General

 Restore Default Settings – restores default settings for the various functionalities. Trigger and selector calibration as well as statistics remain unchanged.

 Restore Factory Settings – (hard reset) restores all default settings, resets your statistics, and clears adaptation data.
Cycle detection – allows to switch OFF or ON the optical gear sensor. Cycle detection OFF can be compared with the “emergency mode” for troubles with gear sensor. Most of TITAN features will be disabled, but you can still shoot on ‘AUTO’.
Thanks to the gear sensor, TITAN precisely detects in which position the cycle should finish. Therefore, even the shortest trigger action produces at least one full cycle.

Battery protection – modern LiPo and LiFe batteries are very sensitive to over-discharge. The microprocessor monitors the battery voltage constantly. When the voltage drops down to a critical level, it will not allow firing.
Battery cell – when the battery voltage drops to the specified level (in relation to one cell), the motor will vibrate. You can set: OFF, 3.2V or 3.4V per cell for LiPo battery and 2.7V or 2.9V per cell for LiFe battery.
30-Round Limit – an AEG can continuously fire max. 30 BBs. To fire more BBs, you must release the trigger before. This is protection against trigger jam. Important: in case of emergency, you can also stop firing by switching the fire selector position.

Active brake - it automatically adjusts the motor’s braking power according to your needs. This prolongs the lifespan of the motor and reduces the heat. Now you can also choose your own value depending on your needs.
Gear ratio - to make the PRE-COCKING work with the highest level of precision you should define the gears type in your AEG. Available types: STANDARD, HIGH TORQUE, HIGH SPEED, DSG, 19-TOOTH.
Typical gear ratio settings (excluding DSG and 19-tooth):
HIGH TORQUE: <15 RPS
STANDARD: 15-25 RPS
HIGH SPEED: >25 RPS
If overspin issue occurs, you should switch the gear type to the next level (e.g. STANDARD to HIGH TORQUE).
Note
Regional lock designed for German players will disable all the burst and auto options.
Note
The DSG and 19-TOOTH gear ratio options are not available for TITAN V2 NGRS.

Trigger

Pre-cocking – allows for initial spring compression, which speeds up the trigger response significantly:
AUTO MODE – the spring is automatically compressed after each shot
TRIGGER MODE – slow trigger action compresses the spring, and fast trigger action fires the shot
Please note: using PRE-COCKING increases wear and tear on the gearbox.

Pre-cocking boost – determines the strength of spring compression. The highest setting results in the best trigger response, but also mostly increases wear and tear on the gearbox.
If you are facing overspin issue, set GEAR RATIO to HIGH SPEED.

Burst mode:
FULL – every, even the shortest trigger action fires the pre-determined number of
rounds
TRIGGER – releasing the trigger while firing stops the burst sequence.
Burst – allows you to set how many BBs will be fired
ROF stabilization:
ON – ROF Control uses PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) to decrease ROF. Thanks to this, gearbox works smoothly what decreases wear and tear of AEG internal parts. The percentage value determines the PWM duty cycle and it does not reflect ROF decrease.
OFF – ROF Control adds breaks between shots to decrease ROF. It gives you more realistic experience. This option set to 50% will significantly reduce the rate of fire.
ROF control – enables a reduction in a gun’s rate of fire. You use stronger LiPo batteries, and still have a ROF just like in a real gun.

Sniper delay – lets you to set delay between each SEMI shots to simulate the delay from reload or recoil. You can set 0.5s, 1s, 2s or 3s delay. By choosing ‘VIB’ option, you can enable vibration which will inform you when the gun is ready to fire again.

Equalizer (dynamic trigger point):
OFF - to fire the next shot, you need to release the trigger until it reaches the selected trigger sensitivity level
2LVL - to fire the next shot, it is enough to release the trigger so as it changes the state of two trigger sensors or ~40% of trigger movement
1LVL - to fire the next shot, it is enough to release the trigger so as it changes the state of one trigger sensor or ~20% of trigger movement

1LVL or 2LVL are especially useful when the trigger sensitivity level is very high. Then you do not need to fully release the trigger while quickly firing on SEMI.

We designed the Sensors TAB in order to let you choose the  trigger sensitivity or ‚ trigger mode that is the best for you. Thanks to live view, you do not need to mechanically adjust your trigger. Simply choose the value and check if it suits you.

You will be warned if the trigger sensitivity value reaches extremely low level.

Selector

Fire selector mode – allows you to choose how your replica will behave on each fire selector position:
SAFE – replica will not fire after trigger pull
SEMI – one pull of the trigger will result in only one shot
BURST – one pull of the trigger enables you to shoot a pre-determined number of BBs, which is very useful in MILSLIM and when using low-caps
AUTO – pulling the trigger causes uninterrupted* series of shots until the trigger is released
*series can be limited by Round Limit

Statistics

The statistics tab contains main information about your replica performance. You can simply clear each value by clicking “Reset” button. You can also independently reset BB1 and BB2 counter.
TITAN gives you the option to check:
Rate of fire - Minimum, Average, Maximum
Trigger response - Minimum, Average, Maximum
Module’s temperature - Minimum, At this moment, Maximum
Motor current - Average AUTO, Average SEMI, Maximum Peak
Battery voltage - Minimum, Last, Maximum
Number of fired BBs - BB1, BB2, TOTAL

Note
Statistics are saved every ten seconds. If you want to save your statistics immediately, switch the fire selector to SAFE.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) tab

This TAB will help you to troubleshoot your replica in case of any issue. If you need additional help, you can contact our Support Center using  “SEND REPORT” button, or save the report using  “SAVE TO FILE” button.

If an error occurs, it will be  highlighted and  described. In such a case, we suggest to follow  ”WHAT TO DO” instructions in the first place.
