Empire z2 is kinda weird

TMH · 08-25-2012, 07:28 PM

Ok so I picked up an empire z2 and I love the low profile compared to a rotor and the big mouth on it. But for some reason, when I jumped into snake, it went crazy on my and started flashing purple or something. It wasn't un jamming it self though. Any thoughts? Thank you, your help will be greatly appreciated

Look in your manual and see what that light means.

The LED colours are explained here.

Was someone else using RF on their gun? The Z2 may have mis-interpreted the signal from someone else's gun. Turn off the RF sensor to be sure this won't happen.

unless the z2 has its own rf transmitter, it should not be picking up anything else. It requires one in the gun and the hopper to work.

This.

You should know if you spent the money for it.

So then why is there an RF mode? Read Simon's thread.

Hahaha. I would do that but a guy wanted my rotor so he gave me his z2 and $20. No problem though. It's alright. If I figure out I don't like it then I have my other rotor. But I do want to try out a spire. I heard there really nice

What are you trying to point out, we just said you have to buy 2 kits for it to work. So you should know if you bought the one for your loader which is needed for it to work.

the rf mode is set to on, standard on the hopper. However, the hopper needs an rf in it to work. So, without an rf kit the hopper uses no energy and thats why it is set to on. With it on, again, it will do nothing for the hopper unless both your hopper and your gun have a z2 rf transmitter and other fr transmitters should have no affect on your hoppers activation.
