How to setup Firelinx Firing System

In this tutorial you’ll learn how to setup your Firelinx Firing System. We’ll unbox the system and show you how to initially setup your Command and Firing modules.

How to connect your modules using Freedom® 2Wire

Firelinx provides Freedom® 2Wire to connect your modules, 2Wire and radio can be used at the same time. It’s not necessary, but it’s a good failsafe in case one of the wires breaks. We like to call it Freedom 2Wire because we’ve taken care of all problems and errors commonly found in 2wire systems. You don’t have to remember which side of the wire was red or black, and you can wire them in Star or Daisy Chain setups.

How to select a Wireless Channel on Firelinx

There are two options for setting your wireless channel; if you know what the wireless spectrum looks like in your area you can change the channel manually. But if you don’t know, you can use Firelinx’s spectrum analyzer which determines the best Radio Frequency (RF) channel in your area.

But remember, never enable Stealth mode while your crew is out in the field!
