Chip2Go

Quick Reference Guide

Chip2Go allows you to program RACE RESULT raw transponders ready to stick

directly to bibs.

Raw transponders are fed in to the Chip2Go from a roll, encoded to the required

number and fed out ready to easily remove and stick directly to a bib.

The unit features a chip check antenna on the front side to easily check a

transponder's code.

Number entry can be achieved through either:

•Touchscreen keypad entry (with optional sequential count-up / count-down)

•USB number pad

•USB barcode scanner

The Chip2Go will only work with RACE RESULT raw transponders, these can be

purchased in either single or duo configuration. The machine will automatically

recognise these and will program either a single tags or two identical tags according

to the roll.

System Setup

Screw in the power cable to the rear of the unit and the Chip2Go will power on

automatically.

Chip2Go machines are shipped with a 15v power supply using the same connector

as Loop Boxes and Track Boxes. Note that a Loop Box power supply only provides

12v, the Chip2Go will still run but motor speed will be reduced.

To prepare transponders first raise the mounting arm by pulling the black quick

release latch and pulling the arm up until the latch clicks back in to lock the arm in

place, the roll then fits on the arm.

Push back the silver brake plate and feed the plastic liner through the upper section

of the unit until the first transponder is just visible below the red plate but ensure that

the transponder does not cover the white programming antenna. If the

programming antenna is already covered by a transponder then this

transponder will be fed past the antenna and cannot be used.

On the display push Feed, or manual feed forward, and push the liner in to the slit

below the programming antenna until the rollers catch the plastic liner and pull it

through. The machine will keep feeding forward until the first transponder is

positioned over the progamming antenna.

Once finished you can tear off the excess liner by using the serrated cutter on the

lower slit, you should cut the liner here with a transponder still in place as the excess

liner is required to feed in to the system at the next start-up.

On the display select Switch Mode and then press manual feed reverse to feed the

liner back out of the lower section, if the liner was not cut then it may require multiple

presses to fully remove.

The transponders can now be pulled out from the upper secction, the roll removed

and the mounting arm returned to it's transport position. To power down the unit

simply remove the power supply.

Barcode Scanner Configuration

When using the barcode scanner for the first time it is necessary to scan the included

QR code in order to set the scanner's configuration to correctly work with Chip2Go

machines / barcodes. This should be done once for each individual barcode

scanner.

The QR code is attached below and should be printed out and scanned.

Transponder Number Entry

Touchscreen Keypad (Single Number)

Using the built-in touchscreen display you can program the machine to encode either

an individual number or a series of numbers counting up or down from a starting

number.

When the system is first turned on it will display the number keypad, simply type your

desired chip number and hit enter, the transponder will be encoded to that number

and the number on the screen will automatically increase by one.

To return to this mode press STOP from count up/ count down, or BACK from the

mode selection screen.

Count Up / Count Down

The system can continuously encode chips in a series counting up or down from a

number, to do this first enter the desired starting number on the touchscreen

keypad then press SWITCH MODE and select either n count up or n count

down from the mode selection screen depending on your requirement.

Once pressed the machine will immediately start encoding with the first number in the

sequence, once this transponder is removed the machine will then automatically

encode the following number and feed this transponder forward.

This will continue counting up or down continuously, until the number reaches

9,999,999 or 0 respectively. To manually stop the system simply push

the STOP button on the display before removing the final transponder you require.

External Input (Keypad / Barcode Scanner)

You can connect a USB number keypad (supplied) or USB barcode scanner

(optional) to the Chip2Go as an external input device.

Any USB Keypad may be used, the supplied one was chosen for it's inclusion of a

backspace, however a * will also act as a backspace. Only the barcode scanner

available directly from race result is officially supported, this also includes the mount

to attach to the unit.

To use an external input press Switch Mode and select external scanner keypad.

Simply enter the desired number with the keypad and press enter or scan the

corresponding barcode to encode the transponder. The system will display the

previous number which was encoded on the display.

If using a barcode scanner the barcode must be the correct format. All bibs

purchased from race result with the standard barcode will be compatible, if using your

own barcodes then check the Barcode Format is correct.

Barcode Format

Chip2Go machines will only read barcodes using Code 128 standard, other

barcode formats will not be read correctly.

Barcodes must use a start code with "#" followed by the bib number followed by "~",

the bib number will stop being read at the ~ character and any characters after this

point will be ignored. If ordering bibs directly from race result, ensure to request

Chip2Go barcodes to be included.

You can also use barcodes with numbers ONLY, the whole number will be used as

the bib number.

For example:

301

#301~

#301~PARTY

#301~~12345~~

will all return bib number 301.

Using the following will return nothing:

#301

#301PARTY

Other Barcode Types

Chip2Go machines can work with any type of 2D barcode (such as QR codes), but

the scanner and returned data must meet certain requirements. No official support is

given for third-party device uses or barcode setup.

Requirements:

•Scanner uses USB HID specification

•Barcode is in the format #1234~ as per the standard Barcode Format

•Data returned from the scanner is terminated with the enter key

USB Stick Chip File

From firmware version 1.0.0 the Chip2Go has the ability to read a chip file from a

USB drive, this file should be stored as a .txt file.

Within the file numbers can be entered in different ways, different methods should be

separated by a new line.

- Simple number entry e.g. 1

- Number range e.g. 1-100

- Comma separated numbers e.g. 1,2,3

To use the chip file simply insert the USB drive in to one of the ports of the Chip2Go

and press Switch Mode and select USB List File. This will then list the available .txt

files which you can select.

Once the file has been opened all numbers in the file will be listed in the same order

(some grouping may occur), so you can choose where in the list to start from in case

of continuing a range or with multiple machines running. The Chip2Go will then

encode all subsequent numbers in the file in the same order.

Transponder Check Antenna

The check antenna on the front side of the Chip2Go can be used to check the chip

code of any passive race result transponder.

Simply hold the transponder in front of the check antenna and the chip code will be

displayed at the bottom of the display.

race result AG Joseph-von-Fraunhofer-Straße 11, 76327 Pfinztal Germany

+49 (721) 961 409 01 [email protected]

If 2 or more transponders of the same code are detected then "Number x 2" will be

displayed.

If 2 or more transponders with different codes are detected then "multiple tags" will

be displayed.

Firmware Update

The current version is always shown in the top left screen corner.

How to Update

When running firmware is 0.9.9 or newer, the stick with the update must be inserted

prior to boot and the machine will ask you whether to update or not. After installing

the update, your Chip2Go will reboot and ask you again whether to update or not.

Unplug the USB drive now, then abort the message. You may be asked to install 2

further updates, which you can't abort. After installing these updates, your Chip2Go is

updated and can be used again.

Note: there must not be more than one firmware file on the USB drive. Also, make

sure your drive is formatted as either NTFS or FAT.

Cleaning instructions

The rubber rollers inside the Chip2Go can collect dust over time which in return can

lead to feeding issues. In this case the machine can be easily cleaned. For this

purpose we include a brush with every Chip2Go.

To do so put the machine next to the edge of a table and power it up. Remove any

tags that may still be in the machine.

Wet the brush slightly with some water or -in case of very greasy/oily dirt- some

rubbing alcohol. The brush however must not be soaking wet in ordert o prevent any

liquid from getting inside the machine.

Insert the brush into the lower slot as shown in the picture below. Putting it into the

upper slot might cause it to be pulled into the machine and damaged in the next step.

Press the „feed“ button on the touchscreen so the rollers start spinning. Push the

brush against the rollers and slightly scrub left and right. Repeat the procedure a

couple of times depending on the amount of dirt and clean the brush in between.

The machine does not need to be disassembled. The picture is just to show how the

brush is to be inserted.

If you need to use the machine immediately after cleaning you can let a paper towel

drive through the machine several times to dry the rollers. Do not try to hold the

paper towel with your hands since this might cause the towel to rip an get stuck in the

machine.
