Features

If no cartridge is loaded in the cartridge bay, the space otherwise occupied by a
cartridge icon will be blank.

If something is wrong with the cartridge, the cartridge bay error icon is displayed.
The cartridge might not deploy. See the Load the Smart Cartridges section in this
manual for instructions on loading and unloading Smart cartridges from an X2 CEW.

When the CEW is in the Semi-Automatic mode, the loaded cartridge icon indicates
that the next trigger pull will deploy a cartridge.

System Status Icons

The system status icons are designed to inform you of a fault in the X2 CEW. It is a fault indicator only, and it

is the user’s responsibility to heed the fault indicators, conduct proper maintenance and repair, and ensure

that the CEW is working properly before any use. Failure to heed the system status icons could cause serious

injury or death.

All faults are recorded in the X2 CEW’s Engineering log.

Major Fault indication. A yellow triangle in the upper-right side of the CID indicates
that the logging or date and time functions are not working properly. The CEW will
still produce an electrical output (e.g., the CEW should still arc and deploy cartridges),
but the accountability functions are compromised.

Shift the safety switch to the down (SAFE) position and then to the up (ARMED)
position; the fault may clear.

Whether the fault clears or not, it will be recorded in the Engineering log. If the fault
did not clear, the CEW may need to be repaired or replaced. See the Product Returns
section in this manual for instructions.

Critical Fault indication. A yellow stop sign in the upper-right side of the CID indicates
a system failure.

Critical faults are rare. Shift the safety switch to the down (SAFE) position and then
to the up (ARMED) position; the fault may clear.

If the fault does not clear, do NOT attempt to use the CEW. The CEW may need to be
repaired or replaced. See the Product Returns section in this manual for instructions.

NOTE: If a fault icon appears in the position normally associated with the cartridge

status icon, this usually indicates a fault with a cartridge and not necessarily a critical

CEW fault. Replace the cartridge and see if the icon goes away. See the Unloading

section in this manual for instructions on loading and unloading Smart cartridges

from an X2 CEW.
