Tadao - Violent Yakuza Series USB Ego 7/8 & Geo Board
|
|
IN STOCK
|
The Yakuza Series USB board for the Ego 7, Ego 8, and Geo was designed in cooperation with Violent Products. Unlike any other aftermarket Ego/Geo board, it features both an optical sensor and microswitch for the trigger, which the user can select from within the menu system. It includes both a graphical OLED based display system and full USB 2.0 support. A mini-B USB port is built right into the board, allowing you to plug it into a computer running Windows XP or Vista so you can utilize the Tengu USB interface. Tengu offers the ability to do secure firmware updates from the comfort of your home or office, create custom boot screen images, and modify settings. Boot screens can be imported and exported as bitmap image files, allowing you to create them in image editing software like Photoshop and easily share them with friends or teammates. Settings profiles are treated in a similar fashion, and can be read off your board, saved to a file, and loaded back into any of your board's profiles or active settings.
OLED (organic light emitting diode) displays have numerous advantages over traditional LCDs. They have lower power consumption, higher contrast, and, due to the manufacturing process, are sealed, making them highly resistant to vibration and moisture. Unlike LCDs, each pixel of an OLED screen is a light emitting diode and emits its own light. Power consumption is directly proportional to how many pixels are lit, making it easy to view, even in direct sunlight.
All the necessary information is shown on the OLED screen, including eye status, battery life, current fire mode and max rate of fire, and a game timer. The settings are also easily adjusted through the full text based menu system.
The Yakuza Series USB boards offer enhanced capabilities. A new, faster microcontroller runs at up to 48 Mhz, and provides integrated USB 2.0 support with standard off-the-shelf mini-B USB cables. The drivers are built into Windows, making installation very easy. The asynchronous interrupt based trigger scan is monitored at up to 12 million times per second. Additional adjustibility includes finer, more accurate rate of fire, debounce, and dwell increments, plus specific PSP/Millennium fire mode parameters to change the semi-start-shots and semi-reset times. 5 user customizable profiles are now standard, and can be edited through the OLED screen or with the Tengu USB interface on your computer. The rate of fire range has been expanded to 5-30 balls per second to ensure compliance with any league rule changes in the future.
Included is Tadao's industry first anti-breech bounce software, which helps to eliminate chops when a loader is running low on paint and can't provide a steady feed rate. RF support is also present with the inclusion of a dedicated transmitter socket and wiring harness.
The circuit board is the most important part of any electronic paintball marker, and upgrading it can enhance all the performance characteristics. Tadao's leading edge Yakuza Series USB boards provide the user with the ultimate in adjustability and speed, plus the ease-of-use of the Tengu USB interface so you can update your board's firmware and modify settings/graphics from home or office.
Note: USB cable is not included. Cables are sold separately. The cable in use is a mini-B to A type, and is commonly found with digital cameras, Blackberry phones, and other USB accessories, so you may already have one.
