The Electronic Initiation Device, riser attachment model 1R, is a capacitive discharge device compatible for use with ‘electric rope cutters’ (e.g. AAD cutters) or other hot-bridgewire devices. Paired with the EID Mission Control Software, the EID1R unit can be programmed for planned initiation based upon selectable parameters, which include time elapses, pressures, and accelerations. The EID1R is lanyard activated or can be customized for fall detection. Key initiation parameters are stored to internal memory in real-time and can be downloaded for review after initiation.
