    Emag questions for all the emag gurus

    Just got my used emag, and though i should prob just send it into the factory for a checkup, I want to use it a few times first. A few questions:

    While diagnosing a leak that turned out to be a bad drop, the guys at the local shot depleted my tank to about 600 psi. My emag was still shooting after that, but if I tried to put it into 3 or 6 round burst, it fired one shot then reset itself to one shot. Does it do this automatically if the pressure is too low? I fiddled around with changing it to burst with no tank in, and it never reset.

    Does the 1.35 software sometimes reset the total shots, and is there a specific event that triggers this?

    In hybrid mode, Ive noticed that the trigger moves just as far back as in manual. I'm just guessing (first tank of air depleted, remember) that the gun fires earlier in the trigger pull in hybrid than in manual. Do you continue to pull it back so it hits the reactive-force rod thingy in order to reap the advantages of hybrid? So, is the advantage that the trigger will be recoiling back into its ready position faster than it would in manual mode, since the firing sequence is triggered earlier. I know the language I'm using may sound a bit confusing. I'm visualizing the reactive rod thing moving out to meet the trigger coming back in hybrid mode, since it is firing before the trigger has travelled all the way back. If thats the case, I can see where that is faster than manual, where the rod isnt triggered until the trigger has traveled all the way back.

    when you get down to 800 in your tank start looking for air. You have the rest under control it seems.

      Yeah, i knew that it was not going to run right at under 800, its just that the resetting burst thing seemed kind of odd. It doesnt help that AGD has a crap manual and a non-existant troubleshooting guide.

          Do you have the mode jumper in? I don't know if it will allow you to select the 3 or 6 rd burst with it out, so I'm just throwing it out there. I have not tried to select them with it out.

          I pulled mine out shortly after getting my Emag, since if I'm ever accused of using any modes I can show them that I'd have to remove the grip panel and install a part to use them.

            Yeah, its a problem with either the firmware program or hardware. Mine does it and I have ver 1.37. I have heard that others have the problem as well. It doens't affect performance though.

            You should be able to do any maintenance checks on your gun yourself. I doubt you have to send it to AGD for a checkup. I keep the mode jumper off my gun. I only use semi-mode anyway.
            Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.
