Boomerang CycloTrac
Manual
The Boomerang Cyclotrac is a cloud based activity
monitor for bicyclists. When you get on the bike,
CycloTrac knows you’re there, gathers your data, and
uploads it to the cloud in real time. You focus on
enjoying your ride and the cycling experience, knowing
all of the data is there for you, all the time. No more
post�ride downloads or adding and removing hardware
from your bike. The anti�theft element of the CycloTrac
system has the potential to entirely change the mindset
of how often you use your bike or even what kind
of bike is purchased.
Register the CycloTrac at www.Boomerangbike.com
and install the mobile phone app. The mobile app is
the primary interface for setting and controlling the
CycloTrac.
The CycloTrac should be charged before use. Charging
is through the micro�USB port. The CycloTrac can be
connected to a wall charger, computer, or other USB
standard port with +5V power for charging. If the
battery is fully depleted, charging time can be up to
4 hours.
Operation On/Off
The natural state of the device is ‘asleep’. It wakes up
or ‘turns on’ with movement. If you want to record a
trip, go to the settings and turn on Auto-Start.
Mapping
When Auto Start is on activates continuous logging
and mapping. Mapping is automatic as long as the
bike is in motion and stops when the bike is still for 3
minutes. A trip will report path travelled, distance, trip
time, calories burned, elevation and more viewed in the
Dashboard on BoomerangBike.com. Data can also be
uploaded to third party apps such as Strava.
Set Alarm
1.
On the bottom of the app press Set Alarm.
2.
Slide to
activate. The arm icon will close and turn red. If the
bike is moved, an audible alarm will sound and the user
will receive a text message and email indicating
suspicious activity.
3.
The alarm function is turned off by
sliding the Deactivate icon OFF. After a few seconds
the alarm will open and the icon will turn from red to
OFF (blue).
Sound Alarm
To test alarm, arm the bike and move it. You should
hear an audible alarm and get a text message. Make
sure your unit is charged and the GPS and Alarm lights
are on.
For battery savings, the CycloTrac will shut down
(deep sleep mode) all non�essential functions if it is
not moved for about 3 minutes (default). The Cyclo-
Trac automatically wakes up by sensing motion.
The bike mounted CycloTrac is ready for use
once the yellow GPS light is flashing continuously.
The alarm function is still active, even when the
CycloTrac is in deep sleep. The user can park the
bike, set the alarm, and have the security of knowing
that the system will automatically wake upon
movement, sound the alarm, and provide text and
email notifications of tampering, weeks or even
months later.
Troubleshooting
If the unit seems unresponsive, make sure it is recharged
for 4 hours. If there is no response to movements follow
these steps:
1.
Make sure there is a full charge.
2.
Press
and hold Reset button for 3 seconds. LED’s should blink.
Restart successful.
3.
If Step 2 fails, activate Reset
Button 2 (in the small hole next to the USB port) by
pushing in a smalll paper clip or tack. LED’s should blink.

A CycloTrac helps deter theft by
being visible and reliable with the
addition of a good lock. Heavy-duty
U-locks and jacketed hardened
chain locks are ideal.

text messages when bike
