User Guides
- DryFire Version 5.x User Guide. Version 5.x was released in ???, 2023.
Version 5.x provides support for both the DryFire Projection System (DPS) and the DryFire Laser Systems (DLS).
Access to the User Guide when using DryFire
DPS connects to your PC/laptop via Wi-Fi, this means you cannot read the User Guide while using DryFire unless you disconnect from DPS and connect to the Internet via your home Wi-Fi router.
We recommend you access the User Guide with your smartphone or tablet - that way you have all the information in your hand while setting things up and using DryFire - including:
- How do I ... Guide: answers to many of your "How do I ...?" questions.
- Trouble shooter: help when things don't work as expected.
Support requests
The DryFire software contains a built-in function to request support.
- Click on "Settings", then "Support" then "Contact support".
- Enter your email address.
- Provide a brief description of the problem.
- Click on "Send".
As well as sending us your details, the software will also send us very detailed log files so we can set up a system in exactly the same way as yours. This is vitally important because we can't fix things we can't see.
After we receive you request we may contact you by email for more details.
Before requesting help
Please check:
- the User Guide
- the How do I.. Guide
- the Trouble shooter page
- the Technical support page
Our latest software, version 5.4, was released in May, 2022.
DryFire is a "mature" product that has been on the market for over 20 years. It is not impossible to find bugs in the software - if we find any, we fix them!
So, before contacting us, please check the documentation available here. An hour's careful reading will have you shooting at targets, and getting detailed feedback, far faster than contacting us.
Let's be honest, DryFire contains a lot of functions to improve your shooting and it will take time for you to get the best out of it. Reading the User Guide a couple of times would be a good start - we wrote it to help you but, if it doesn't help, we will rewrite it!
Don't get us wrong, if you have a problem not covered by the documentation, we will help you resolve it - we are proud of DryFire and we want you to enjoy the benefits it provides.
Returning a unit
Please don't send a system to us before letting us know why your want to return the unit.
Please click here if we ask you to return a system for any reason.
Note about older software and hardware
Like many software and hardware companies we try to provide support for our systems for as long as possible - even beyond the warranty period.
However, we cannot continue to support old hardware and software for ever for a number of reasons:
- The people who wrote it, or designed, it may have left the company, retired or died.
- We cannot keep examples of every hardware item we manufacture - we simply don't have the kit to try things on.
- Software tools (provided by others - like Microsoft) go out of date and are no longer supported.
So, we have to draw a line.
