1. Introduction
1.1.

This manualThis user manual describes how to install, use and maintain the X2 Transponder.

1.2.

Intended use of the X2 Transponder

The main X2 Transponder components (X2 Transponder and X2 RaceKey) are mounted on a car, motorcycle,
kart or bike to measure lap times.

1.3.

Description of the X2 Transponder and X2 System

The track you are racing on has a MYLAPS system installed at the start and finish line and maybe atintermediate points along the track. The system picks up the signal sent out by the transponder mounted onyour vehicle. This signal is picked up by a loop installed in the track and lap times are measured. This way thesystem calculates your lap times and your exact race position. This data used for creating official race results
and can be published to mylaps.com in your personal MYLAPS account.
The X2 Transponder consists of two main components: The X2 Transponder and the X2 RaceKey. Two different
X2 Transponder configurations are available: Rechargeable – no cabling between components (transponder – can be eventually charged byconnecting the X2 RaceKey via a USB cable)
 Direct power (DP)– all components are connected via cabling to a vehicle 12 VDC supply
To activate the X2 Transponder, a subscription first needs to be downloaded onto the X2 RaceKey, andsecondly the X2 RaceKey and transponder need to be physically connected to complete the activation.
Beforehand, the X2 Transponder needs to be registered in your MYLAPS account.

1.4.

4.4.

Reactivate the X2 RaceKey and X2 Transponder
To ensure the functionality of your X2 Transponder, reactivate it periodically with the X2
RaceKey (at least once every 5 days). When the transponder is not reactivated, it will stop
sending out its transponder number, and the subscription indicator light will flash red 5 times
per second.

During a race, keep the direct power X2 RaceKey in its mount to ensure it stays activated.

Reactivate a rechargeable X2 Transponder by sliding the X2 RaceKey onto the back of the transponder andconnect it with the USB cable to a computer (this is also how you recharge the transponder).
For Direct Power transponders make sure you slide the X2 RaceKey into the RaceKey Mount before every race.

5. Installation
Before mounting the X2 Transponder components, always first register and activate your product - seesection 4.
Make sure the X2 Transponder has a clear view to the track. Metal or carbon fibre underneaththe transponder could block the signal.
Do not attach the transponder near the engine or the exhaust due to heat and vibrations.
Do not attach the transponder near high current AC wiring and/or systems e.g. KERS or otherelectric motors, xenon lights.

3. Connect the X2 RaceKey mount as follows: Connect power cable connector to the X2 RaceKey mount and connect the open end wires to a
12 VDC supply in your vehicle (check the cable and vehicle wiring specifications for correctconnection). The brown cable is 12V and the Blue cable is Gnd. The black and white cable can beignored.
 Connect the connector cable to the X2 Transponder and feed it to the connector on the RaceKey
mount.
 Mount the X2 RaceKey mount in sight of the driver on the dashboard or steering.

4. Insert the X2 RaceKey in the RaceKey Mount: During startup all three indicator lights will flash various colors.
 After startup the “Subscription” indicator light will blink green (or red if the subscription is not
active) before it turns off.
