The FCC Wants You to Know
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures:
a) Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
b) Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
c) Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
d) Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician.
FCC Warning
Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could
void the user authority to operate the equipment under FCC Rules.
Instructions concerning human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic fields.
To comply with FCC Section1.307(b)(1) for human exposure to
radio frequency electromagnetic fields, implement the following
instruction:
The equipment user should keep a distance of at least 20 cm.
between the equipment antenna and his body or any other person.

Introduction
Introduction
Foreword
Congratulations for purchasing the Pyrologic 2000 wireless fireworks shooting
system. We trust you will enjoy the unique features of this unparalleled system. The
following instructions will familiarize you with the features and operation of this
friendly system.
Thank you for choosing Pyrologic.
General information
Pyrologic 2000 is a wireless firework shooting system. Using a central Terminal Unit
(TU), a multitude of Remote Control Units (RCU's) are controlled by a coded Radio
Frequency link in order to fire upon command a firework electrically connected to
each RCU of choice.
The TU, either hand-held or installed into a BU, must be operated at a minimum
height of 0.6 meter from ground. The RCU must be installed at a minimum height of
0.6 meter from ground. Under such conditions the effective range between the TU
and any RCU is maximum 65 meters.
By connecting an Extension Unit (XU) to the BU using a standard telephone cable,
the RCU's can be controlled by the TU via the XU. The XU must be operated at a
minimum height of 0.6 meter from ground. The RCU must be installed at a minimum
height of 0.6 meter from ground. Under such conditions the effective range between
the XU and any RCU is maximum 65 meters.
System Components Definition
• Terminal Unit (TU)
• Terminal Unit Master Key (MK)
• Base Unit (BU)
• Extension Unit (XU)
• External PTT (XPTT)
• Remote Controlled Unit (RCU)
• Remote Controlled Unit for controlling 16 extensions (RCU-16).

Introduction
Basic System Characteristics
The normal operating range of the Pyrologic-2000 system is 65 meters from TU to
RCU. This range can be extended by connecting an XU to a BU to which a TU is
mounted. When mounting TU to BU, an XPTT can be attached to the BU. The range
extension is in accordance to the length of the extension cable of the XU connecting
between the BU to the XU. The RCUs are assigned to the TU by individual
programming communicated through the one-way RF link between TU and RCU.
Subsequently the operation of the RCUs is controlled by the TU through a one-way
RF link between TU and RCU, or alternatively by a wired link between the BU onto
which the TU is mounted and the XU, continued by a one-way RF link between XU
and RCU.
The system operates at the 418 MHz frequency and has been designed to comply
with the applicable FCC regulations (pending approval).

Safety and Operational Instructions
Safety and Operational Instructions
The operation of fireworks or pyrotechnics when using the Pyrologic 2000 system is
identical to operation using appropriate wiring instead of the RF command link. All
applicable laws and regulations regarding fireworks operation must be strictly
adhered.
When you purchase the system the RCUs are in generic state. The RCUs have to be
assigned to a specific TU Master Key according to the instructions detailed in this
manual.
When using the system for the first time and until you have learned to operate the
system correctly, please attach LEDs instead of squibs to the RCU squib connections
and otherwise operate the system according to the standard operation instructions, in
order to verify that you have mastered each and every detail of system operation.
Under no circumstances open or tamper the system components. Warranty will void
if any unauthorized attempt will be done to open or tamper system units.
Coping with External Transmission Disturbances: Pyrologic 2000 is a wireless
system that is designed according to the FCC regulations. Please check the system to
verify that there is no external interference. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES THE
SYSTEM WILL FIRE WITHOUT OPERATOR COMMAND.
