Description

The PFS Pocket is a small handheld transmitter, which is perfectly suitable for magicians, in the SFX area, as well as for fast production processes and has proven itself. Thanks to its small dimensions it not only fits everywhere, you can also operate it with only one hand.

There are numerous applications where you simply cannot take a large controller with you, for example when using G-Flames inside a stadium, where you have to set up the show extremely fast, start it and take it down just as quickly.

With the PFS Pocket the number of firing cues is limited to 6. At first glance, this may not seem much until you become aware of the possibilities: Since each firing cue can even be programmed several times on each and several devices, completely new ways open up. For example, a full step sequence can be performed over several G-Flames, while various PFE Advanced 10 Outputs receivers trigger confetti shots and fire single shots. All this with a single firing channel.

The PFS Pocket can handle all radio channels (Europe or USA) and can be programmed to a specific radio channel. Furthermore, it can not only teach-in receivers, but can also be taught-in to a transmitter (different coding). This simplifies renting of other equipment as well as splitting system codes enormously.

Despite its size, the PFS Pocket offers enough safety features to avoid unwanted firings. On the one hand the separate firing mode must be activated, on the other hand the dead man function can be activated optionally. Firing cues are only fired if the dead man key is additionally pressed.

Highlights:

-  Amazingly small handheld transmitter
-  Direct selection of firing cues
-  Dozens of possibilities per cue
-  High level of safety thanks to the dead man function
-  Robust membrane keypad
