The Basics
Please read this User’s Guide completely before set-up and use of the HIT System. If you
need assistance with your first use of the system, please call Simbex Technical Support at
the number listed in the CONTACT INFORMATION section.
The HIT System™ is comprised of four
main
systems: the MXEncoders, the Sideline Receiver,
the Alert Pager, and the Computer. The Sideline
Receiver, Alert Pager, and Computer are all stored
within a protective Field Case. The MX Encoders
are installed inside Riddell VSR-4 and Revolution
football helmets, measure impacts as they occur on
the field, and transmit impact data to the Sideline
Receiver. The Sideline Receiver manages impact
information recorded by the MXEncoders and relays
it to the Computer, where the data is processed,
analyzed, and stored. When impacts matching
user selectable Suspect Impact Profiles (SIP’s) are
received, the Alert Pager System sends a signal to
the Alert Beeper, signaling sideline staff that a SIP
has occurred.
