NOTE: THE BORE SIZE OF YOUR SHAFT 3 MAY VARY
ACCORDING TO THE MODEL OF EGO10 YOU HAVE.
Your Eclipse Ego10 comes as standard with an Eclipse Shaft 3 barrel.
The barrel screws into the body of the Ego10 using a
meaning that if you hold the Ego10 pointing away from you the barrel
screws into the body in a counter-clockwise direction.
The barrel comprises of two parts, a barrel back and a barrel front .
The two parts are joined together with a left hand thread meaning that
if you hold the barrel, with the back nearest you, the front unscrews in a
counter-clockwise direction. The bore size of the barrel back is engraved
at the end of the barrel back .
On the barrel back there is a 016 NBR 70 o-ring which prevents the
barrel from vibrating loose from the Ego10 body when the marker is
red. There is also a 015 NBR 70 o-ring on the barrel front helps with
alignment when the two sections are screwed together.
Replace and lubricate these o-rings with Eclipse Grease as necessary.

OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
Below is a brief overview of what happens during
the Ego10 ring cycle. The location of parts
discussed in the text below can be found on page
74-75.
Assuming the Ego10 is gassed up and turned on,
FIGURE 1.1 shows the marker in its idle position. The
rammer is held in its rear position with pressurised
air from the LPR directed through the solenoid to
the front of the rammer. The valve chamber is full of
pressurised air from the inline regulator.
Providing a ball is in the breach, when the trigger
is pulled, a signal is sent to the solenoid which
redirects the supply of air from the front of the
rammer to the rear, which pushes the rammer and
bolt forward toward the valve FIGURE 1.2. As this
happens the air in front of the rammer is vented out
through an exhaust port in the solenoid manifold.
The rammer makes contact with the valve stem
and continues to be pushed forward, now pushing
the valve forward with it. This breaks the valve seal
allowing pressurised air to ow up through the
valve and into the bolt and vent down the barrel,
propelling a ball. FIGURE 1.3
The time that the rammer is held in this forward
position is dependant on the
The longer the dwell time the longer the Ego10
vents gas down the barrel. When this dwell time
has elapsed, the solenoid redirects the supply of air
from the back of the rammer to the front, pushing
the rammer and bolt back to the rear position. This
loss of forward force allows the valve to re-seal and
the valve chamber is re-pressurised. As the rammer
moves back air behind it is vented through an
exhaust port in the solenoid manifold FIGURE 1.4.
The Ego10 has now completed one cycle and is
ready to re again.

QUICK SET-UP
INSTALLING A 9V BATTERY
Ensure that the Ego10 is switched o. Lay the marker on a
at surface in front of you with the feed tube furthest away
and with the barrel pointing to the right.
Use a 5/64” (2mm) hex wrench to remove the three
countersunk screws that hold the rubber grip onto the
frame. Peel the grip to the right to expose the circuit board
within the frame.
Remove any tted battery by sliding your thumb or nger
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 front side of the frame SEE FIGURE 2.2.
Ensure that all of the wires are within the recess of the
frame and away from the trigger micro-switch and Opto
sensors so as not to interfere with their operation and
replace the rubber grip and replace the three countersunk
screws.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE SCREWS.

THE EGO10 CIRCUIT
BOARD
There are three sockets on the Ego10 circuit board two
of which are occupied by the BBSS connector (A) and
the Ego10 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

FIG 3.2
USING THE BREAK BEAM
SENSOR SYSTEM
The break beam sensor system, referred elsewhere in this
manual as ‘BBSS’ is used to detect when a paintball is ready
to re from the Ego10. If no paintball is ready then the
BBSS will inhibit the Ego10 from ring. This prevents the
Ego10 from ‘chopping’ paintballs that are not fully loaded
into the marker.
To switch o the BBSS, press and hold the button for 0.5
seconds SEE FIGURE 3.3.
The BBSS indicator on the top right of the LCD will change
from (enabled) to (disabled).
To switch the BBSS back on, press and hold the button
for 0.5 second. The indicator will change back to .

SETTING UP YOUR EGO10
Before you can begin to use your Ego10, you will need to
attach an air system and a paintball loader.
INSTALLING A PRESET AIR
SYSTEM
Every Ego10 comes complete with an Eclipse On/O
Purge System (OOPS) which provides a direct connection
for a preset air system. Before screwing the air system
into the OOPS ensure that the On/O knob is wound out
approximately half way SEE FIGURE 4.1. Be careful not to
unscrew the On/O knob too far as it will come completely
o the OOPS. If this happens, replace the On/O knob
by screwing it back onto the OOPS body in a clockwise
direction.
Screw the preset air system into the OOPS SEE FIGURE
4.2
so that the bottle screws in all the way and is tight.
Slowly turn the On/O knob in a clockwise direction
allowing the OOPS to depress the pin of the preset
air system causing the Ego10 to become pressurised,
providing that there is sucient air in your tank SEE
FIGURE 4.3.
You have now installed a preset air system onto your
Ego10.

TSLOT MOUNTING
WARNING
SYSTEM
The Ego10 utilises a T-slot arrangement to mount the OOPS
to the bottom of the frame. The T-slot is an improvement
over the dovetail mounting system found on most
paintball markers, and is much more able to withstand the
rigours of modern tournament paintball.
For backwards compatibility there are industry standard
mounting holes in the base of the frame for mounting third
party air source adaptors (ASAs).

SETTING THE TRIGGER
The Ego10 provides the user with the option to use
either a micro-switch or an Opto sensor as the means for
detecting trigger pulls. Before you begin to adjust and set
your trigger, you must rst select the method of trigger
detection that you wish to use by entering the Main menu
and making your selection from the HARDWARE menu (see
page 42).
There are ve adjustment points on the trigger – the front
stop trigger screw
return strength screw,
and the spring return strength screw.
As standard each Ego10 comes with a factory set trigger
travel of approximately 2mm in total length; one millimeter
of travel before the ring point and one millimeter of travel
after the ring point, and the trigger detection method set
to Opto.
The front stop trigger screw is used to set the amount of
trigger travel prior to the marker ring. Turn this screw
clockwise to reduce the amount of travel. Do not turn the
screw too far or the trigger will be pushed past the ring
point and the marker will not work. Turn this screw counter
clockwise to increase the amount of trigger travel SEE
FIGURE 6.1
The rear stop trigger screw is used to set the amount of
travel after the marker has red. 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 ring
point and the marker will not work. Turn this screw counter
clockwise to increase the amount of travel SEE FIGURE
6.2
.
The magnet return strength screw is used to adjust the
amount of force with which the trigger is returned to its
rest position by the magnet. Turn the screw clockwise to
increase the amount of force. 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

point in the trigger pull at which the micro-switch is
activated. Turn the screw clockwise to decrease the
amount of trigger travel to the activation point. Turn the
screw counter clockwise to increase the amount of trigger
travel to the activation point SEE FIGURE 6.4.
The spring return strength screw can only be adjusted by
rst removing the frame from the marker body, as per the
instructions in the Maintenance section on page 57. The
spring return strength screw is used to adjust the spring
strength that returns the trigger to its resting position.
Turn the screw clockwise to increase the amount of spring
return strength in the trigger pull. Turn this screw counter
clockwise to reduce the amount of spring return strength
in the trigger pull. Do not turn the screw too far counter
clockwise or there will not be enough force to return the
trigger consistently SEE FIGURE 6.5.
When setting the trigger it is important to ensure that the
electronic trigger detection is working correctly. When the
trigger is fully depressed the trigger detection indicator
(TDI) should point upwards .
When the trigger is fully released the TDI should point
downwards .
For more information, see understanding the trigger
detection indicator (TDI) on page 27 and The FILTER menu
on page 40.

ADJUSTING THE VELOCITY
When using your Ego10, you may wish to change the
velocity at which your Ego10 is ring. This is done by
inserting a 1/8" hex key into the adjuster screw at the
bottom of your Ego10 inline regulator and adjusting it
accordingly SEE FIGURE 7.1. 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. On the bottom of the inline regulator there are
engraved arrows to illustrate which direction to turn the
hex key to make the relevant adjustment.
NOTE: AFTER EACH ADJUSTMENT FIRE TWO CLEARING
SHOTS TO GAIN AN ACCURATE VELOCITY READING. NEVER
EXCEED 300FPS.

USING YOUR EGO10
ADJUSTING THE LPR
PRESSURE
When using your Ego10, you may wish to change the
output pressure of your LPR. This is easily done by inserting
a 1/8" inch hex key into the adjuster screw at the front
and adjusting it accordingly SEE FIGUR E 7.2. However
we recommend that the LPR screw be left set 2 turns in
(clockwise) from the screw being ush with the front of the
LPR cap.
By turning the adjuster screw clockwise, you decrease the
output pressure of your LPR and consequently reduce the
pressure driving your rammer 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 rammer back and forth.
NOTE: TURNING THE ADJUSTER SCREW IN TOO FAR WILL
PREVENT THE EGO10 FROM FIRING.

FIG 7.2
USER INTERFACE
The Ego10 has a simple user interface through which all
aspects of it’s electronic control system can be monitored
and adjusted by means of the three pushbuttons and
graphical LCD which comprise the navigation console.
RUN SCREEN LAYOUT
The root of the user interface is the run screen. This screen
is the one most often displayed and provides the user with
essential feedback on the state of the Ego10. A typical run
screen is shown on the right.
On the left of the screen is a display option that is user
selectable from by briey pressing the button on the
navigation console.

THE BREAK BEAM SENSOR
SYSTEM INDICATOR BBSS
The BBSS is able to switch itself o in the event of a
blockage or contamination preventing it from functioning
correctly. In this instance, the BBSS will switch itself back on
once the blockage is cleared and the correct operation can
be resumed.
The BBSS indicator on the main screen is used to indicate
the eight possible states of the BBSS as follows:
BBSS ENABLED AND BALL DETECTED
The Ego10 can be red at the maximum rate
of re determined by the chosen ring mode.
BBSS ENABLED NO BALL DETECTED
The Ego10 cannot be red.
BBSS DISABLED
The Ego10 can be red at a maximum rate of
re as set by the BS OFF ROF parameter (see
page 37).
BBSS FAULT DETECTED
The system is disabled. The Ego10 can only
be red at a maximum rate of 2bps less than
the maximum rate of re, up to a maximum
of 10 bps.
BBSS FAULT HAS BEEN CLEARED AND
BALL DETECTED
The sensor has been re-enabled. A ball is
detected and the Ego10 can be red at the
maximum rate of re determined by the
chosen ring mode.
BBSS FAULT HAS BEEN CLEARED AND
NO BALL DETECTED
The sensor is enabled. No ball is detected so
the Ego10 cannot be red. To reset the BBSS
icon, use the button to switch o the
BBSS and then back on again.
BBSS ENABLED IN TRAINING MODE
The BBSS has been over-ridden as the user
has selected training mode. As the user has
chosen to leave the BBSS on, the achievable
rate of re is limited by the ring mode.
BBSS DISABLED IN TRAINING MODE
The BBSS has been over-ridden as the user
has selected training mode. As the user has
chosen to turn the BBSS o, the achievable
rate of re is limited by the BS OFF RO F
parameter (see page 37).
THE AUX OUT INDICATOR
The auxiliary socket on the Ego10 circuit board allows third
party products such as loaders or RF transmitters to be
interfaced to the Ego10.
The AUX out indicator is turned on and o via the AUX OUT
parameter (see page 44).
There are two possible conditions that can be indicated:
AUX OUT ENABLED
The AUX OUT is enabled. Each time the circuit
board detects a valid trigger pull a signal will
be sent to the AUX connector on the circuit
board.
AUX OUT DISABLED
The AUX OUT is disabled. No signal will be sent
to the AUX connector on the circuit board.
THE SOUND INDICATOR
The sound indicator on the run screen is used to convey if
the SOUND parameter in the HARDWARE menu (page 43) is
switched on or o.
There are two possible conditions that can be indicated:
SOUND ENABLED
The SOUND parameter is enabled. The Ego10
will make sounds when switched on and o
and when the game timer alarms or times out.
SOUND DISABLED
The SOUND parameter is disabled. The Ego10
will not make any sounds.
THE TRIGGER DETECTION

USING YOUR EGO10
THE LOCK INDICATOR
The Ego10 has a tournament lock which prevents the user
from making changes to any parameter that aects the
way in which the Ego10 shoots, without the need for tools.
This feature is necessary in order to make the Ego10 legal
for tournament play.
When the lock is enabled the lock indictor will show a
closed padlock .
When the lock is disabled the lock indictor will show an
open padlock .
To enable or disable the tournament lock see Accessing the Menu System on page 34.
THE BATTERY LEVEL
INDICATOR
The battery level indicator is used to show the state of the
battery within the Ego10. When the battery is fresh the
indicator will show a ‘full’ battery and as the battery is
drained, so the indicator will show the battery emptying.
When the battery reaches a point at which the Ego10 will
no longer function reliably, the indicator will start to ash.
At this point the battery must be changed immediately.
As well is displaying the voltage level the battery, the
indicator also warns if the battery being used has an
incorrect voltage to operate the electronics reliably.
The icon for a battery with an incorrect voltage output
is . If this icon is shown the battery must be replaced
immediately.
THE GAME TIMER
When the game timer is shown on the run screen then
it can be started by pressing the button and the
timer will start to count down. The game timer can also
be congured to start on a trigger press with the START
parameter (see page 47).
When the game timer reaches the
ALARM T IME the gamer timer will start
to ash and the audible alarm will
sound every second, provided that the
SOUND parameter is on.
When the game timer reaches 00:00,
GAME OVER will be displayed and the
audible alarm will sound continually,
provided that the
set to ‘ON’.
To stop the game timer at any time
press and hold the button for 0.5
seconds.
To reset the game timer to it’s preset
start time, push and hold the button
for 1 second. The game timer will also be reset whenever
the Ego10 is switched o.

THE SHOT
COUNTER
The shot counter will increment
every time that the Ego10 solenoid
is activated, regardless of whether
the shot counter is displayed or not.
When the shot counter is displayed on
the run screen it can be reset to 0 by
pressing and holding the button
for 0.5 seconds.
There is also an optional shot gauge
that can be displayed on this run
screen. The gauge counts down from
a user adjustable number. To alter the
gauge settings see pages 46.
The gauge is reset whenever the Ego10 is switched o or
the button is pressed.
THE ACTUAL
RATE OF FIRE
When the actual ROF is selected
for display the run screen will look
something like the screen to the right.
The value displayed in the top left of
the screen represents the number of
full cycles completed in a second - the
actual rate of re over that second.
The graph below this number shows
the actual rates of re achieved over
time where each bar represents the
amount of pulls in that second.
To reset the maximum, press and hold
the button for 1 second.
THE PEAK RATE
OF FIRE
When the peak ROF is selected for
display the run screen will look
something like the screen to the right,
which diers from the display of the
actual ROF by the inclusion of the
indicator ‘PK’. The value displayed in
the top left of the screen represents
the maximum peak rate of re that
has been recorded. The graph below
this number shows the peak rates of
re achieved over time.
To reset this maximum, press and hold
the button for 0.5 seconds.
The peak ROF is typically higher than
the actual ROF as it is much easier to re two shots in quick
succession than it is to maintain a string over a longer
period of time.
THE MENU SYSTEM
Behind the run screen is a structured menu system
comprised of two layers of menus. Each menu contains a
number of menu items and each menu item can either be
a parameter or a branch to another menu. Branches have
an animated graphic on the right of the display, whereas
parameters have their current value

PARAMETE R
On parameter screens a range bar will be displayed where
there is a large scale of adjustability in that parameter. The
current parameter value is displayed as a box on the range
bar which is used to indicate the range of adjustability in
the parameter value.
At the bottom of the parameter screen the unit for that
parameter will be displayed. Some parameters will not
have units, such as on or o parameters. For a detailed list

RAMP SETUP
THE RAMP SETTINGS MENU
This menu is only available when ramping has been
selected with the FIRE MODE parameter and comprises a
list of parameters that control the way in which the Ego10
ramps, as shown below.
> STEP:
Step ramping will cause the Ego10 to shoot in
semi-automatic until a number of trigger pulls, set by
SEMI SHOT S, have been made at a minimum pull rate, set
by KICK IN. At this point the rate of re will step up to the
maximum rate of re as set by BS ON ROF (or the maximum
loader speed if the ROF CAP parameter is set to o).
Ramping is maintained as long as the user continues to
pull the trigger at a required rate set by SUSTAIN.

Editing is cancelled and no changes are made
RATE
THE LINEAR RAMP RATE PARAMETER
The parameter is only available when LINEAR
ramping is selected and is used to set the
percentage increase in rate of re over rate
of trigger pulls.
For example, if the user is pulling the trigger
at a rate of 10 pulls per second and the
parameter is set to 50% then the rate of re
is 10 plus 50% extra which is 15 balls per
second.
This parameter can be set between 0 and 100% in 10%
increments.
RATE
SEMI SHOTS
THE SEMI SHOTS MENU
The parameter sets the number of shots
in semi-automatic that are required at the
KICK IN rate before ramping will start. The
parameter can be set between 3 and 9 pulls
in 1 pull increments.
KICK IN
THE KICKIN PARAMETER
This parameter sets the minimum rate
at which the user has to pull the trigger
in order to start ramping. This parameter
can be set between 3.3 and 10.0 pulls per
second in 0.1 pulls per second increments.
SUSTAIN
THE SUSTAIN RATE PARAMETER
Once the Ego10 is ramping the user has to
continue to pull the trigger at a minimum
rate in order to maintain the ramping.
This parameter sets this rate and can be
between 3.3 and 10.0 pulls per second in
0.1 pulls per second increments.
RESTART
THE RAMP RESTART PARAMETER
The RESTART parameter denes the amount
of time after the last trigger pull during
which the ramp can be restarted with a
single trigger pull. If a trigger pull occurs
after the RESTART time has expired, then the
other ramp start conditions have to be met
before ramping will restart. This parameter
can be set between 0.0 and 1.0 seconds in
0.1 second increments.

DWELL
THE DWELL PARAMETER
The DWELL parameter sets the amount of
time that the solenoid is energized and
therefore the amount of gas that is released
with each shot of the Ego10. Setting this
parameter too low will result in low velocity
shots and/or excessive shot to shot velocity
uctuations. Setting the parameter too high
will simply waste gas and make the Ego10
louder. The DWEL L can be set between
0.0 and 25.0 milliseconds. The factory default setting can
normally be reduced after a few thousand shots as the
Ego10 ‘beds-in’.
FSD COMP
THE FIRST SHOT DROPOFF
COMPENSATION PARAMETER
First shot drop o is a reduction in velocity
of the rst shot red after an extended
period of not ring and is caused by the
stiction between dynamic o-rings and the
surfaces that they are in contact with. In
order to compensate for rst shot drop-o
this parameter can be set to add extra
time to the DWELL parameter for the rst
shot. This parameter can be set between 3.0 and 5.0
milliseconds.
FSD DLY
THE FIRST SHOT DROPOFF DELAY
PARAMETER
The time that has to elapse before the
FDS COMP is applied to a shot following a
previous shot. This parameter can be set
between 00:00 and 04:00 minutes.
FILTER
THE FILTER MENU
The parameters on the FILTER menu are all used to tune
the Ego10’s software lters which prevent the Ego10 from
ring unless all of the necessary conditions are met. The
factory default settings will be suitable for most set-ups,
however certain loader and trigger set-ups may require
modication of one or more of these parameters.
DEBOUNCE
THE DEBOUNCE PARAMETER
The DEBOUNCE parameter is used to combat
any trigger bounce that might occur in the
Ego10 and can be set between level 1 and
level 9 in one level increments.

TRAINING
THE TRAINING PARAMETER
The TRAINING parameter is used to select
Training mode. In Training mode the Ego10
will function exactly the same as normal but
with two important dierences:
1. The solenoid valve is not driven so the
bolt does not move and does not release a
burst of air. Instead the beeper will sound
for each pull of the trigger. This simulates
the ring cycle without wasting air and generating lots of
noise.
2. The BBSS is overridden so that the Ego10 can cycle
without paint. The centre of the BBSS indicator changes to
a ‘T’ to indicate that Training mode is enabled.
