Seni trouble

[Dinger0007]

The sensi on my speed doesn't seem to work very well. I have a halo and was using white field paint and it seem to pickup one ball and miss 3 to 4 trigger pulls then one would come out.

I switched to a black/yellow worr paint and it worked alittle better not as many misses.

I did the drop test with the white paint and it seemed to never register but with the black/yellow worr paint it registered 8 out of 10 times.

What is going on?

so pull the senor out and grease underneath the sensor?

The pin rests on the sensor so when pressure is applied the sensor picks it up from the pin. Why would greasing under the sensor help.

I have the manual so if you give me page numbers i can follow better.

Or if u have aol or msn we can posting.

the reason for grease under the sensor on the COPS sensors was to avoid shock/vibration from the marker firing giving COPS a false signal that a ball was present, it basically acted like a shock absorber on a car would, however I don't know that this would help you be able to sense a ball more often.

so you grease under the sensor itself and not the sensing rod, right?

[Emmit]

do not grease the rod if you ever want it to work.

I have my speed on sensi 1 and it still fires when there are no balls in the breach?

Maybe the sensor is broken.

[jtcimp00]

okay mine did this too I just fixed it.
What I did was I lowered my lpr pressure to 70, raised dwell to 13, and lowered my mini reg just barely.
this is done with a centerflag preset at 750psi input.
mine was shooting with no paint in it too and now that my gun doesnt kick hardly at all, sensi works great.

[Dinger0007]

I don't understand how removing some shims and raising the dwell will make the sensi work correctly?

It is failing the drop test?

[captncrunch]

He's saying the vibration from his gun was making the sensi go off when there wasn't paint present, he is saying that with his current settings, the marker has less kick and it only registeres when an actual ball is present, in that case I would of reccomended the grease under the pad, but for it not firing when there is a ball there, I have no idea, since there isn't a sensitivity level.

[jtcimp00]

nope no drop off at all

ok i thought sensi senses the weight of the ball, not the vibration of the ball hitting like cops.

[jtcimp00]

I think the vibration was making the rod move somehow and making it misread. My gun was kicking like crazy before I got to tune it! All I know is that now my sensi seems to work so I am keeping my settings

Oh sorry, to kinda answer your question: I have heard that sensi is almost like cops but it can tell the pressure that the ball is putting on the rod and compensates the speed for that pressure. correct me if I am wrong on any of this. This is not my theory this is what others have told me.

[CpCnCir3]

so is there a forced sensi mode??? where it aboslutely wont fire unless there is a ball in the breach???? i was always under the impression that there was a mode like this. i hope its not just more delay modes.... can anybody inform me on this?

[jtcimp00]

there is supposed to be one like this but I am using it now and for all I can tell if there is no paint in it at all, then there is like a small delay
