SureFire Digital Airburst Slave Module Addressing

Airburst 48 channel slave modules should occupy 3 consecutive Encoder numbers. This is selectable

by the encoders.

48-channel Airburst slaves and 16-channel slaves can be congured to run from the same controller

so long as there is no address conict.

Important Note

Pyro Logic Controller SureFire Slave Module Safe Field Operation Procedure

Read and familiarize yourself with the operators manuals for these products. If there is something

you do not understand about the addressing and operation of the SureFire system, consult qualied

personnel.

DO NOT connect ANY pyro devices to the system prior to running the following steps. You run the

risk of injury or death to yourself and your co-workers.

1. Place all slave modules in position. The system is designed for modules to be placed in close

proximity to the pyrotechnic eects to avoid long runs of cable from the channel outputs to the

pyro eects or matches.

2. In the case of regular eects, keep the modules at least six feet from the eect. Dust and debris

from these eects may eect the operation of the slave modules over the long term.

3. In the case of ‘concussion’ eects, place the modules at least 15 feet from the concussion pots.

The shock from the concussions can damage the electronics of the module and/or shake the

communication or AC connections loose.

4. Run all communication and AC cables to the modules.

5. Set up the PyroLogic controller.

6. Plug all communication cables into the controller.

7. With the SAFE/ARM key in the SAFE position and the SLAVE POWER key in the OFF position, recall

the show you intend to run.

8. All slaves should be powered on and all 16 Red channel LEDs should be lit. The Green Power LED

should be lit. The Yellow scan LED should NOT be lit. (See Trouble Shooting).

9. From the controller, identify all on line modules by turning the encoder. On-line modules will

show all 16 green match LEDs lit when the module select knob is turned to the address of the

module.

10. Turn the SLAVE POWER key switch ‘ON’. Firing and match test current is now applied to all module

output channels. This test conrms communication between the controller and all slave mod-

ules.

11. Investigate each slave for faults. All 16 Red channel LEDs should be o. (If there are any Red

channel LEDs still lit, see trouble shooting). The Green Power LED and the Yellow scan LED should

be lit. (See Trouble Shooting).
