THE CONTROL CONSOLE
The Etek2 utilises multi coloured LEDs to display all of the information 
that the user requires via the Etek2s Control Console.
Each area of the Control Console is used to perform different 
functions and display different information as outlined below:
 The Select Pushbutton is used to:
- Switch the Etek2 On and Off.
- Switch the BBSS (eye system) On and Off.
- To scroll through parameters and edit parameters.
The “E” on the Control Console is used to:
- Display the status of the BBSS (eye system).
- Display the value of a parameter in Tens (10 - 90)
The “G” on the Control Console is used to:
- Display the value of a parameter in Units (0 - 9)
- Display the status of the battery.
The “O” on the Control Console is used to:
- Display the value of a parameter in Tenths (0.0 - 0.9)
As a combined unit the “E”, “G” and “O” are also used to:
- Display power up and power down status.
- Display tournament lock status.
- Display that Factory settings have been restored
- To confirm whether a parameter value has been accepted or rejected.
UNDERSTANDING THE BBSS 
OPERATION
The Etek2 displays the status of the Break Beam Sensor System using 
the “E” area of the Control Console as follows:
Any changes to the Breech Sensor Status will be displayed immediately. 
This provides valuable feedback to the user.
An example of this is when you are shooting a string of shots with the 
BBSS enabled, the “E” on  the Control Console will alternate  in colour 
from Yellow  (no paintball detected)  to  Blue (paintball detected).  In  this 
instance too much yellow would indicate that your chosen loader cannot 
keep  up  with  how  fast  you  are  shooting  and  is consequently  slowing 
down your rate of fire.
The  BBSS  is  able  to  switch  itself  off  in  the  event  that  a  blockage  or 
contamination prevents it from functioning correctly.This is represented 
by a double flashing red light in the “E” area of the Control Console. The 
Etek’s ROF will be capped at 10bps. In this instance, the BBSS will switch 
itself back on once the blockage is cleared and the correct operation of 
the BBSS can then be resumed.
