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 air that is
released with each shot of the Etek4.
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 Etek4 louder.
The DWELL can be set between 0.0 and
15.0 milliseconds. The factory default
setting can normally be reduced after a few thousand
shots as the Etek4 ‘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 5.0 milliseconds.
FSD DLY
THE FIRST SHOT DROP OFF DELAY
PARAMETER
This parameter sets the amount of time
after the last shot before the FSD Comp
is used on the next shot. The first shot
after powering on the Etek4 will always
have FSD Comp. This parameter can be
set between 30 and 240 seconds in 10
second increments.
LIGHT
THE LIGHT PARAMETER
The LCD backlight is illuminated whenever
any of the buttons are pressed on the
Etek4. 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 Etek4 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.
