Electrical Firing Systems
This page comprehensively covers the use and debugging of several analog pinboard-style firing systems. You will likely encounter one of these systems or one very similar to it throughout your pyro adventure. The concepts presented here are fairly universal, but you should always consult the user manual of any given system for safe operation before use. Be sure to watch all training videos. If interested in learning the Pyrodigital computerized firing system, that is covered in the advanced section.
