1. 2. 3. 4. INSTALLATION USING ZERo.
INSTALLING YOUR ZERO.B BOARD Ensure that your Eclipseblade frame is powered down and de-gassed. Remove the barrel and loader to make the frame easier to work on. Remove the 9 volt battery (if present), and carefully unplug the cocking solenoid from the top port on your PCB, the sear solenoid from the middle port on your PCB and the Breech sensor from the bottom port on your PCB. Using a 5/64th inch (2mm) hex key undo the three PCB screws that are holding your original circuit board into the frame.
Switching On Pressing and holding the Select (middle) pushbutton will switch the frame on. The LCD display will show the Eclipseblade Zero.B logo. When the pushbutton is released, the LCD display will show the designated display screen. Screen Layout Breech Sensor Indicator Using Zero.B Using Zero.B The standard layout of an Eclipseblade Zero.
THE MAIN MENU To activate the Main Menu, press and hold the Select pushbutton. After one second OFF will be displayed, this is one of the options on the Main Menu, as shown below. Selecting the Back option will return the display to the display from which the main menu was selected. Scroll through the main menu until the DISPLAY option is displayed and then press Select. This has now activated the DISPLAY Menu.
RATE OF FIRE OPTION The Rate of Fire (ROF) option is a means by which you can monitor your rate of fire whilst using the Eclipseblade Zero.B. The Rate of Fire screen looks like this: With the breech sensor on (and no paint present), the rate of fire will be limited by your Cocking Time Out setting as it will determine the length of time the breech is held open waiting for a ball to fall into the breech.
12 The signal from the breech sensor is represented as a percentage value and this value is shown at the top right of the display. As an object passes in front of the breech sensor (or between the transmitter and receiver in the case of a break beam sensor) then this value increases, as the object is removed then the value decreases. The breech sensor value is also represented by a graphical bar on the right-hand side of the screen.
THE GAME TIMER MENU Scroll through the main menu until the TIMER option is displayed and then press Select. You have now entered the GAME TIMER Menu. By using the Raise and Lower pushbuttons, you can scroll through the menu as illustrated below: To set the game timer, simply Select the GAME option. To set the alarm timer, simply Select the ALARM option. To set the starting method of the game timer, simply Select the START option.
16 To decrease the preset alarm time, repeatedly press and release the Lower pushbutton. Each time that the pushbutton is pressed, the alarm time will decrease by 10 seconds. To decrease the time more rapidly, press and hold the Lower pushbutton. The minimum preset alarm time is 0 minutes and 0 seconds, once this value has been exceeded the alarm timer will wrap around to 9 minutes and 59 seconds.
THE MODE MENU USING THE MODE MENU Scroll through the main menu until the MODE option is displayed and then press Select. The edit indicators appear and you you have now entered the MODE Menu as shown to the right: In SEMI mode, depressing the trigger will start the firing cycle as follows: The Sear solenoid is energised, which actuates the sear and causes the hammer to be released. 18 The Cocking solenoid is energised, which causes the cocking block to retract the bolt and open the breech.
The Information Menu CLASSIC mode provides the feel of a classic mechanical marker, but without the possibility of “short stroking” the trigger. In TRAINING mode, depressing the trigger will start the cocking cycle as follows: 20 If the breech sensor is active, then the cocking block remains retracted for a preset time (determined by your C T/OUT value) or until a paintball is detected in the breech.
THE SET-UP MENU To activate the SET-UP Menu, first remove the three rubber grip screws from the right hand side of the frame and peel back the rubber grip to expose the Zero.B board inside the frame. Press and hold the Set-up pushbutton, which is located on the PCB above the battery. Press the Lower pushbutton to scroll down through each of the options on the menu. Once the last option has been displayed, pressing the Lower pushbutton will cause the first option to be displayed.
24 Press the Select pushbutton to select the displayed option. Selecting BACK will return the display to the SET-UP Menu. Scroll through the TIMING Menu until the Sear Solenoid On Time (SEAR ON) parameter is displayed. On Time (SEAR ON) and the edit indicator will disappear from the display to indicate that the value has been accepted. The current value of the Sear Solenoid On Time (SEAR ON) is displayed in milliseconds on the right hand side of the display.
COCKING SOLENOID ON DELAY Scroll through the TIMING Menu until the Cocking Solenoid On Delay (C DELAY) parameter is displayed. 26 Scroll through the TIMING Menu until the Cocking Solenoid On Time (CON) option is displayed. The current value of the Cocking Solenoid On Time (CON) is displayed on the right hand side of the display. Press the Select pushbutton to enter the edit function and the edit indicator will appear on the display.
COCKING SOLENOID TIME OUT 28 COCKING SOLENOID OFF TIME and the edit indicator will disappear from the display to indicate that the value has been accepted. Scroll through the timing menu until the Cocking Solenoid Off Time (C OFF) option is displayed. The current value of the Cocking Solenoid Time Out (C T/OUT) is displayed on the right hand side of the display. The current value of the Cocking Solenoid Off Time (C OFF) is displayed on the right hand side of the display.
THE FILTER MENU 30 Press the Lower pushbutton to scroll down through each of the options on the FILTER Menu. Once the last option has been displayed, pressing the Lower pushbutton will cause the first option to be displayed.

SETTING THE EMPTY BREECH DETECTION TIME 32 The current value of the Empty Breech Detection Time (EMPTY) is displayed on the right hand side of the display. Press the Select pushbutton to enter the edit function and the edit indicator will appear on the display. Press and release the Raise pushbutton to increase the Empty Breech Detection Time (EMPTY) in 0.1 millisecond increments. Press and hold the Raise pushbutton to increase the Empty Breech Detection Time (EMPTY) more rapidly.
SETTING THE TRIGGER PULL TIME Scroll through the FILTER Menu until the Trigger Pull Time (PULL) option is displayed. 34 Note: A Trigger Pull Time (PULL) of 1ms is recommended when using the additional TT filtering correctly. Scroll through the FILTER Menu until the Trigger Release Time (RELEASE) option is displayed. indicator will disappear from the display to indicate that the value has been accepted.
36 The Zero.B incorporates an advanced debounce (anti-bounce) algorithm known as the Trigger Transition Filter (TT Filter), which is fully adjustable and can be used to completely eliminate trigger bounce. The TT Filter works by analysing each trigger pull and determining whether that trigger pull is a legitimate pull of the trigger by the user, or one that has been caused by the gun bouncing, in which case the algorithm will take steps to stop that bounce.
38 Note: The fastest way to shoot an E2 is to walk the trigger with two or more fingers. Feathering (not fully releasing) the trigger will cause the TT Filter to reduce the rate of fire in order to eliminate what it perceives as trigger bounce. THE BREECH SENSOR TYPE The Breech Sensor Type parameter defines which type of breech sensor is fitted to the marker. REFLECTV refers to the standard Reflective Breech Sensor which is supplied with the Eclipseblade / Eclipseblade E2.

Full Name THE FACTORY SETTINGS PARAMETER Advanced Set-Up As a guideline, we would recommend that: 44 When using the Zero.B on a standard autococker with standard pneumatics using a gravity fed loading device, the frame should be set at Factory Slow. When using the Zero.B on a mid-range autococker, such as an Eclipse Pro Series or Pro Series Plus marker using an electronic loading device, the frame should be set at Factory Medium. When using the Zero.
To set the Zero.B frame to Factory Slow, select the SLOW option. To set the Zero.B frame to Factory Medium, select the MEDIUM option. To set the Zero.B frame to Factory Fast, select the FAST option.
