Burn Wire
A burn wire is a corrodible stainless steel wire that can be used to release the AMX from a platform or
release suction from suction cups. The recommended wire is from McMaster-Carr (302/304 stainless steel
wire 0.01” diameter).

The timing of the burn wire start is controlled by the
BM
command in the setup.txt file.
1.
Run wire through one of the holes in the mounting plate, and start screw in side. Wrap
excess wire around screw.
2.
Attach mount plate to tag and wrap wire around center post. Screw down acorn nut to hold
wire in place.
3.
Run wire through opposite side of plate and insert screw to tighten down. Wrap around
screw a few turns. The burn wire should be taut to help it break when it starts to corrode.
Cut off excess wire.
