The Advanced CID is a monochrome organic light emitting diode (OLED) on the back of the X2 CEW that provides information about the CEW. When the safety switch is shifted into the up (ARMED) position, the CID will display the cartridge bays and battery status.
Cartridge Icons
 |
Left to right: 15-, 25-, and 35-foot live cartridges. These cartridges have not been deployed. |
 |
Training cartridges (blue blast doors) will display with a yellow icon. Loading training cartridges into the X2 CEW will not affect the CEW’s ability to deploy. If both live and training cartridges are loaded in the X2 CEW, both firing bays remain active. Loading a training cartridge into an X2 CEW will not lock a live cartridge that is also loaded in the CEW. |
 |
After a cartridge has been expended, the cartridge deployed icon is displayed. |
 |
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 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 the X2 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. Do NOT attempt to use the CEW. The CEW may need to be repaired or replaced. See the Product Returns section in the X2 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 for instructions on loading and unloading Smart cartridges from an X2 CEW. |
 |
Invalid Battery Pack. If you see a blinking exclamation point and battery icon, this indicates that the CEW did not recognize the battery correctly. Remove the battery pack and reinsert it. If the error is still present, try another battery pack. If the icon still displays, this usually indicates that something has happened to the battery connector inside the CEW and the CEW should be serviced. See the Product Returns section in the X2 manual for instructions. |
 |
An APPM battery pack is installed in the CEW. See the Automatic Shut-Down Performance Power Magazine (APPM) Battery Pack section in this manual for more information. |
 |
A TASER CAM HD recorder is installed in the CEW. See the TASER CAM HD Operating Manual for more information. |
 |
A TASER CAM HD recorder with the automatic shutoff (AS) feature is installed in the CEW. See the TASER CAM HD Operating Manual for more information. |
 |
An SPPM battery pack is installed in the CEW. |
 |
An SPPM battery pack is installed in the CEW, and the CEW is in Mute Mode. |
 |
When you plug the USB connection into the X2 CEW, the USB connection status icon and the device serial number will appear. |
 |
When there is an SPPM transmission in the safe mode or the SPPM is connecting for updates, the warning DO NOT REMOVE BATTERY is displayed. |
Operating Mode Icons
 |
This is the icon for the Semi-Automatic mode. The CEW is shipped in Semi-Automatic mode. |
 |
This is the icon for the Manual mode. |
Battery Level Icons
When the safety switch is in the up (ARMED) position, the CID will display the percentage of battery power remaining. Remaining capacity will display in 20-percent increments.
When the battery level drops below 20 percent, Axon recommends that the battery pack be replaced.
 |
When the battery capacity is at 1–10 percent, the CID will flash the warning LO BATT on the CID when the safety switch is cycled to the up (ARMED) position. |
 |
If the battery capacity is at 1–10 percent, and the CEW is being discharged, this icon displays in the lower-right portion the CID. |
 |
When the TASER CAM HD battery is depleted, the CID will flash the warning RECHARGE BATTERY on the CID when the safety switch is cycled to the up (ARMED) position. |
 |
When using any PPM type battery that is depleted, the CID will flash the warning CHANGE BATTERY on the CID when the safety switch is cycled to the up (ARMED) position. |
Sample CID Displays
The CID below shows the X2 CEW loaded with a 25-foot and another cartridge. The 25-foot cartridge is selected. (The leftmost, active cartridge is always selected by default.) The battery is 61–80 percent full, and the Semi-Automatic mode icon displays. There is a cartridge fault.
The CID below shows an X2 CEW with a battery 61–80 percent full. Only 1 cartridge is loaded, and the Semi-Automatic mode icon displays.
The CID below shows the Semi-Automatic mode icon and a battery that is 41–60 percent full. The first cartridge has been deployed, and the second cartridge is selected.
The CID below shows the Semi-Automatic mode icon and a battery that is 81–100 percent full, loaded with 25-and 35-foot cartridges. The 25-foot cartridge is selected; it will be deployed when the trigger is pulled.
The CID below shows the Semi-Automatic mode icon, with two 25-foot training cartridges, and a battery that is 21–40 percent full. The left cartridge is selected.
The CID below shows the Semi-Automatic mode icon, with one expended cartridge, one 25-foot cartridge that is currently selected, a battery at 41–60 percent capacity, and an APPM battery pack installed.
The CID below shows the manual mode icon, with one 25-foot cartridge that is currently selected, a 35-foot cartridge, a battery at 81–100 percent capacity, and a TASER CAM HD recorder installed.
The CID below shows the Semi-Automatic mode icon, with one 25-foot cartridge that is currently selected, a 35-foot cartridge, a battery at 81–100 percent capacity, and a Signal PPM (SPPM) installed.
