Installing a Battery
Ensure that the Eclipse Ego is switched off. Lay the marker on a flat surface in front of you, with the feed tube furthest away and with the barrel pointing to the right.
Use a 5/64” hex wrench to remove the three countersunk screws that hold the rubber grip onto the frame (Note: a 2mm hex key can also be used). Peel the grip to the right to expose the electronics within the frame.
If present, remove the existing battery by sliding your thumb into the recess below the battery and levering
the battery out of the frame
(See Figure 2.1)
.
Do Not pull on the top of the battery to remove it as this can cause the battery terminals to bend and will result in a poor electrical connection.
Fit a 9-volt alkaline battery (type PP3, 6LR61 or MN1604) into the recess with the battery terminals away from you. The positive terminal should be on the right hand side, nearest to the side of the frame
(See Figure 2.2).
Ensure that all of the wires are within the recess of the frame then replace the rubber grip and replace the three countersunk screws. Do Not over-tighten the screws.

Using The EgoUsing The Ego
Using The Ego
Before you can begin to use your Eclipse Ego, there are a few necessary components that are required to enable the Eclipse Ego to function; namely an air system and a loader of your choice.
Every Eclipse Ego comes complete with an Eclipse On/Off Purge System (OOPS) allowing a preset regulator and tank to be screwed straight in for immediate use. Before screwing the preset system into the OOPS ensure
that the on/off knob is wound out approximately half way
(See Figure 3.1)
. Be careful not to unscrew the on/off knob too far as it will come completely out of the OOPS. If this happens, replace the on/off knob by screwing it back into the OOPS in a clockwise direction.
Screw the preset air system into the OOPS
(See Figure 3.2)
so that the bottle screws in all the way and is tight. Slowly turn the on/off knob in a clockwise direction allowing the OOPS to depress the pin of the preset air system, causing the Eclipse Ego to become pressurised, providing there is sufficient
air in your tank
(See Figure 3.3)
. You have now installed a preset air system
to your Eclipse Ego.
FIGURE 3.1
FIGURE 3.2
FIGURE 3.3
Installing a Preset Air System
Setting Up
Note: When utilising an OOPS on your Eclipse Ego, the Eclipse Ego will store air in the valve chamber after the OOPS has dumped the supply in your gas line and inline regulator. Please remember to discharge the stored air in a safe direction as you are unscrewing the
on/off knob on the OOPS.
Note: The Eclipse Ego cannot be used with Co2, it can only be
powered by Compressed Air or Nitrogen.
16
Installing an Adjustable Air system
Firstly disconnect the 1/4” hosing from the elbow attached to the OOPS
at the base of the frame
(See Figure 3.4)
. Unscrew the on/off knob from the OOPS, and using a 3/32” Hex key turn the two screws on the left hand side of the OOPS rail counter clockwise so that the body of the OOPS can be
removed by sliding it out
(See Figure 3.5)
. Using a 5/32” hex key remove the
two screws that attach the OOPS rail to the bottom of the Eclipse Ego grip
frame and remove the OOPS rail
(See Figure 3.6)
.
Attach the air system of your choice, taking care to ensure that you use the correct length and size of hosing and elbows to accommodate your requirements.
WARNING: Before attaching any fixed air system, place attaching screw in designated slide rail and measure protruding screw length. Screw length must not protrude more than 10mm/
0.40" otherwise the Ego Printed Circuit Board will become damaged.

Using a 5/32” hex key, turn the top screw of the clamping feed tube counter clockwise until the feed neck of your loader can easily be pushed into the
top of the clamping feed tube
(See Figure 3.7)
. Push your choice of loader
firmly into the clamping feed tube so that it rests on the shelf inside the
clamping feed tube
(See Figure 3.8)
. Using a 5/32” hex key, tighten the top
screw of the clamping feed tube by turning it clockwise until the loader is
firmly gripped
(See Figure 3.9)
.
You have now attached a loader to your Eclipse Ego. Once you have filled your loader and air tank you will then be ready to begin using your Eclipse Ego.

As both the
TIMER
and the
SHOTS
options from the
DISPLAY
Menu are covered in their respective sections in the following pages we will start by looking at the Rate of Fire option.
The Rate of Fire
(ROF)
option is a means by which you can monitor your rate of fire whilst using the Eclipse Ego. The Rate of Fire screen looks like the screen to the left.
With the Break Beam Sensor System enabled and paint present, the rate of fire is only limited to the speed of your loader. To achieve the highest rates of fire we recommend using a high-speed loader such as the HALO, Evolution 2 or Q-loader. With the Break Beam Sensor System enabled, and no paint present, the rate of fire will be 0, as your Eclipse Ego will not be able to fire.
To use the Rate of Fire screen without shooting paint, simply switch the Break Beam Sensor System off using
the
Raise
pushbutton. In this scenario, the Rate of Fire is
only limited to whatever value you have selected in the
MAX ROF
option in the
TIMING
Menu.
The Rate of Fire Indicator records every pull and release of the trigger over a period of one second and calculates the number of valid shots that were fired during that period.
The current Rate of Fire is displayed in the top right hand corner. The maximum Rate of Fire that has been achieved is displayed in the bottom right hand corner.
To reset the maximum Rate of Fire simply push and
hold the
Lower
pushbutton for a 1 second period.

When using your Eclipse Ego, you may wish to change the velocity at which your Eclipse Ego is firing. This is done by inserting a 1/8th" hex key into the adjuster screw at the bottom of your Eclipse Ego Inline regulator
and adjusting it accordingly
(See Figure 3.10)
. By turning this adjuster screw clockwise you decrease the output pressure of the inline regulator and consequently the velocity, by turning the adjuster screw counter clockwise you increase the output pressure of the inline regulator and consequently the velocity.
When using your Eclipse Ego, you may wish to change the output pressure of your LPR. This is easily done by inserting a 5/32nd" inch hex key into the
adjuster screw at the front and adjusting it accordingly
(See Figure 3.11)
. By turning the adjuster screw clockwise, you decrease the output pressure of your LPR and consequently reduce the pressure driving your hammer back and forth. By turning the adjuster screw counter clockwise, you increase the output pressure of your LPR and
consequently increase the pressure driving
your hammer back and forth.

Setting The Trigger
There are three adjustment points on the trigger - the
Front Stop Trigger
Screw
, the
Rear Stop Trigger Screw
and the
Return Strength Trigger Screw
.
As standard each Eclipse Ego comes with a factory-set trigger travel of approximately 2mm in total length: one millimetre of travel before the firing point, and one millimetre of travel after the firing point.
The
Front Stop Trigger Screw
is used to set the amount of trigger travel prior to the marker firing. Turn this screw clockwise to reduce the amount of travel. Do not turn the screw too far or the trigger will be pushed past its firing point and the marker will not work. Turn this screw
counter clockwise to increase the amount of trigger travel
(See Figure 4.1)
The
Rear Stop Trigger Screw
is used to set the amount of trigger travel after the marker has fired. Turn this screw clockwise to reduce the amount of travel. Do not turn the screw too far or the trigger will be prevented from reaching its firing point and the marker will not work. Turn this screw counter clockwise to increase the amount of trigger
travel
(See Figure 4.2)
The
Return Strength Trigger Screw
is used to adjust the amount of force
with which the trigger is returned to its rest position. Turn the screw
clockwise to increase the amount of force
(See Figure 4.3)
. Do not turn the screw too far or it will negate the position of the Front Stop Trigger Screw. Turn the screw counter clockwise to reduce the amount of force. Do not turn the screw too far or there will not be enough force to return the trigger.
Once you have set the trigger to your preference, refer to setting the
TT
BAND (see page 37)
, as it is very important that the
TT BAND
and trigger pull
are set up together for the Trigger Transition Filtering to work correctly.

Using the Break Beam Sensor System
During the firing cycle, the breech sensor looks first for an empty breech and then for a paintball within the breech. Only when the sensor has detected both conditions will it allow the Eclipse Ego to be fired. The sensor software
filter allows you to fine tune the operation of the Break Beam sensor system by allowing you to specify how long the sensors have to see an 'empty' breech for and how long they have to see a ball for.

The trigger has to be pulled for a specific time in order for that trigger pull to be accepted as a valid trigger pull. The Eclipse Ego cannot be fired until it has had a valid trigger pull.
The trigger then has to be released for a specific time in order for that release to be accepted as a valid trigger release. The Eclipse Ego cannot be fired again until it has first had a valid trigger release (followed, of course, by another valid trigger pull).
With the addition of the Trigger Transition software filter
(see page. 36)
, you can minimise the time that the trigger has to be pulled for and how long it has to be released for to maintain high rates of fire whilst eliminating the risk of 'Trigger Bounce'

Using the Trigger Transition Filtering
The Eclipse Ego incorporates an advanced debounce (anti-bounce) algorithm known as the
Trigger Transition
Filter (TT Filter)
, which is fully adjustable and can be
used to completely eliminate trigger bounce.
The
TT Filter
works by analysing each trigger pull and determining whether that trigger pull is a legitimate pull of the trigger by the user, or one that has been caused by the gun bouncing, in which case the algorithm will
take steps to stop that bounce by varying the cycle time of the marker.
There are two adjustable parameters associated with the
TT Filter:
This parameter defines how strictly the
TT Filter
applies its debounce rules - the lower this value, the less the gun is able to bounce.
TT Tolerance
This parameter defines the operating range of the
TT Filter
in terms of trigger movement. The larger the
TT Band
, the less the gun is able to bounce.
TT Band
36
In order to optimise the
TT Filter
it is necessary to have the
TT Band
parameter as high as possible and the
TT Tolerance
parameter as low as
possible -
1. Select the
TT Band
parameter. Observe that the graphical bar rises and falls as the trigger is pulled and released. The actual value of the bar is displayed in the top right of the display.
2. Set the
post-travel trigger stop
as required and ensure that the bar is as close to 100% as possible when the trigger is fully depressed against the set screw.
3. Set the
pre-travel trigger set screw
as required and ensure that the bar is as close to 0% as possible when the trigger is fully released against the set screw.
4. Set the
trigger return force set
screw
as required, making the return force as strong as possible without compromising the ‘feel’ of the pull.
5. Adjust the
TT Band
parameter and observe the movement of the two horizontal markers by the
side of the bar. As the
TT Band
is
decreased these markers move closer together, and as the
TT
Band
is increased these markers
move further apart. Set the
TT Band
such that when the trigger is fully depressed the bar settles above the upper marker and when the trigger is fully release the bar settles
below the lower marker.
(See Figure
4.16)
This ensures that the
TT Band
operates across the full range of the trigger pull.
6. Select the
TT Tolerance
parameter. With the gun gassed up and preferably fitted with loader and firing paint, try to get the gun to bounce by pulling the trigger very slowly. If the gun does bounce then
reduce the
TT Tolerance
until it no
longer does so. If the gun does not bounce then increase the
TT
Tolerance
until the gun does bounce
and then reduce the
TT Tolerance
again until the bouncing stops.
Whilst this set up should completely eliminate bounce, it may result in a trigger pull that is not ideally suited to the user, in which case it will be necessary to make adjustments to
the trigger and then modify the
TT
Filter
parameters accordingly.
Setting up the TT Filter
FIGURE 4.16
Note: The fastest way to shoot an Eclipse Ego is to walk the trigger with two or more fingers. Feathering (not fully releasing) the trigger will cause the TT Filter to reduce the rate of fire down in order to eliminate what it
perceives as trigger bounce.

Remembering to include the valve spring, begin to insert the rammer assembly into the Eclipse Ego body, taking care not to damage any of the low-pressure hosing. Line the rammer assembly up so that the minifold can
slide into the groove in the bottom of the Eclipse Ego body
(See Figure 6.57)
.
By applying slight pressure to the back of the rammer assembly
(See Figure 6.58)
, hold the rammer in place against the exhaust valve spring
tension, so that the valve plug can be replaced
(See Figure 6.59)
.
Line the low-pressure hose up neatly in the groove provided in the Eclipse Ego body, so that it doesn’t get in the way when re-attaching the grip frame
(See Figure 6.60)
and attach low-pressure hosing to the barb at the back of
the FRM
(See Figure 6.61)
.
Replace the frame tag, and using a 1/8th" hex key secure the frame tag in place

(See Figure 6.63)
, and reattach the
grip frame to the marker, tightening the grip frame screws using a 1/8th" hex key
(See Figure 6.64)
.
Ensure that the Break Beam Sensor cables lie neatly in the slots provided for them in the Eclipse Ego grip frame
(See Figure 6.65)
. Connect the
solenoid and the Break Beam Sensors into their relevant places on the Eclipse Ego PCB
(See Figure 6.66)
and re-attach the Eclipse Ego grips by
securing the six grip screws using a 5/64th" hex key
(See Figure 6.67)
.
Screw the inline regulator back into the FRM
(See Figure 6.68)
and connect
any hosing that was disconnected
(See Figure 6.69)
. Replace bolt and locate
bolt pin in the designated groove in the rammer.
You have now assembled your Eclipse Ego.
