THE AVERAGE RATE
OF FIRE
When the Average ROF is selected for display the
Run Screen will look something like the screen
to the right. The value displayed in the top left of
the screen represents the number of full cycles
completed in the last second - the average rate
of fire over the second. The number below it is
the maximum average rate of fire that has been
recorded. To reset this maximum, press and hold
the button for 0.5 seconds.
THE PEAK RATE
OF FIRE
When the Peak ROF is selected for display
the Run Screen will look something like the
screen to the left, which differs from the
display of the Average ROF by the inclusion
of the indicator ‘PK’. The value displayed in
the top left of the screen represents the rate
of fire measured between the last two shots.
The number below it is the maximum peak
rate of fire that has been recorded. To reset
this maximum, press and hold
the button for 0.5seconds.
The Peak ROF is typically higher than the
Average ROF as it is much easier to fire
two shots in quick succession than it is to
maintain a string over a longer period of
time.
THE MENU SYSTEM
Behind the Run Screen is a structured menu system comprised
of multiple levels of menus. Each menu contains a number of
menu items and each menu item can either be an
editable parameter or a branch to another menu.
Branches always have an animated graphic whereas
parameters indicate their current value.
The menu structure is shown in the following pages.
The menus are ‘smart menus’ in that they will expand and
contract depending upon the state of certain parameters. For
example, the MAX ROF parameter is only visible when the ROF
CAP parameter is set to ‘on’. Smart menu items are indicated with
a * in the table below.
