'Rhinofire' Wired Sequencer
Original Rhinofire firework sequencer for quick and easy timed fireworks
The Problem
The SFX industry typically uses a mix of firework firing systems, home-brew firing systems, or feature-limited kit from other manufacturers.
To achieve remote firing of pyro or variable timing of solenoids requires a mix of single hit remote firing systems, standalone sequencers, time-delay relay boxes and various external battery packs and cables.
This is messy, unreliable and hard to fault find.
We have developed a one box unified solution designed specifically for the demanding SFX environment.
Built for SFX
Designed from the ground up for use in the demanding Film & TV SFX environment. This is not a complicated firework firing system re-purposed for SFX pyrotechnics. Capable and flexible while staying simple, reliable and extremely easy to use.
Core Features
✅ Simple, reliable, easy to use. No complex menus. Pick it up after months and it still makes sense. One screen control with large, tactile switches built for gloved hands and field use.
✅ Full wireless control. Rugged wireless handheld remote + field unit. Secure two-way radio link shows signal strength and channel status in real time.
✅ Optional wired trigger. Trigger the sequence with a voltage pulse from another source or our Trigger Unit.
✅ Manual fire mode. Large FIRE button lets you step through channels instantly. Press and release to advance with no firing delay. Skip channels with UP/DOWN. Hold-on times are fully respected per channel.
✅ Programmed sequences. Set same/different delays per channel from 0.00s to 9.99s and hold times from 0.05s to 9.99s for precise timing control.
✅ Flexible sequencing. Mix delays, simultaneous firing (0 delay), and custom hold-on times per channel. Use RUN mode to safely preview before firing.
✅ Expandable. Interlink units with cable for seamless long sequences.
✅ Solenoids & pyrotechnics. Switch between 12V and 24V operation for full compatibility with pyrotechnics and solenoids.
✅ Power options. Internal battery for portability or optional external battery connector for visual disconnect and peace of mind.
... a very useful firing system tool with all features you need!...
