16. M-DMX INPUT:
Please note that this USB-connector is NOT used for
firmware updates or to connect the unit to a PC! Instead this USB-connector makes it very easy to add
wireless DMX to the unit! Just add the (optional) WTR-DMX DONGLE from BRITEQ
®
and you will get
wireless DMX! Moreover you will be able to connect other DMX-controlled equipment to the DMX-output
so you can share the wireless DMX function with all connected units! No extra settings to be made in the
setup menu, just follow the procedure in the user
manual supplied with the WTR-DMX DONGLE
from
BRITEQ
®
.
The
separate WTR-DMX
DONGLE is available from WWW.BRITEQ-
LIGHTING.COM (order code: 4645)
17.
AIR INTAKE:
do not cover these air intakes. Make
sure they cannot soak up dirty or polluted air.
18.
HOSE WITH FAST COUPLER:
the fogger comes
with an extendable PVC hose to evacuate the
produced low fog. The hose is fixed to the fogger
with
a very easy “twist and click” bayonet coupler.
Simply stretch the hose out and place it on the
floor so that the low fog can flow over the stage.
19.
METAL NOZZLE:
ensures a better distribution of
the low fog.
