User's Manual

most switch bounce from either a low debounce setting or mechanical bounce occurs
almost immediately after the trigger is released, CPF can be very effective in eliminating
falsely generated trigger activity.
Ramp start – This setting is only used for the four ramping fire modes (PSP 50% and
100% ramping, and normal 50% and 100% ramping). It sets the minimum pulls per
second that must be maintained for the software to add shots or ramp up to the
maximum rate of fire setting. The default is 5 and is adjustable from 4 to 14 pulls per
second.
G mode – The Musashi 7 VS chip includes a special mode that can be applied 3
different ways to each of the 12 fire modes, giving 36 “breakout” style combinations. G
mode gives the user full-automatic with an unlimited rate of fire for a single pull, for use
at the start of the game. The setting is defaulted at 4, which turns G mode off. Settings
1, 2, and 3 dictate at which pull that G mode will become active. If set to 1, the first
shot after you turn on the marker will be full-automatic with an unlimited rate of fire for
as long as you hold down the trigger. As soon as you release the trigger, the marker will
stop shooting and default back to your selected fire mode. If set to 3, the G mode will
be active on the third shot after the marker is turned on. Regardless of the fire mode
selected, the shots before the G mode will be semi-automatic. G mode can only be used
once for each time the marker is turned on.
Note: G mode is illegal for use in all tournament series. Tadao Technologies LLC
takes no responsibility for the user’s choice in using G mode.
Bolt delay – This setting determines how long the eyes are ignored after the dwell time
ends. Some delay is necessary to allow the bolt to get far enough forward so the eye
system does not mistake a small gap between a paintball and the bolt face for a bolt
return. The default is 5 ms and may be set from 1 to 15 ms. Higher settings will reduce
the maximum capable rate of fire, while lower settings may lead to skipped or blank
shots because the bolt does not have enough time to block the eyes on its forward stroke.
Additional Features
Force Shot – In the event the eyes are enabled, the breech is empty, and the user wants
to fire a clearing shot, a force shot can be initiated by pulling and holding the trigger for
1/2 second. This is useful with force fed loaders that sometimes push a ball slightly into
the detents where the eyes are unable to see it. After force firing, the next ball will load,
and operation will continue as normal.
A tip for setting the debounce, AMB, and CPF – This only applies to semi-automatic
fire modes (modes 1 and 2) since AMB is disabled in the PSP fire modes or NXL mode.
Debounce, AMB, CPF setup steps, while using paint and air:
1. Turn AMB and CPF off (set both to 1).
2. Starting at debounce 1-3, raise the debounce setting a notch at a time until
excessive trigger bounce goes away. The goal is to have one pull, one shot,
regardless of rate of fire. Do NOT slow pull test for bounce during this phase.
Instead, pull the trigger rapidly or walk it, listening for double or triple fires.
3. When it appears that it is only one shot, one pull for solid trigger pulls, try the
slow pull test. Holding the marker steady, slowly pull the trigger and see if
multiple shots can be generated from the single pull.
4. Increase the CPF setting a notch at a time until the slow pull bounce starts to
disappear. An additional test is to fire a few rounds quickly, then hold the trigger
right on the activation point to see if the marker will run away.
5. If you reach setting 10 with CPF and the marker can still be slow pulled to fire
full-automatic, your debounce setting is probably too low. Go back to step 2.
6. AMB should not be set above 3, if possible, since it is not as transparent to the
user as CPF. Even a CPF setting of 10 will not be noticed by the user.
