| + | With system set in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYiv2PgLo6k|shooter mode]] you should be able to point the gun at various different light sources (fluorescent lights, sun, monitor, etc.) and not record a hit. If a hit is recorded without it being shot (called a false positive) then the 'Fudge Factor' needs to be increased. | ||

| + | Increasing the 'Fudge Factor' reduces your maximum range. To decrease the 'Fudge Factor' you need to investigate the noise signals. The oscilloscope is the best way to sample your noise signal. The oscilloscope probe should be paced after the receiver board and the [[fft|oscilloscope FFT]] should be used. | ||
