I waited a while but the OP wasn't online so I decided to explain what it was because I was familiar with it and commute with mine too. Then a few others chimed in with an attitude of disbelief. Why did that happen guys? I should have stopped trying right then. The thread was wasted and of no value.
Welcome to bike forums. It took about 1,000 posts before I figured out how things work.
After a thread reaches about 15 posts I think we're doing good if a 1/3 of them manage to be on topic.
