Initial Setup

Videos

Each section includes a video. I recommend watching the videos, as there is a lot of information to convey. If you’d prefer to watch on another device, it’s easy to find a playlist with all the videos on YouTube by searching for “briffidi getting started”. If the videos are unavailable, written instructions are included below.

You Will Need

  1. The SW1 and calibration rod.
  2. A compatible smartphone (more below).
  3. Approximately 4,000 (1.35 kg) 4.5 mm (.177 cal) steel BBs.

Install the App and Add Your SW1

  1. A phone running Android 8.1 (Oreo) or later with:

    • NFC capability
    • a physical (not virtual) gyroscope sensor
    • a shape/size that fits securely in the cradle of the SW1

    is required.

  2. If necessary, install the Briffidi SW1 app from Google Play.

  3. Place the phone near the Briffidi decal on the front of the SW1 and move it around until the NFC tag is scanned. The app will open, and the SW1 will be added and selected.
     
    If the tag won’t scan, ensure that NFC is enabled in your phone Settings. You may need to lift the SW1 to get the tag close to the NFC reader of some phones.
