TO CHANGE THE VALUE OF A SETTING:

1

While in configuration mode, pull the trigger and hold it for more than one second. The LED will flash to 
indicate the previous setting. After that, you can set the new value with the trigger. For example, if you want 
to change the trigger sensitivity to 7 units:

2

Cycle through menus by pulling and releasing the trigger until the LED lights GREEN (trigger sensitivity).

3

Pull and hold the trigger until the LED starts to flash (factory default for trigger sensitivity setting is 5 units, 
so the LED will flash 5 times).

4

When the LED stops flashing, pull and release the trigger seven times in a fast pace. The new value is set 
after you haven't touched the trigger for one second. The LED will cycle through all colors to indicate that 
the new value is saved. All other configurations are changed the same way. Just as in part 2 above, change 
the mode to RED for "dwell" or BLUE for "ROF" to change the desired configurations.

5

To exit configuration mode, set DIP 2 to the off position.

Battery

Standard 9V batteries will last for about 40,000 shots. Please be aware that there are substantial differences in per-
formance 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 bat-
tery voltage starts to go too low, you will notice your velocity starts to decrease and the board can turn off. For tour-
nament 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. When inserting a new
battery notice the + and - marks on the board. The positive lead of the 9V battery goes to the left and the negative
lead to the right. Inserting the battery backwards does not damage the board but it will not function.

NOTE: If the marker will not function with the eye on, there is a good chance the battery needs to be changed.

• 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 DM6’s velocity, causing it to 

become inconsistent and/or low.

Configuration Mode -

The following settings can only be modified in configuration mode. To activate the 
configuration mode, turn your marker off and set DIP switch 2 to the ON position. Next, turn your marker on. 
The LED's cycle through all colors for one second to indicate that you have entered the configuration mode. 
To cycle through different settings, pull and release the trigger. 
Configuration mode has 4 settings that can be changed.

Green - Trigger Sensitivity

Values 1 - 20 (factory default 5)
Trigger sensitivity is the amount of time that the trigger has to be released before the next trigger pull is allowed. In some 
situations with too low of a value, the DM6 can register more trigger pulls than what was actually pulled. This can cause 
the DM6 to shoot full auto, even in semi-automatic mode. To fix this, set trigger sensitivity setting higher.

Red - Dwell 

Values 1 - 30 (factory default 18)
Dwell is the amount of time that the solenoid will be activated. Follow these steps for the best way to set your dwell:
• Remove loader and any paintballs from the DM6 marker.
• With the dwell set at 10, start increasing the value until the marker begins to fire.
• When you reach the setting where the marker begins to fire, get some paint and a loader and go to a chronograph.
• Increase the dwell until you see no increase in the velocity. This is the optimal dwell setting to be used.

Blue - Rate Of Fire (ROF)

Values 1 - 20 (factory default 20bps)

[When Anti Chop Eye (ACE) is deactivated]

The ROF setting is used to set the maximum rate of fire of the DM6. The values do not correspond directly to a certain 
Balls Per Second (BPS) value. You will need to use the table below to locate your desired maximum ROF setting. 
The factory setting is 20 (30bps).

Yellow - Firing Mode

Values 1 - 3 (default 1) 
This setting changes the Firing mode of the DM6. Default is semiautomatic. In the semiautomatic mode, one trigger pull 
shoots out one paintball. The PSP/NPPL mode and The Millennium mode follow the rules of the 
paintball tournaments series.
Value    1     -     NPPL/Semi automatic Mode
Value    2    -     PSP Mode
Value    3    -     Millennium Mode

NOTE:

You cannot turn your marker off with the power button when the marker is in configuration mode. You must first set DIP switch 2 to the off position.
