Skylighter's line of stage and theatrical products can be used indoors and outdoors depending on the situation. They should only be used by trained professionals. Be sure and test every single effect or device you are using before using it indoors or in front of a live audience. The instructions that come with the products are important. They have been written by professionals who use these products and know how to use them safely. Pyrotechnic special effects can be quite dangerous even when used in small amounts, but especially if you exceed recommended sizes.

GN6010

This is a capacitor-discharge (CD) 10-cue (or channel) firing box. It is used to remotely fire one or more electric matches. Each channel (or cue) can fire 1-50 matches wired in series (daisy-chained). This rugged system is housed in a 5 inch x 6 inch x 1.5 inch thick aluminum case. On the back panel are a key lock switch for main power and a DB25F receptacle for output to our GN6080 100 foot cable (not included) and our GN6090 10 Position Slat (not included). On the top cover there is a "TEST/ARM" mode switch, an "ON/OFF" power switch; a "FIRE/OFF" switch with ready-light; a "push to test" switch with an LED light for continuity; and a rotary switch to select the desired cue (1 through 10). Normal firing procedure is to first connect one or more electric matches to the pyrotechnic device(s) being fired. Then connect the electric matches to the GN6090 slat. Then connect the slat to the GN6080 100 foot cable. Then connect the cable to the firing box at the DB25F receptacle. When you are ready to use your system, turn the power switch on. The turn the arming switch to "Test" mode and the rotary switch to the first cue number to test. Then push the test button to see if the red LED lights up in the built-in circuit tester. If it does, you have good continuity through that firing circuit. Turn the rotary switch to each of the remaining cues, repeating the continuity test as you go, until all firing circuits have been tested. When you are ready to fire, change the arming switch to "Arm". Move the rotary switch to the first position (usually #1), and then press the Fire switch, which will fire all the electric matches on that cue. With a new "C" alkaline battery (one required, not included), the unit will re-charge in 10 seconds. The system will generate 300 volts (rated at 8.7 joules).
