IQ Slats

Smart cue rails that improve field confidence and visibility — for fireworks professionals, prosumers, enthusiasts, and special effects crews.

Why it matters

• Smart at the rack: IQ Slats sit where the work actually happens – at the racks and positions where you plug in product.
• Block-based layout: Each slat is organized into cue blocks, with up to 10 connection points per cue so you can hang multiple effects cleanly off a single trigger.
• Per-connection continuity: Continuity is resolved per connection, not just per cue, so when several fireworks share a line you can see exactly which connection is open or faulted.
• Hardware shunt mode: Built-in shunt behavior lets crews connect igniters and keep outputs shorted while racks are being built and moved, even before slats are wired into a Connect module.
• Built for the blast zone: Slats live near heat, debris, and handling. They’re engineered to be robust but economically semi-sacrificial if one takes a hit in the field.

Each IQ Slat block supports up to 10 igniter connections per output. Connect doesn’t just tell you “cue 1 is good”—it can tell you which of those individual connections passed or failed continuity, so you can fix problems before you ever arm the system.

Continuity is measured per connection at the IQ Slat and displayed on the Connect module, so crews see exactly which igniter needs attention.

Per-connection continuity is sensed at the IQ Slat and displayed on the Connect module, so the crew sees exactly what’s happening at the rack.
