1 Doug Berger THE NEXT GENERATION TIMING AND DATA SYSTEM

2 X2 GIVES A WHOLE NEW PERSPECTIVE TO RACING NEW! THE NEXT GENERATION MYLAPS SYSTEM MYLAPS introduces the world s first timing and data system that offers the possibility to measure and publish more race data than just lap times: the X2 system. The X2 system is the next generation MYLAPS platform and offers extensive insights in race activity, track status and system performance. X2 is the perfect system to collect and publish data to and from racers, timekeepers and spectators through the innovative 2-way communication technology and X2 cloud. The Software Development Kit which is included with the X2 system offers extensive opportunities to develop customized software and applications based on official race and track data. STATE OF THE ART HARDWARE MEETS TOP-NOTCH SOFTWARE The X2 system has an all-new and robust design and includes newly developed portable decoders and servers. The system is built on a new and highly advanced infrastructure and can be used for multiple (motorized) sports. The system runs on top-notch software, based on the well-known Orbits software: Orbits 5. Orbits 5 is dedicated for X2 and available in three editions: Basic, Standard and Advanced. All editions feature an intuitive interface which makes it easy to use. Also third party software is available for X2. OPENS UP A NEW WORLD OF POSSIBILITIES

3 BRINGS MORE BENEFITS TO THE WORLD OF RACING SUPPORTS MULTI-LOOP SETUPS 2-WAY COMMUNICATION The X2 system brings 2-way communication to the race track: data is not only transmitted from the REMOTE SUPPORT The X2 system is characterized by the high build quality and A multi-loop set-up makes sector timing at the track possible. Race data can be segmented for each sector allowing racers to focus and improve on specific X2 transponders to the X2 system, but it will be possible to send vital race data back to the car, which can be displayed through onboard race displays. ease of use. Still, issues may occasionally occur. When connected to the Internet, online support via the X2 Cloud is at hand. parts of the track, or even zoom in on a particular chicane or turn. ONE SYSTEM FOR ALL SPORTS With the X2 system it is possible to time all motorized sports, like car, motorbike, kart and MX racing*. This makes it possible to expand timing services to other markets. *one transponder type per session AUTOMATIC UPLOAD TO MYLAPS.COM The X2 system automatically uploads practice data to a personal MYLAPS account on mylaps.com Synchronization of multiple timelines will be easy via the X2 system. The server has an integrated switch which makes networking easy. LIVE TIMING X2 enables live timing which makes it easier to broadcast real-time race data. Data can be published on displays on the track, on websites or via mobile apps and third party applications. TRACK DIAGNOSTICS AND REMOTE CONTROL The X2 system offers insight to system performance. Diagnostics can be accessed and controlled remotely when connected to the Internet via the X2 Cloud. Timekeepers are able to set-up and monitor the system from everywhere: a perfect solution for checking in on free practice runs and race days. TRACK TEMPERATURE AND LOOP STATUS With track sensors (optional) installed at the track, it is possible to monitor track temperature and loop status. SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT KIT A Software Development Kit is available with the X2 system, which enables developers to build custom applications. To unlock the new benefits and make full use of the X2 system s capabilities, MYLAPS introduces the X2 Racer pack. This includes an X2 transponder and X2 key for racers. Current (non-x2 transponders) MYLAPS transponders are compatible with the X2 system for timekeeping purposes, but will not benefit from the all-new X2 features.

4 X2 SERVER The X2 Server is the beating heart of the system. All components are connected to and controlled from this core device. X2 RACER PACKAGE Every racer has an X2 transponder and X2 key installed, which sends its signal to the detection loop. X2 CLOUD X2 DECODER An X2 decoder collects data from the detection loops which capture the signals that are sent via the X2 transponder. The X2 Cloud collects and back-ups race data from X2 systems connected to the Internet. The X2 Clouds also offers access to the Software Development Kit.
