KEY FEATURES: MC5 Remote Starter Kit
SIMPLE No programming required, and less than 15 seconds from Off to Ready-to-Fire
1) SELECT: turn Remote selector switch to EB (electrical blasting/electric breech) or ST (shock tubes)
2) CONNECT: connect blasting load after Link LED starts flashing
3) LINK: generate a Secure Link by pressing, and immediately releasing Arm button; wait for solid Link LED
4) ARM: click and maintain Arm button; wait for the ready-to-fire vibration, and Arm LED (~5 to 7 seconds)
5) FIRE: maintain Arm, and click Fire button; once fired, release both buttons
SECURE Factory-paired set only share half-duplex communication with each other, and only after linking
Requires two separate and distinct operations to fire, and cannot fire until fully charged
If the Arm button is released (prior to pressing Fire) the Remote instantly aborts, and returns to a safe state
The Remote auto aborts if communication is lost with the Controller for a specific period of time
A Built-In Test confirms safety and functionality before connecting the explosive train; locks-out controls on a fault
