USING THE BREAK BEAM
SENSOR SYSTEM
The Break Beam Sensor System is used to detect when
a paintball is ready to fire from the Ego9. If no paintball
is ready then the BBSS will inhibit the Ego9 from firing.
This prevents the Ego9 from ‘chopping’ paintballs that
are not fully loaded into the marker.
To switch off the Break Beam Sensor System, press and
hold the button for 0.5 second (SEE FIGURE 3.3).
The Break Beam sensor system indicator on the top
right of the LCD will change from (enabled) to
(disabled).
To switch the Break Beam Sensor System back on, press
and hold the button for one second. The indicator will
change back to .
When the Break Beam Sensor System is enabled, the
indicator will change depending on if the system has
detected a ball or not. When no ball has been detected
the indicator looks like this when a ball has been
detected the icon changes to look like this .
Additional features of the Ego9’s Break Beam Sensor
System are covered in full on page 24 of this user
manual.
NOTE: WHEN THE EGO9 IS TURNED ON, THE BREAK BEAM
SENSOR SYSTEM IS AUTOMATICALLY ENABLED.
SWITCHING ON THE EGO9
To switch on the Ego9 press the button twice in
quick succession, referred to elsewhere in this manual
as ‘double-clicking’. The Ego9 can also be switched on
by pushing and holding the button (FIGURE 3.1).
SWITCHING OFF THE EGO9
Press and hold the button until the display shows
OFF? Release the button and re-press it to turn off
the Ego9. Alternatively when the display reads OFF?,
you can pull the trigger once to turn off the Ego9.
FIRING THE EGO9
Pull the trigger to fire the Ego9. The entire firing
sequence is controlled electronically by the Ego9 circuit
board, enabling any user to easily achieve high rates
of fire.
THE EGO9 CIRCUIT BOARD
There are three sockets on the Ego9 Circuit board two
of which are occupied by the BBSS Connector (A) and
the Ego9 Solenoid Connector (B). The third socket on
the board (C) is the Auxiliary socket to which third
party products such as loaders and RF transmitters can
be connected using the relevant wiring harness (SEE
FIGURE 3.2).
NOTE: ON POWER UP THE EGO 9 CHECKS TO SEE IF ANY
COMPATIBLE THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS ARE CONNECTED
TO THE AUXILIARY SOCKET AND IF ANY ARE FOUND
AUTOMATICALLY ENABLES THE AUXILIARY PORT.
