hi...i have the stock settings on my board and i want to change that settings but i dont know in how much i have to put my dwell (i dont have QEV)..please help me
If i Have it on mode up than i shoot and turn my gun off , when i turn it back on can i just tap the power button to go up in firing modes or will i have to crack out the allen keys and hit the program key again?
hey seen ur vid. lot of help.........thanks ok i have a qev u said to put my dwell to 8-12 meaning what how manny the light blinks......n if i set my dwell too 8-12 what should i set my rof..........please help me thanks.........
Dwell is how long your bolt stay's forward before returnin back to be ready for the next shot. Allowing more air to propell the ball, and lowering efficiency, the proper dwell is crutial
when your gun is on your eyes are on but when you push the power button again it will switch off your eyes and all you have to do to switch the eyes on again is to push the power buton . have you just bought the gun
do you know why my ion only shoots little pops the bolt doesnt even move?? i have the stock board and a 360 QEV?? i know its somthing to do with the QEV but i dont know how to get it to shoot right. could you tell me what you think??
thats not true on the ion a dwell of 0 is actually an 8ms minimum then each dwell increment is .5 of a milisecond so a dwell of 12 is 8 + .5(12) = 14ms. And dwell is actually the amount of time the board gives power to the solenoid so it is actually the amount of time allowed for the bolt to move/stay forward.
Im getting an Ion soon and i dont know what the fuck im doing.. so the stock board has ramping allready in it? and do you always need to take off your grips?
its better to find the lowest dwell that cycles your marker... I just say 45 because its the highest dwell that shoots 17 bps and since everyones guns are different as a general rule i say 45 because ive had some people tell me the bolt wont cycle at 45. so keep a high success rate of my advice while shooting 17 bps i say 45...
also at any dwell lower than 45 if you put your Recharge to zero, the board will automatically cap it to seventeen.
The stock board works great and is really simple, and easy (for me) to understand, the modes are Semi Auto, Ramping (called rebound in the manual), 3 shot burst, and full auto.
u need a combination of 62... 45 dwell will need 17 recharge... 45 + 17 = 62... so if your using a dwell of 12... 62 - 12 = 50, you need a recharge of 50, I made a program to calculate all this add me on MSN, if you want me to send it to you... Gogeata__7@hotmail . com
thanks a lot for this video i wasnt going to buy an ion cuz of how hard i thought it would be to change the settings and stuff but after watching this vid i am for sure buying an ion!
a QEV stands for Quick exhaust valve its basically what it says a quick exhaust valve which allows air to vent out of the front of the bolt faster and gives you much faster cycle speeds because the bolt moves forward faster. This large increase in cycle speed allows you to lower your dwell and use less air.
dwell is how much air goes into the solenoid if it is too high the efficiency will be bad and if it too low it wont recock so like mike said with qev 8-12 and without a qev 45-50
thank you so much PBmike.. i was fuckin around with it when i got my ion .. so it was so slow.. then i just watched this .. and it saved me! haha thanks
its all personal preferance but i reccomend either the NDZ rollers or the Critical because they have those set screws that push the microswitch as you can see in the video.
When power is given to the solenoid it pushes the armature up when this happens (on the ion) air from the front of the bolt is allowed to escape. The longer the dwell time the longer the armature stays up and the longer the bolt is allowed to move/stay forward, so a low dwell might not let the bolt reach the sealed forward position before the armature comes back and blocks the air escaping, and a dwell too long keeps the bolt forward too long wasting air.
thanks alot dude i did everything you said as i watched it my ion shots alot better and faster now good vid. but i also adjusted my trigger closer. lol so that could be why.

dwell is the amount of time (in mile seconds) it takes your bolt to move forward and back again.
(ex: 30 dwell = 30 mile seconds forward and back)

thats not true on the ion a dwell of 0 is actually an 8ms minimum then each dwell increment is .5 of a milisecond so a dwell of 12 is 8 + .5(12) = 14ms.

Cmoregregory 4 years ago
what is dwell and what is the mode where you pull the trigger it shoots and when you let go of the trigger it shoots?
Cmoregregory 4 years ago
that mode is auto response mode.. its not on the stock ion
dwell is the amount of time you allow the solenoid to stay open (the longer the solenoid is open the more time the bolt has to move/stay forward)

what board is that mode on?

sorry to be a bother but what does the settings need to be to shoot 17 bps
davidveltri101 4 years ago
if you have a recharge of 0 then any dwell at 45 or lower will shoot 17bps... otherwise a combination of 45 will work
PbMike2005 4 years ago
so i need my dwell at 12 and recharge of 50 or
45 for dwell and 17 recharge witch one is more gas effecient thank you so much!
davidveltri101 4 years ago
dude any combination of dwell + recharge that equals 62 will shoot 15 BPS
PbMike2005 4 years ago
what do you need to set the dwell and rof at to get 15 bps
davidveltri101 4 years ago
u need a combination of 62... 45 dwell will need 17 recharge... 45 + 17 = 62... so if your using a dwell of 12... 62 - 12 = 50, you need a recharge of 50, I made a program to calculate all this add me on MSN, if you want me to send it to you... Gogeata__7@hotmail . com

Nppl- uses semi

CrazyCheezBoy666 5 years ago
Hey dude, I don't have an Electronic gun that has dwell settings, so I really don't know what dwell is, could you tell me what it is?
CrazyCheezBoy666 5 years ago
Dwell is the time your board gives power to the solenoid.
PbMike2005 5 years ago
When power is given to the solenoid it pushes the armature up when this happens (on the ion) air from the front of the bolt is allowed to escape. The longer the dwell time the longer the armature stays up and the longer the bolt is allowed to move/stay forward, so a low dwell might not let the bolt reach the sealed forward position before the armature comes back and blocks the air escaping, and a dwell too long keeps the bolt forward too long wasting air.
