Device Functions
General Description
The Boomerang Cyclotrac V2 combines a real-time GPS tracker with a
motion-activated alarm to protect bicycles from theft.
The Cyclotrac is controlled wirelessly through the Boomerang Bike smartphone
app. The app allows the user to monitor its location, set alarms, track trips, and
perform other tasks. The app sends control commands over 4G cell networks.
Weather and impact protection is provided by an ABS plastic housing. It
measures approximately 5-¾” (146 mm) in length and 1-½” (81mm) in width. It
can mount beneath the bottle cage of a bicycle with tamper-resistant screws.
Up to a week of battery life is provided by an internal rechargeable battery. The
battery is charged using a micro-USB port on the side of the enclosure. A
recessed reset switch is located next to the USB port.
Status indications are provided by four LEDs on the top of the enclosure, and a
charge indicator LED in the USB charge port.

Basic Operation
The Cyclotrac is always on. It has two different modes: wake or sleep.
Wake mode
The Cyclotrac wakes up when it senses movement, such as a light tap or
jolt. The gear and crosshair lights will flash when the Cyclotrac is awake.
When awake, the Cyclotrac:
●Tracks its GPS position and logs its location in the app.
●Logs a trip, a record of its movement.
●Listens for commands sent from the Boomerang app, like
arming and disarming the alarm.
●Sounds the alarm if the alarm is armed.
NOTE: The Cyclotrac must be awake to be controlled with the app.
Sleep mode
The Cyclotrac enters sleep mode when it detects no movement within the
last two minutes it has been awake. It will also enter sleep mode if it
exhausts its battery.
In sleep mode, the Cyclotrac only monitors for movement. All other
actions are performed when awake.
When it detects movement, the Cyclotrac exits sleep mode. If the battery
is exhausted, it will remain in sleep mode until recharged.

Indicator LEDs
The Cyclotrac has four indicator LEDs and a charge LED.
