CHECKING CONFIGURATIONS
You can check your DIP switch configuration by pulling and holding the trigger when you turn the marker on. Hold the
trigger until the LED starts flashing. Red indicates the eye sensitivity setting and blue the anti bolt stick (ABS) setting
(1 flash = off and 2 flashes = on). For example, if your eye sensitivity is 3 and ABS is ON then the LED will flash red three
times and blue two times.
BATTERY
Standard 9V batteries will last for about 40,000 shots. Please be aware that there are substantial differences in
performance between different brands of batteries. Use of high quality alkaline or lithium ion batteries is recommended
for maximum battery life. If you plan not to use your marker for a long period of time (a month), it is recommended that
you remove the battery from the marker. An intermittent blinking blue light indicates a low battery. A low battery can
cause malfunctions to the marker. In this case, the battery should be changed as soon as possible. When the battery
voltage starts to go too low, you will notice your velocity starts to decrease and the board can turn off. For tournament
use, it is recommended to change the battery for each tournament. When changing your battery, take special care to
ensure the wiring harness is not pinched under the battery
(see figure 1).
CHANGING THE BATTERY
The battery is housed on the right side of the grip frame. To access the battery, remove the three screws holding the
right side grip panel down. Use a 3/32” Allen wrench. Carefully lift the battery out of the frame, taking care not to
damage the battery lead wires.
When inserting a new battery, make sure the solenoid and eye wires are pushed into the wire passage at the rear of the
frame. This will ensure that the wires are not pinched or cut between the battery and the frame.
NOTE: IF THE MARKER WILL NOT FUNCTION WITH
THE EYE ON, THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THE
BATTERY NEEDS TO BE CHANGED.
DM5 BOARD
- Settings and Functions (continued)
• A low battery will not be able to power
both the ACE eye and the trigger switch,
causing ACE eye failure.
• If the battery is low, it may not be able to
power the solenoid correctly. This will
affect the DM5’s velocity, causing it to
become inconsistent and/or low.
