The microcontroller operating the mechanisms comes with three modes of operation:
1) A pre-programmed training routine recorded at a Bundeswehr shooting range can be replicated.
2) The mechanisms are activated in a semi-random way, simulating realistic fire bursts by infantry weapons.
3) A mobile phone can be connected to the device. By calling another phone located at a shooting range, the noise of a shot during an exercise is replicated by the installation.
