This section covers how to use the myriad of features available on all saber configurations. From basic functions like igniting the saber's blade to more advanced features like adjusting clash detection (only available on Neo Sabers), this is where you can learn about everything your saber is capable of.
This is the state your saber will be in straight out of the box.
To turn on your saber, unscrew the pommel, partially remove your chassis and flip the kill switch ON.
Reinsert the chassis and reattach the pommel. Your saber will automatically be in ACTIVE MODE.
DEEP SLEEP
The saber will only use enough battery to wait for input.
It will always return to Deep Sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity.
This is the mode your saber will be in straight out of the box.
