Sci-Fi Universal Board Wiring Manual Thanks for purchasing a Sci-Fi Board! Please join the Sci-Fi Board Group on Facebook and follow on YouTube. This is where I make announcements, post installation tips, inform you of software updates for you board, and answer frequently asked questions. https://www.facebook.com/groups/248635068944842/ A Paintball Marker is NOT a toy. Misuse can result in injury or death. Please understand the operation of this board before using it. Test your marker using safe practices to ensure proper board settings. Always make sure your board uses settings approved by the paintball field or event. ALWAYS wear eye protection that is specifically designed for paintball & conforms to the ASTM / CE standards.
See standard board manual for operating instructions. The board manual can be found on the website www.scifi-paintball.com/support 1) Hold the Trigger while turning on the board until the LED is Solid to enter MENU mode & connect using the Android or iOS app. 2) While the RGB-LED is White, hold the trigger for 5 seconds to return to Firing mode. Pro Wiring Tips: 1) Solder your wire connections, don’t “twist & tape”. 2) Remove or tape unused wires. Loose wires can cause electrical damage to electrical devices. 3) Start with the battery and trigger switch, then test board operation. 4) Test each circuit individually one-by-one as they are installed. If something doesn’t work, power off the board immediately to prevent damage to board. 5) Don’t just wire the whole board and hope it works. That will make troubleshooting more difficult. Wire numbers:
Wire Functions:
Optional External LED: This circuit board has the standard RGB-LED common to all Sci-Fi Boards; however it will not be visible if the board is enclosed inside the marker. Wire 1 and Wire 2 allow the use to install an optional single-color LED to be used for external indicator. A 1K Ohm current-limiting resistor is already installed on the board, in series with Wire 1. Wire 2 is tied to board common.
Trigger Switch: Wire 3 and Wire 4 should connect to a Normally-Open switch or pushbutton to be used for the trigger. Wire 3 is the active-low trigger input, and Wire 4 is tied to board common.
Optional Eye Sensor Photo-Transistor: Wire 5 and Wire 6 are for the Eye Sensor Photo-Transistor. Wire 5 is the analog eye input, and is tied high with a 4.7K Ohm pull-up resistor. Wire 6 is for the transistor emitter, and is tied to board common. Optional Eye Sensor IR-Emitter LED: Wire 7 and Wire 8 are for the Eye Sensor IR-Emitter LED. A 270 Ohm current-limiting resistor is already installed on the board, in series with Wire 7. Wire 8 is tied to board common.
