour if the battery is empty and the motor assistance is interrupted.

Why can't I export the statistics data from the Stromer OMNI app to a list?

This process is unfortunately not technically possible at the moment.

Why does the Stromer OMNI app show the incorrect location of my bike?

Stromer OMNI: Incorrect location display

The localization of a Stromer Speed Pedelec with an OMNI Interface C works using GNSS (GPS & GLONASS) as well as mobile communications (2G/3G).

If a GNSS position can be determined while the bike is switched on, this is transmitted to and displayed in the Stromer OMNI app. The currently valid GNSS position is visualized on the OMNI Interface C by means of a white pin icon in the status bar.

If no GNSS position can be determined, instead the position of the cell tower that is currently being used by the OMNI Interface is shown, if known. A currently valid mobile communications position is visualized on the OMNI Interface by means of a gray pin icon in the status bar.

With the position of the cell tower, however, it is not possible to determine the precise location of the bike. The Stromer OMNI app currently does not show a visualization of whether it is displaying a GNSS or a mobile communications position.

Before transmitting the GNSS position, OMNI firmware versions 4.1.3.3 to 4.2.3.8 validate whether this is within the transmission range of the currently used cell tower. If this is not the case, the position of the cell tower is transmitted. From firmware version 4.2.4.6, this validation is no longer performed as there is no guarantee that the position of the cell tower is correct.

Why does the total distance in the user statistics of the Stromer OMNI app differ from the one on the Stromer bike?

Total distance in user statistics and Stromer OMNI app

The statistics in the Stromer OMNI app provide a quick overview of the use of your Stromer s-pedelec. It is divided into “Bike Statistics” and “User Statistics”.

Bike statistics
Bike statistics shows the trip and total distance of your Stromer and corresponds to the display on the bike. The total distance driven is displayed, including rides of a possible previous owner.

User statistics
User statistics shows the history of your personal Stromer usage and includes all Stromer trips you have made as a registered user. So all your trips are added up, regardless of which of your Stromer bikes you have made them on. Rides that were made on your Stromer before you were registered as an owner on the vehicle are not considered. Therefore, the total distance of the Bike statistics may differ from the total distance of the User Statistics.

Note:
User statistics is automatically created from the status messages sent by the bike on a regular basis. If the bike has no cell network reception for a longer period of time although it is being ridden, there may be deviations in the distances actually covered and the distances shown per day.

How-to video for all Stromer models with OMNI Interface (ST1 X, ST2, ST2 S):

Why is the light button on my Stromer ST1 (OMNI Interface B) not working?

Stromer ST1 (OMNI Interface B): Light button is not working

As there is no independent daytime running light integrated on the Stromer ST1 (OMNI Interface B), the low beams must always be switched on. There is therefore no light button function of the controls.
