EXPLORING YOUR ICOPY-X
The different
RFID Areas of the
iCopy-X
RFID Card Placement Area:
The red area as shown in the figure is the 125k low-frequency
card identification area. If it is a small keyfob card, it is recommended to
put the card in the red area of the transparent cover for the operation.
The blue area as shown above is the 13.56mhz high frequency card
identification area. If it is a keyfob size card, it is recommended to put the
card in the blue area of the transparent cover for operation.If it is a full-
size white card, it can be placed directly on the transparent cover or read
on the back.
TIP: The transparent cover is used to hold key fobs and small size cards
so they will not slide whilst reading. This also enables you to carry the
iCopy-X around whilst reading or decrypting

CLONING 101 ON ICOPY-X
How to quickly copy a token:
Step 1: Place the original token in the correct position on the device.
Step 2: Click the "S/R/W" button or select "Auto Copy" in the
menu to start the automatic copy process.
Step 3: When the prompt "Read successful!" appears, replace the
original token with the UID token.
Step 4: Clicking the "S/R/W" button again will automatically write the
new token.
Step 5: When the prompt "Write and verify successful!" appears,
it means that you have copied a token successfully.
TIP: When encountering an unsupported token, you will not be able to
proceed to the next step. Some tokens with encryption will
automatically prompt multiple options.
Option 1: Go to the reader to sniff keys.(Take the original token to the
token reader to sniff, obtain the secret key, and assist in reading the
token)
Option 2: Enter known keys manually.(Enter a known secret key to
assist in reading the token)
Option 3: Force read to get partial data.(Ignore the encrypted sector,
read only the unencrypted area to
make a copy token), this is unlikely to produce a working token.
Option 4: Go into PC Mode to perform a hard nested attack on a token.
For details about these four options, please see "Advance Use".
5

ADVANCE USE / PC MODE
Once connected to a windows PC via the USB Type C cable supplied.You
can access a hardnested attack to crack the unknown keys of a MIFARE
token.
Step 1: Connect to your computer and then enter PC-MODE on the
iCopy-X select Start and wait for the iCopy-X to say“PC mode
Running⋯”
Step 2: A USB flash drive will appear on the computer. Open the drive
and then right click on "AUTO-Hardnest.exe" and choose “Run as
Administrator”. A program will open and should automatically connect to
the iCopy if it doesn’t, you will need to manually connect using the
connect button and by typing in the appropriate COM port.
Step 3: Click "Read Card" and the analysis will start
automatically.
Step 4: After the analysis is completed, the password is automatically
saved you can then exit PC Mode on the iCopy -X and click "Auto Copy"
again.
TIP: If interrupted by an accidental error, click "Read Card" to reread
the card to continue from the breakpoint.Manually add frequently used
secret keys to the password library.
Step 1: On the U disk, locate the following file:
keys\mf1\mf_user_key.dic. Open it with Notepad or
Notepad++.
Step 2: Add secret keys to the list. Each secret key ends with a
carriage return. Save the file after editing. All keys added to this file will
be checked whenever a MIFARE series token is read.
Be aware, the more keys stored in the cryptographic library the
slower the scanning will be,
(1000 keys will take around 100 seconds to scan).
6

ADVANCE USE / PC MODE
To use the command line options in PC-MODE.
Step 1: Connect to your computer and then enter PC-MODE on the
iCopy-X select Start and wait for the iCopy-X to say “PC mode
Running⋯”
Step 2: A USB flash drive will appear on the computer.
Open the drive and then double click on "RUN.bat" This will open the
Windows Command Prompt Application.It will ask you to enter the
connected numeric COM Port for the iCopy-X. Enter it (device manager,
COM ports)
Step 3: Type help and press enter, this will bring up the first level
of commands that can be used with the iCopy-X
TIP: You can refer to the PM3 examples found online in github.com for
further commands and their usage or if you are familiar with command
line help commands you can use those.E.G. To use the sniffing function
to sniff the interaction between a genuine reader and the token. (This
will aid in advanced decryption)
Step 1: At the command prompt type: 14A Sniff mode.
Step 2: Remove the antenna protective cover and place the
antenna between the genuine reader and the token you will be
sniffing the traffic between. Swipe the token to ensure the
reader recognises it.
Step 3: Click "start".
Step 4: You may need to continually adjust the distance between the
three (Reader, iCopy-X, Token), and swipe the token multiple times at
different distances to get a good data dump.
Step 5: When you are happy that you have enough data bytes for a
complete trace, click "finish", iCopy-X will automatically start to parse the
password, display the password list.It will automatically save the
password to the dictionary library. Step 6: To view the Interaction
between reader and token click"SAVE", the trace will be saved to the
trace directory of the U disk.

Equipment maintenance and software
updates
Step 1: Enter the device SN (found under the“About”menu) on the
website and download the upgrade package to your PC.
Step 2: Connect the ICOPY-X to your computer using the supplied
USB TYPE C cable and delete any files that end in “.ipk” from the
root directory.
Step 3: Copy the newly downloaded upgrade package to the root
directory.
Step 4: Press "OK" on the second page of the "About" menu on the
ICOPY-X to start the automatic upgrade.
TIP: Ensure that the serial number has been entered correctly before
starting as this may cause the upgrade to fail.

FAQ
What should I do if the device crashes?
The device may freeze or freeze due to various abnormal
conditions. Long press the "Power" button for 15 seconds to
force a reset.
Why can't the device complete the decryption?
In the list of supported cards, 98% of the cards can be
decrypted and copied. But it is not ruled out that a few special variant
cards cannot be cracked conventionally. Decryption can be assisted by
sniffing, chameleon detection and other means.
How to choose when there are four options:“Sniff",“Enter",“Force", and
“PC-MODE"?
If you have a computer, Windows 10 with a CPU i3 and above is
supported, Select "PC-MODE" first in the iCopy-X Menu to use the
computers advanced cracking function. If the computer fails to crack, or
there is no computer. You can try to use "Sniff" to sniff the password, and
you need to prepare the credit card machine or access control
corresponding to the card. If you have obtained one or several passwords
through "Sniff", you can try to use "Force" to force the card to be read. Use
incomplete data to make a cloned card. There is still an 80% probability
that it can be used normally. If you already have one or more passwords of
the card, you can manually add the known passwords by pressing "Enter".

*The actual usable capacity will be reduced and different due to many
factors: because the operating system occupies part of thec memory
(RAM), the actual available space is less than the marked memory
capacity; because the operating system and preinstalled programs occupy
part of the flash memory (ROM), the actual available storage space is less
than the identified flash memory capacity.
