TIMING
THE TIMING MENU
The parameters on the Timing menu all relate to the
timing of specific events.
DWELL
THE DWELL PARAMETER
The
DWELL parameter sets
the amount of time that the
solenoid is energized and
therefore the amount of gas
that is released with each
shot of the Ego9. Setting
this parameter too low will
result in low velocity shots
and/or excessive shot to shot
velocity fluctuations. Setting
the parameter too high will
simply waste gas and make
the Ego9 louder.
The
DWELL can be set
between 0.0 and 25.0
milliseconds. The factory
default setting can normally
be reduced after a few
thousand shots as the Ego9
‘beds-in’.
FSD COMP
THE FIRST SHOT DROP-OFF COMPENSATION
PARAMETER
First shot drop off is a reduction in velocity of the first
shot fired after an extended period of not firing and
is caused by the stiction between dynamic o-rings
and the surfaces that they are in contact with. In order
to compensate for FSD this parameter can be set to
add extra time to the DWELL parameter for the first
shot. This parameter can be set between 0.0 and 3.0
milliseconds.
LIGHT
THE LIGHT PARAMETER
The LCD backlight is illuminated whenever any of the
buttons are pressed on the Ego9. The LIGHT parameter
is used to set the amount of time that the backlight
stays lit between 0.0 and 20.0 seconds in 0.5 second
increments.
SLEEP
THE SLEEP PARAMETER
If the Ego9 is inactive for a period of time then it will
automatically switch off in order to save power. The
SLEEP parameter is used to set that time between 5 and
60 minutes in 5 minute increments.
