This unit is the most simple, compact and economical production Pyromac. Initially created for a small audience of “fans” of pyrotechnics, has extended more and more the number of sales among Pyrotechnic professionals. This note to the simple functions it provides.
The 12 lines firing activated by remote control, allow you to connect more igniters at the same time (the number of igniters depends on their technical characteristics, the distance at which they are placed and the type of cable used, it comes to approximately twenty igniters in series per channel).

The electronic internal management is developed with the latest technologies on the market. The activation of the lines takes place through specific electronic components at solid state: avoiding the mechanical contact (relay) avoids several encounter any difficulties of wear over time and malfunctions due to violent shock or vibration. It sometimes happens that due to incorrect connection of the igniters, or because of the fallout of smoldering material, can be generated short circuit the wires. The technology used in the Pyromac system, limits in automatic mode the output current, avoiding any unnecessary any kind of damage to the system or to the cables. Surely the igniter with the short circuit can not be fired, but all the rest of the show will continue without drawbacks.
The 3 led in the lower right corner have the function of monitoring the battery’s voltage, signaling when you are running low. The autonomy of the unit in “armed and ready to shoot” can be up to several days. The pyrotechnic can therefore rest assured even if it has to arm the unit for several hours before the show or if he has no chance to recharge before another use.

The remote control has a range of about 250 meters in open space. Its power is from a slide switch on the side of the transmitter, allowing the safety in the moments before the show.
There is also the possibility to set the same encoding transmission on multiple control units, so that you can manage multiple units with a single remote control. Think, for example to shows with 3 stations launch the same (perhaps several tens of meters away from each other): in this case by setting the three units with the same coding will be possible to control the three locations at the same time in the same way, thus avoiding lay hundreds of feet of wire and thus saving several hours of work.
The test function provides that the terminals, to which it is connected properly an igniter ready to use, it turns on a LED confirmation. In the empty channels, with igniters have already been used, failure or poorly wired, the LED will remain off.
The terminals used (QuickClips) allow the insertion and the perfect tightening of one or more wires. You simply press with two fingers on the outside of the plastic making it then scroll down, insert the wire or wires already stripped within the space that is created between the outer plastic and steel center, and then release the outside. A powerful spring will tighten the conductor ensuring perfect electrical contact. There is no hole where threading of the wire into the central cylinder: the conductor is simply placed vertically between the outer plastic and the metal center at any point. This unit was created to give the opportunity to the Pyrotecnics to ignite their shows even at a distance but on occasions it was impossible to have a cable connection.
This is for the simple fact that having a radio control means less time setting up and dismantling of the show, viewers can prevent any “burning” in the cables, and it is still more convenient to handle in general. Thanks to the evolution that there has been in the field of radio communication is also possible to arrive at considerable distances (250 meters for this unit, for others several miles) managing ignitions in total safety. The transmitters and the control units have an internal code that is set so that it is different for each device, so as to perform shows in the same shooting area without interference problems between the various firing systems in use.
There is also the possibility to set the same encoding transmission on multiple control units, so that you can manage multiple units with a single remote control. Think, for example to shows with 3 stations launch the same effects (perhaps several tens of meters away from each other): in this case by setting the three units with the same encoding, it will be possible to control the three stations simultaneously so equal, thus avoiding lay hundreds of feet of wire, and thus saving several hours of work.
