Understanding The Breech Sensor Operation; The Battery Level Indicator - Eclipse ETEK 5 User Manual

USING THE ETEK5

UNDERSTANDING THE BREECH SENSOR OPERATION

The ETEK5 displays the status of the Breech Sensor using the LED on the
navigation console as follows:
INDICATION
Flashing yellow
Flashing light blue
Flashing purple (slow)
Flashing purple (fast)
Any changes to the Breech Sensor status will be displayed immediately.
This provides valuable feedback to the user.
The BS is able to switch itself off in the event that a blockage or contamination
prevents it from functioning correctly. This is represented by a fast flashing
purple LED on the navigation console. The ETEK5's ROF will be capped at
2bps less than the Maximum ROF with BS Off up to a maximum of 10bps. In this
instance, the BS will switch itself back on once the blockage is cleared and the
correct operation of the BS can then be resumed.
WARNING!
When the battery level indicator is being displayed the marker is still on and
will fire if the trigger is pulled (dependant on the condition of the BS).
BREECH SENSOR STATUS

- Marker will not fire

WARNING

THE BATTERY LEVEL INDICATOR

When the ETEK5 is turned on, the level of the battery will be displayed on the
LED (after an initial blue flash signifying the ETEK5 has powered on).

The status of the battery can be displayed manually on the LED by quickly
pressing and releasing on the navigation console.
When the battery is fresh the LED will flash green. As the battery is drained the
LED will change colour from green to yellow then red.
When the battery reaches a level where it will no longer function reliably, the LED
will start to flash red. At this point the battery must be changed for a new one.
For instructions on installing a new battery see page 7.
1 T he colour of this flash may vary depending on the region the marker has originally been
purchased.
