USER INTERFACE
The Ego9 has a simple user interface through which
all aspects of it’s electronic control system can be
monitored and adjusted by means of the three
pushbuttons and graphical LCD which comprise the
Navigation Console.
SWITCHING ON
Pressing and holding or double-clicking the button
will switch the Ego9 on. The LCD display will show the
Ego9 logo. When the button is released, the LCD will
show the Run Screen, which is the screen displayed
during the normal use of the Ego9.
RUN SCREEN LAYOUT
The root of the user interface is the Run Screen. This
screen is the one most often displayed and provides
the user with essential feedback on the state of the
Ego9. A typical Run Screen is shown on the right.
On the left of the screen is a display option that is user
selectable from the Main Menu (see page 33). This
option can be:-
> A GAME TIMER
> A SHOT COUNTER
> AN AVERAGE RATE OF FIRE INDICATOR
> A PEAK RATE OF FIRE INDICATOR
Briefly pressing the button will replace the display
option with the name of the currently selected Preset
(see page 37).
On the right of the screen are up to six icons, each of
which provides graphical indication on different parts
of the Ego9 control electronics:
ADJUSTING THE VELOCITY
When using your Ego9, you may wish to change the
velocity at which your Ego9 is firing. This is done by
inserting a 1/8" hex key into the adjuster screw at the
bottom of your Ego9 Inline Regulator and adjusting it
accordingly (SEE FIGURE 7.1). By turning this adjuster
screw clockwise you decrease the output pressure of
the Inline Regulator and consequently the velocity,
by turning the adjuster screw counter clockwise you
increase the output pressure of the Inline Regulator
and consequently the velocity. (There are also
engravings on the bottom of the Inline Regulator
showing which direction increases and decreases
velocity).
ADJUSTING THE LPR
PRESSURE
When using your Ego9, you may wish to change the
output pressure of your LPR. This is easily done by
inserting a 1/8" inch hex key into the adjuster screw at
the front and adjusting it accordingly (SEE FIGURE 7.2).
However we recommend that the LPR screw be left set
flush with the front of the LPR cap.
By turning the adjuster screw clockwise, you decrease
the output pressure of your LPR and consequently
reduce the pressure driving your rammer back and
forth. By turning the adjuster screw counter clockwise,
you increase the output pressure of your LPR and
consequently increase the pressure driving your
rammer back and forth.
NOTE: AFTER EACH ADJUSTMENT FIRE TWO CLEARING
SHOTS TO GAIN AN ACCURATE VELOCITY READING. NEVER
EXCEED 300FPS.
NOTE: TURNING THE ADJUSTER SCREW IN TOO FAR WILL
PREVENT THE EGO9 FROM FIRING.
NOTE: THE AUX OUT INDICATOR IS ONLY DISPLAYED WHEN YOU
CONNECT A COMPONENT SUCH AS A RF TRANSMITTER VIA THE
AUXILIARY SOCKET ON THE CIRCUIT BOARD (SEE PAGE 14).
