ANTI CHOP EYES
The Anti Chop Eye (ACE) system will
prevent the RAIL™ from chopping paint by
not allowing the marker to fi re until a ball
is fully seated in front of the bolt. The eyes
use a beam across the breech. On one side
there is a transmitter, and on the opposite
side a receiver. In order for the marker
to fi re with the eyes turned on, the signal
between the two eyes must be broken.
After every shot, before the next ball
drops in the breech, the eye transmitter
and receiver must see each other. If the
eyes are dirty and cannot see each other
between shots, the LED on the board will
start blinking green. This means that the
eyes are dirty. This is an extremely reliable system as long as the eyes are kept clean. The most
common reason for dirty eyes is broken paint. If the eyes become dirty, the marker will default to
a reduced rate of fi re to prevent chopping. If this happens during game play, you can bypass this
by turning the eyes off. Clean the eyes as soon as possible.
NOTE: IF THE BATTERY IS LOW, THE MARKER MAY ACT AS IF THE EYES ARE DIRTY OR NOT
FIRE AT ALL. IN THIS CASE, REPLACE THE BATTERY.
SELF CLEANING EYE FEATURE
The RAIL™ is equipped with a self-cleaning eye feature. There is a clear polycarbonate sleeve
mounted inside the breech of the gun covering the eyes. When the bolt tip O-ring passes
through the Eye Pipe, it sweeps off any dirt, grease or paint that could be blocking the
eyes. Normally it is enough to just fi re the RAIL™ to clean anything blocking the eyes. If
this does not clear the blockage use a swab to clean the inside of the breech.
