what about the reverse trigger idea?


fires on the return of the trigger rather than the pull

Hehehe. No, it will not be in the software. I mentioned the reverse trigger earlier, but didn't show you.

Oh yeah, this won't be in it either:

f/a sucks

i want reverse trigger!! i'll pay extra for it

if the board has enough memory that is

[DiRTyBuNNy]

ah..essentially a new school electro version of the old school auto-response trigger frame...so you get a firing cycle on the pull and the release of the trigger..

[sneakyhacker420]

nooooo


the regular trigger fires on the pull, and not on the return

with the 'reverse' trigger, you pull it and nothing happens, but when the trigger returns foward, it fires

basically, instead of decting the presence of a magnetic field, the HES detects the absence of a magnetic field

yes..but in Hybrid it would act like an autoresponse...or you could get some crazy mad bounce..

Yup... reverse trigger + hybrid = auto-response.

Would it be possible to get the software to power on/off, basically like a Boo-yah frame(hold done the two buttons in back and it powers off)? That way you don't need a switch OR the yellow pin. Also, is the "boot-up screen" customizable enought that we can make our own or do you have to pre-program them?

[JT2002]

actually, i think thats one of the best ideas so far. i think it would be a GREAT idea for you to make it like the trix's, where you hold down a button for say 2 secs and the gun turns on. i dont knwo why noone has thought of that so far, but i think that is by far one of the most important things you should consider adding to the board

It already does that. Push both buttons on back simultaneously and it goes into E-Safe Mode.

You won't be able to do them yourself. But it can be changed by person flashing your board. I may or may not make a utility to make this a simple process... that's one of the last things on my list of 'possible' things.

I/we mean we want the E/X-mag to turn off when you hold the two buttons down, not just go into a safety mode.

Edit: What software version does the E-Safety Mode work in? I can't seem to get my 1.35 software to do that.

I am fairly certain that this cannot be done with how the board is wired. I'll give it a closer look to see if I missed something, but I don't think I did.

Using the pin, or a switch from Kayle is your best bet if conserving power is your objective.

Only Q1.0 has E-Safety. :P

Yes that is what I have always wanted.

EDIT: cool, but not what I thought it was. Due away with the on/off switches all together or make one that is like a mag light push button. even the little bendy one on the X-Mag can still be turned on in your gear bag.

I say go for a password option, so if your worried about theft you can have the gun need a password (combination of back buttons) every time you boot it up.

ROF meter would be hella cool too

Am I the only one who thinks a countdown game clock is usefull?

[Miscue]

I think they are useful... but that's why you can get an actual game timer. I have no intention of adding a game timer at the moment.
