8 Parts & Features Lynx Computer Kit: The Lynx Computer Kit comes packaged with several accessories for quick and easy installation. Please refer to the installation guidesheet for tips on installing to specific machines. Docking Station Main Computer Body Installation Pack Power Cable Optional Remote Sensor Cable 6

9 Parts & Features Backlight: Lynx is equipped with a backlight for easy viewing during night-time operation. When connected to the vehicle s power vsystem, Lynx will light up with all five LED s. If running off its own internal battery, Lynx will light up with one LED. When connected to the vehicle s 12 volt system, Lynx will remain lit as long as it senses wheel movement. After 5 minutes of inactivity Lynx shuts off the backlight. Press any button or move the wheels and Lynx will light up again. If Lynx is running off its own internal battery, it will only stay lit for 3 seconds. TO ACTIVATE BACKLIGHT MANUALLY, PRESS OR. 7

10 Optional Remote: Lynx has an optional handlebar mounted remote. It allows the rider to easily access computer functions while riding. The remote also allows Lynx to access its advanced functions: Enduro & Lap Timer Modes*. Parts & Features *Lynx does not require the optional remote to perform Normal Mode functions. Please contact your local TrailTech dealer for more information on the optional Lynx Remote Switch or visit 8 Optional Dashboard: Lynx has an optional aluminum billet guard dashboard. Places computer in optimal viewing position. Provides protection in harsh riding conditions. Please contact your local TrailTech dealer for more information on the optional Lynx Dashboard or visit www. TrailTech.net.

11 Reset Button: Use of the Reset Button will erase all saved data and settings except Odometer and Accumulated Ride Time. Parts & Features The reset button is intended to reset Lynx if the screen freezes up. Press it once and the screen will restore itself. User settings will need to be re-entered. Internal Battery: Your Lynx computer has an internal 3.0V watch type battery (#CR2032). Under normal use, this battery will last approximately one year. The computer and its optional remote switch can both be run from this battery alone. To conserve battery power, the backlight will stay lit for only 3 seconds before shutting off automatically. To change the battery, unscrew the battery cap on the back of the computer. Make sure the positive side of the battery is facing up when replaced. REPLACE WITH BATTERY MODEL NUMBER #CR2032 9

12 Installation Method 1) Bar Mount: Place bolts as shown in picture. Link Arm Remember to use provided nuts when placing bolts. Use the provided strip of black rubber to provide the clamp with a non-slip surface. Tip: Remove plastic Link Arm for a more stable install. The Link Arm is not required. Typical Motorcycle Installation Shown with Bar Mounted Computer & Optional Remote 10

13 Method 2) Billet Dashboard Mount Installation Typical ATV Installation Shown with TrailTech Billet Dashboard & TrailTech Medium Bend ATV X-Bar Handlebars The Optional Billet Aluminum Dashboard will protect Lynx from impacts and place it in the optimal viewing position. Mounting varies between vehicle models. Please contact your local TrailTech dealer for more information on the optional Billet Dashboard or visit 11

14 Method 3) Flat/Surface Mount: There are two screw holes on the back of the docking station (see picture.) Use the included screws to mount to any flat surface (e.g. stock odometer mounting bracket or body panel.) Installation Make sure that the cables will not be chafed or damaged in their mounting location. Docking Station: Lynx easily slides on and off the docking station. Simply slide the computer down until it clicks into place. To remove Lynx from the docking station, press the clip down gently and slide Lynx up and off. 12

15 12 Volt Systems: If possible, install Lynx to a 12 volt system. Installation The backlight function will stay lit while riding at 5 times the brightness over the builtin battery. The pace LED s will be activated for Enduro and Lap Timer Modes. Lynx is polarity independent. Either lead can go to the positive or negative post on the battery. OPTION 1) BATTERY WIRED Connect the power cables directly into the vehicle s 12 volt battery. OPTION 2) SYSTEM TAP As an alternative to running wires all the way to the battery, it is possible to tap into the electrical system. Two good points are at the lights or the ignition, but anywhere in the circuit will work. MX Bikes: Motocross bikes do not have 12 volt power. For connection to an MX bike, connect power leads to ignition power leads from the stator. Improper connection will not damage Lynx. If connected incorrectly, backlight will simply not turn on. 13

16 ATV Sensor/Magnet Installation: Lynx needs two things to be able to collect data: 1. A magnet placed on the spinning part of the wheel. 2. The sensor, placed on the non-moving part of the wheel. The magnet spins around tripping the sensor switch each time data collected lets Lynx calculate distance and time. Installation Magnetic Bolt Installation ATV Rotor The magnet gets installed on the brake rotor because it spins with the wheel. Typically the provided magnetic bolt can simply replace a stock rotor bolt (see above picture). If that doesn t work, there is a spare magnet that can be glued in a hole on the brake rotor. (JB Weld or a similar slow-cure epoxy works well.) After the magnet is in, the sensor is placed on a non-spinning part of the wheel. 14 C-Bracket Installation ATV Left Axle The sensor typically is placed on either the provided C-bracket or the ATV metal rotor shield.

17 Motorcycle Sensor/Magnet Installation: Motorcycles, like ATVs, need a magnet placed on the spinning part of the wheel and the sensor installed to a non-spinning part. The magnet typically gets bolted or glued to the brake rotor. Installation The sensor wire should come from the back of the computer, be cable-tied to the brake line as it travels Magnet About to Pass Under Sensor down the front forks, then attached to the brake caliper. Lynx can tell how far and fast it s travelled by keeping track of how many times the magnet passes under the sensor switch. Optimum Magnet Rotation Path Many Motorcycles and ATVs have special installation procedures. Refer to the provided installation insert for specific instructions for your machine or visit 15

18 Measure Wheel Size Overview: You will use the wheel size number when setting up the computer for your machine. Use Method 1, 2 or 3. Method 1) Easy Ruler Method: Find the circumference of front wheel by measuring its diameter in millimeters. Multiply the Wheel Diameter by The result is your wheel size. Wheel Size = Wheel Diameter(mm) x 3.14 Diameter(mm) x 3.14 Method 2) Rolling Measurements: On a flat surface, mark the tire sidewall and the ground with a marking pen. Roll the wheel until the mark on the tire completes one revolution and is back on the ground. Mark the ground at this location. Measure the distance between the marks on the ground and convert the measurement to mm (multiply inches by 25.4). Use this number for your wheel size. For accuracy, the riders weight should be on the bike when making this measurement. 16

19 Measure Wheel Size Method 3) Distance Measurements: For the most accurate measurement, use wheel size measurement from above or set the wheel size to 2109mm (motorcycle), 1675mm(ATV) and follow this procedure: 1. Find a length of road where the distance is known. 2. Ride the distance and note the distance the computer reads (for example, the road is known to be 5 miles and the computer shows 4.95 miles). 3. Use the numbers to solve for X in the following equation: (current wheel size) (current miles) X = 5.00 or (new wheel size) = (actual miles) 4.95X = 2109 * X = X = X = Enter number found from the above method in your computer. My Wheel Size: 17

20 Data Setting Mode Overview: Data Setting Mode is very important for Lynx to operate correctly.

38 Enduro Mode Frequently Asked Questions: WHAT IS MOTORCYCLE ENDURO RACING EXACTLY?* Enduro racing brings nature, man and machine together in a grand adventure to find the best rider. Enduro racing combines the main skills used in other major forms of motorcycling: Speedway, Road Racing, Motocross & Trials. Putting in a full day of work, the riders navigate through trails, old roads, tracks, and wherever else a motorcycle can go. The course gets broken into many checkpoints where the riders should arrive at the specified time. Riders get penalized points for each minute early or late they check in. Riders getting to the checkpoints early can wait until the specified time before checking in and continuing on. While waiting they perform maintenance on their bikes and get refueled. During the day between normal checkpoint legs are the special stages. This is where most of the exciting action happens. Riders are penalized points for every second it takes them to complete the special stage. They must go as fast as possible in an all-out bid to win. The rider who gets the least amount of points for the day wins. 36 *Rules Will Vary

39 Enduro Mode Enduro Mode Example: DISTANCE RESETS ROUTE CHART SPECIFIES A MILEAGE JUMP OF 0.5 MILES TO 92.5 MILES. The race is underway. Delta Timer (DT) is at -10 seconds. Adjustable Average Speed (AAS) is set to 20 M/H. Both LED s are flashing, indicating rider is on his minute. The rider needs to change the Adjustable Distance from 92.0 to Enter Enduro Data Setting Mode by pressing. Increment from 92.0 to 92.5 by pressing five times. Return to main Enduro Mode screen by pressing twice. The Delta Timer (DT) accounts for the distance advance. Note steady green LED indicating rider is ahead of their minute. Discussion: Rider makes the distance adjustment. The computer calculates that the rider has advanced 1:30 ahead ((0.5/20*60). The computer adds this one time adjustment to the current Delta Timer (DT). Adjustable Average Speed (AAS) has not changed, and remains at 20. Note: Delta Timer assumes that being on your minute means there is a sixty second window. When Delta Timer (DT) shows 00:00, this means the rider is at the top of their minute. If Delta Timer (DT) shows -00:59, they are at the bottom of their minute. 37

40 Lap Timer Mode Lap Timer Mode can only be entered with Remote Switch. Overview: This enhanced feature set is designed for race riders and time trials. Hit the lap counter button each time around the track compare lap times on the fly with colored pace lights, or wait and review precise lap information afterwards. Enter & Exit Lap Timer Mode: TO ENTER OR EXIT LAP TIMER MODE, HOLD + FOR 3 SECONDS. A circle appears to show Lynx is in Lap Timer Mode. 38

41 Lap Timer Mode Lap Timer Screen: In Lap Timer Mode, Lynx displays: Speed (SPD) Pace LEDs Distance (DST) Lap Counter Stop Watch (TT) Note: Pace LED s will only light if the computer is connected to vehicle power. 39

42 Lap Timer Mode Pace Lights: Lynx keeps track of how fast each lap has been run. At the beginning of Lap 3, the red and green LEDs will start lighting up. Green means faster, red means slower. Solid means that the lap was faster or slower, but a blinking light means it was either the fastest or slowest lap yet. RED LED GREEN LED LED comparison information is accurate to the second. When the rider completes two identical laps (down to the second), neither LED will light up. 40

43 Lap Timer Mode Pace Light Examples: Example 1: Rider completes Lap 1 in 12 minutes and completes Lap 2 in 9 minutes. At the beginning of Lap 3, the green LED will flash for five seconds. Second lap was both faster than Lap 1 and the fastest yet recorded. Example 2: Rider completes Lap 2 in 9 minutes and completes Lap 3 in 11 minutes. At the beginning of Lap 4, the red LED will light for five seconds. Example 3: Rider completes Lap 3 in 11 minutes and completes Lap 4 in 10 minutes. At beginning of Lap 5, green LED will light for five seconds to indicate Lap 4 was faster than Lap 3 but not the fastest lap yet. A steady on green light means the last lap was fast, but not the fastest yet. 41

44 Lap Timer Mode RIDER AT DEPARTURE POINT: Reset Lap Timer Data: Reset Lap Timer Data at the beginning of each race so new information can be gathered. Lap Timer Data can only be reset from within Lap Timer Mode. Lap Timer Data includes: Lap Counter, Average Speed (AS), Distance (DST), and Stop Watch (TT).
