2.3 Display/encoder
The display shows the velocity of the prior shot and also allows for the user to select
various firing modes as well as the number of active driver stages. The display also allows the
user to set the gun on safe and displays a warning when the gun is set to safe.
2.4 Main fuse
The main fuse of the EMG-01A is a 40A automotive fuse which acts as a protection
against certain types of over-current and also serves as the primary power switch of the EMG-
01A. It may be used as the means to power up the gun rather than removing the battery. It is
recommended to leave the battery in place and remove the main fuse rather than removing the
battery after each use.
2.5 Battery
The EMG-01A contains a Lithium Polymer battery. As with any device containing a large
lithium battery, it presents a number of hazards including shock, fire, explosion or venting of
toxic gas. Always store the gun and battery in a cool, dry environment indoors, away from any
flammable materials.
2.6 Trigger
- The Main Fuse may be used as a power switch. It is always recommended to remove the
fuse before powering down the gun in preparation for storage.
- Small sparks may be observed when you first connect the main fuse after a long period of
inactivity. This is normal.
- Always insert the main fuse in one fluid motion. If the fuse breaks electrical contact during
startup, remove it, wait for the capacitors to fully discharge, and try again. Multiple fuse
connections during startup may result in problems with the encoder or secondary
microcontroller.
- The EMG-01A contains a large 6S Lithium Polymer battery. Never leave a charged
battery unattended and always store in a cool , dry environment.
- Take care not to pinch the wires when closing the battery compartment.
- Always pull back the release lever before closing the battery compartment. “Slamming”
the battery compartment closed without depressing the release lever will damage the
retaining mechanism and will shorten the lifespan of the gun.
- Do not exert excessive pressure on the trigger. It is a fragile component.
