Ecs and CS designs question

[nomad01]

If I got my cricket board programed and also bought the new ramping board from CS Designs, could I use the eyes and not use the ramping mode and still have a high ROF cap. On their website, it said without ramping mode on, it would be capped at 13 bps. Will the ECS override this? How good are the ramping board's eyes? Is there a cheaper way to get eyes? Also, if my board is locked from programing, can they bypass it? Thanks. Can I adjust the max ramping BPS on the board?

well this baord is made for the NXL or atleast to fit NXL rules. so im pretty sure it will only ramp to 15 bps. and im almost positive there is a way to bypass the tourney lock. most eyes are very expensive. mostly 150. if you get the genesis or morlock then mabe a little cheaper but then you have to know how to install them. i dont know what the price is on the CS baord though. call raypb.com. go on thier web site and get thier number. they hae great customer service and are very knowlegeable about impys. since they carry this baord, im sure tehy can tell you everything you want to know.

Doesnt the ramping board come with eyes?

[toothpastedog]

get the one in testing from FOM:

pm FOM about it...

oh yes, and epbo's is an upgrade for a vision board, so you would need to get vision, then put the CS daughter board on it. Unless you already have a vision board, you are better off buying a WAS board, mini morlock, or preditor II board.

no, actually TPD you have your info backwards. EPBO's CS board converts a NON-VISION cricket to vision with the CS daughter board. and yes, it will run off ECS programming. I believe that with the ramping mode turned off, the 13.7 bps rof cap will be overriden with the ecs since it is not capped. it is a completely different board(well at least you can buy it as one) i thought i had to point out the correct info(no offense TPD). oh, and the CS vision can ramp up to 19 bps.

:agree:

For once, TPD is wrong......:P

[nomad01]

So if I buy the cs daughter board, it will come with eyes and I can just plug it into my cricket board? Can I limit the BPS on the ramping mode?

[i_hate_rap]

yes the board will just plug in. and yes...TPD wrong?

[Dark Master]

Sadly, yes, TPD was wrong, now I feel that tomorrow something even worse will happen...like UPS would say they lost my equalizer board when I go to pick it up....:paranoid:

Anyway, with the CS board, it comes with a daughter board.
It works by first going from the Cricket board, then to the ramping board, which has the eye on it, then it goes to the solenoid.

How good are the eyes for this board? If I get this and my board ECS programed will it be a little bit like the equilizer board(feature wize)?

[i_hate_rap]

ok, to put it in perspective, the eyes for the CS Vision are better than the Smart Parts vision(which works very good) but the actual eye technology is not as good as WAS. dont get discouraged, though. even though ecs/cs vision will have slightly worse eye logic, it should be easily capable of reading any paint and should work perfect for any situation it will be exposed to. for 80-100 bucks you will pay for the combo, in my mind, it will equal if not out perform WAS in price to performance ratio. You will not only uncap the stock board and have an eye on the gun, you will have additional firing modes. that can be real fun :D

[toothpastedog]

:laugh: what fun we all have when i make a misstake... :P :rolleyes:

so, tell, me, can some one explain, for future refference, the differences between the board he was talking about, and epbo's board. was he just wanting to know about ecs programing?

[i_hate_rap]

yeah we do have a little fun...but anyway. he wanted to know about using an ECS programmed board WITH the CS designs vision board. As we know now, the CS Vision board is a daughterboard for a standard Non-Vision cricket. You can buy it at EPBO. ECS programmed boards are stock cricket boards programmed so they have no rof cap(or at least a very high one, like 30 bps or something) and have additional firing modes like 3-round burst, full auto, etc. The ecs programming can be had 2 ways. you can either send your board to a place like this (http://www.ecsprodigy.com/) , or you can buy a whole new board with it pre-programmed from EPBO. He wanted to know if by using the ECS motherboard and the CS daughterboard, if he would be able to use the ramping feature, and when he turns ramping off so it is only semi if he would override the ECS programming. Both of theses are very true. When the ramping is off, you have access to all of the ECS features. What i am not really sure about is if when ramping is on, if i can set the ECS like to 11 bps and have the gun still ramp. that would be kick arse.:D

[nomad01]

Is this board legal, or does it need to be capped at 15 BPS?

[toothpastedog]

okay, so it's based of the an ecs vision board...

[nomad01]

Yes, except you dont need ECS. It will work with a stock cricket board.

[toothpastedog]

yes, that i know, all it is is ecs programing... all you need is a cable ;)

[nomad01]

I can program my own board? How? What if it is locked?

[toothpastedog]

look in that link in my sig that says "Why Support the Devil"
