to slow the
rate of fire.
Tuning - Troubleshooting B:
If the trigger remains easy to pull after adjusting the flow control, there may
be a leak in the system. Double check installation making sure all fittings
are tight and o-rings are properly seated. If you need to disassemble to
check that all fittings are tight and o-rings are properly seated (see Response
TM
parts on page 20), do not disassemble this marker while it is pressurized
with air, follow disassembly / assembly instructions on pages 22-23. If a
problem still exists, call Tippmann
®
Service Department at 1-800-533-4831.
Tuning - Troubleshooting A:
If tuning the Response
TM
Trigger produces little or no response in the
rate of fire, reset the Flow Control as follows:
1) With marker properly unloaded (see page 21), begin adjusting rate of
fire by turning flow control clockwise
completely. Do not over tighten
or damage will occur. In a safe direction fire 2 to 4 shots. Trigger should
become very hard to pull or even unable to be pulled. If this occurs, the
response trigger system is functioning properly. Go to step 2. If it does not
occur, go to Troubleshooting B.
2) Now while firing in a safe direction with marker still unloaded, slowly turn the
flow control adjustor counterclockwise
until desired rate of fire is achieved.
NOTE: To disable the Response
TM
System:
❏ ❏
❏ ❏
❏ First follow the
unloading and air supply removal instructions on page 21 and never
disassemble a marker that is under pressure.
❏ ❏
❏ ❏
❏ Remove the banjo
fitting (
20-07) attached to the power tube/valve and replace it with
the shut off plug (
TA05021).
With a screwdriver, turn the Flow Control Adjustor

allowable dwell time is 4.0ms and the longest allowable time is 50.0ms.
According to the solenoid manufacturer, the dwell should never be below
5.0ms for proper operation. Too short of a dwell time will not release the
sear mechanism. Too long of a dwell time will reduce battery life. To adjust
the Dwell:
❏ Perform STEP 3: 1) then ❏ select the Dwell programming
feature (= Solid Red LED),
❏ pull and hold trigger until LED light goes out
and release the trigger. When LED comes back on -
❏ count the number of
green flashes to determine the current setting and once the LED stops
flashing, you have 5 seconds to
❏ begin pulling and releasing the trigger
once for every FULL 1ms of time you want the dwell to be. On each pull of
the trigger, the LED will light up red (indicating that the pull has been detected).
Once you have pulled and released the trigger the number of times necessary
to set the function,
❏ wait a few seconds for Programming Verification (See
Programming Verification on page 11).
DEBOUNCE
TM
troubleshooting and tuning/programming: Debounce
TM
is
the amount of time the trigger switch must be stable before checking for
another trigger pull. This time is measured in milliseconds. (The default
Debounce
TM
setting is 20ms). If the marker has been double firing, increase
the Debounce
TM
time. To make your marker fire faster, reduce the trigger
response time by decreasing the Debounce
TM
time. To adjust the
Debounce
TM
time: ❏ Perform STEP 3 1) then ❏ select the Debounce
TM
programming feature (= Solid Green LED),

to be.
On each pull of the trigger, the LED will light up red (indicating that the pull

THE RATE OF FIRE (ROF) CAP troubleshooting and tuning/
programming: (ROF) Cap sets the maximum cycle speed of the marker.
(The default ROF Cap is 15 bps). Setting this value too low will reduce the
usable speed of the marker. Setting this value too high can cause misfires
and “chops” if the hopper can not keep up. To adjust the Rate of Fire cap:
❏ Perform STEP 3 1) then ❏ select the (ROF) programming feature
(=Flickering Green LED),
❏ pull and hold trigger until LED light goes out
and
❏ release the trigger. When LED comes back on - ❏ count the number
of green flashes to determine the current setting and once the LED stops
flashing, you have 5 seconds to begin
❏ pulling and releasing the trigger
once for every bps you want the Rate of Fire (ROF) cap to be. For example,
20 pulls/releases would be 20 bps. On each pull of the trigger, the LED will
light up red (indicating that the pull has been detected). Once you have
pulled and released the trigger the number of times necessary to set the
function,
❏ wait a few seconds for Programming Verification (See
Programming Verification on page 11).
To Perform A Complete E-Trigger Reset To the Default Settings:
With the E-Trigger turned off, press and hold the power button for 10 full
seconds as the LED turns on solid orange and at 10 seconds it turns solid
red. At this point, you release the power button and the LED will turn off and
the board will be reset to the factory default settings. Your marker is now
ready for normal operation with the Factory Default Mode Settings: Firing
Mode = Semi-auto (1 pull/release of the trigger fires 1 time); Dwell = 6.0
ms; Debounce
TM
= 20 ms; Rate of Fire (ROF) Cap = 15 bps.
NOTE: You can increase your 98 Custom
TM
or 98 Custom Pro
TM
rate
of fire by adding a Cyclone
TM
Feeder Adapter to your marker.
The Cyclone
TM
Adapter works well with the 98 Custom
TM
With E-Trigger
TM
or 98 Custom Pro
TM
With E-Trigger
TM
when used together. Order the
Cyclone
TM
Adapter Kit PN. T205030.
