INTRODUCTION

For over 80 years, Riddell has been the recognized leader in helmet technology and innovation. Founded

with the mission to make sports equipment safer, better, and easier to use, Riddell continues to address the

evolving protective equipment needs of the athlete. Today, Riddell equipment is seen on football fields from

coast-to-coast, protecting every level of player—from youth athletes to NFL professionals.

Our commitment to the Sideline Response System™ (SRS™) is a natural extension of our intimate

involvement with team sports and our core competence in player protection. SRS is an interconnected matrix

of advanced technologies that together define the next generation in head impact exposure monitoring.

Concussions and other MTBI’s are sometimes called “invisible injuries” because symptoms may not appear

for 24 hours (or later) after a head injury. The athlete may not immediately have impaired motor skills nor

be aware of the injury, making detection and evaluation extremely difficult for sideline personnel.

The Sideline Response System monitors and records head impact exposure during play and alerts sideline

personnel that an atypical exposure has occurred. It improves the efficiency and effectiveness of all sideline

staff, and it encourages the consistent application of appropriate practices by qualified personnel.

You must read this User Guide completely before set-up and use of the Sideline Response System. If you

need assistance with use of the system, please contact Riddell SRS Customer Support at (800) 275-5338.

MxEncoder

The MxEncoder, Figure 7, is the impact sensor and wireless radio worn

by the athlete. Each MxEncoder is installed in a player’s helmet and

contains six single-axis ±250g accelerometers that record head impacts

as they occur and transmit that information in near real-time to the

Sideline Controller. MxEncoders are designed to fit comfortably within

the helmet with no modifications needed, and to retain the NOCSAE

certification as installed.

A 3.6V rechargeable NiMH Battery Pack, Figure 8, is used in each

MxEncoder and typically holds a charge for one week during normal use.

IMPORTANT: Only SRS MxEncoder Battery Packs should be used to power

MxEncoders

The MxEncoder has an automatic On/Off switch that turns on once the helmet is

placed on the player’s head and shuts off when the helmet is removed. The switch

uses proximity based sensing that determines when there is a head in the helmet.

A hand may also be used to turn the switch on. The switch automatically turns off

the unit after it no longer senses the presence of a head in the helmet.

MxEncoders must be installed in the appropriate model/size helmet according to

the chart below.

SRS Field Case

The SRS Field Case, Figure 9, is a protective carrier designed to provide

convenient storage for all system components, protect electronics from

adverse weather conditions, and make the SRS easy to use on and off the

field.

The Field Case is configured with internal power outlets and data transfer

connections. Power is provided to the case via an external plug on the left

side of the case. External 120v AC power is required while collecting data

on the field.

The Field Case is water resistant and contains a ventilation system. This

means that the lid of the case can be closed while it is raining and still collect

data and transmit alerts.

Depending on the system purchased, the SRS Field Case is one of three

models: 900MHz only, WiFi only, or Dual Mode (900MHz & WiFi).

SRS Computer

The SRS Computer is a laptop computer that is configured for a specific SRS team to record all head

impact data and allow system setup and maintenance. The computer uses a Windows 7 operating

system.

Sideline Controller

The Sideline Controller, Figure 10, transmits and receives information to each

900MHz MxEncoder. The Sideline Controller relays this information to the SRS

Computer. The Sideline Controller can simultaneously communicate with up

to 100 MxEncoders up to 150 yards away. Power is supplied through a

waterproof USB connection on the outside of the Field Case. The Sideline

Controller is water resistant and can remain in operation during all weather

conditions. Available in 900MHz only and Dual Mode Field Case models.

Access Point

The Access Point, Figure 11, transmits and receives information to each WiFi

MxEncoder. The Access Point relays this information to the SRS Computer. The

Access Point can simultaneously communicate with up to 100 MxEncoders up to

150 yards away. Power is supplied through a waterproof USB connection on the

outside of the Field Case. The Access Point is water resistant and can remain in

operation during all weather conditions. Available in WiFi only and Dual Mode Field

Case models.

Alert System

The Alert System consists of two parts:

Alert Pager: This is carried by sideline staff and displays the player

number, impact magnitude, alert type and impact time for any impact

that is above a player’s customizable alert threshold. Multiple Alert

Pagers can be used with the same SRS. The Alert Pagers have a

communication range of 1/8th of a mile.

Alert Pager Transmitter: This is housed in the base of the Field Case and

transmits valuable alert information to all available Alert Pagers.

Figure 12: Alert Pager

P/N R64216 v3.1 Page | 9

SRS Software

The SRS comes with two software applications, RedZone and HIT Analyzer. These software applications work

together to allow you to create sessions, manage roster lists, collect impact data, monitor system

performance, and analyze player and team impact data.

RedZone

Used off the field (web based)

Manage roster list and equipment

assignments

Manage sessions

View head impact exposure data for every

player

Create detailed summary Player Reports

HIT Analyzer

Used on the field

Collect head impact data in real time from all

active players

Make roster and session adjustments as

needed while on the field

Provides system functionality status and

session summary statistics

Battery Charger

The Battery Charger is capable of recharging up to 40 MxEncoder battery packs simultaneously. Typical

charging time is 4 -6 hours for a drained battery. The charger has a built in protection circuit that

automatically shuts off the charging cycle once a battery has been fully charged to prevent damage. There

are two ventilation fans that turn on when the charger is powered on to prevent the charger from over-

heating, and the charger also has an over-temperature sensor to shut off the charging cycle if a battery is

damaged. The charger should only be used indoors with the lid open to prevent from over-heating. The

charger is only to be used with corresponding Riddell SRS NiMH battery packs (P/N R64207).
