Step 2). The DMX address is configured by adding the dip switch numbers together to
total the number required. For example: Dip switch 1 + 6 = 33. Your DMX channel would
be 33. (Dip switches are set by moving the switch to the right toward the “on” arrow.)

When you move the slide control or digital control;
0 – 15%
= Standby (volume output off)
40 – 100%
= Volume Control
The blower starts above 15% and snow starts above 40%. Adjustment of the snow is
from 40% to 80% for best results. At a value of 100%, the machine will operate at
maximum output and will produce its largest size flakes. Adjust slowly and visually set
each machine.
“Input” and “Output” designations on the DMX plugs are arbitrary (i.e., you can use the
input plug for output and vice-versa). It is not necessary to attempt converting your DMX
line’s connector to female/male to match the appropriate socket on the plug.

Shut down
When finished with the machine, clean with water, always leaving water in the tube and
pump. This will clean the sock and pump.

Troubleshooting
If the pump does not draw fluid
into the unit, be sure the tubing is in the fluid and not
kinked. Check electrical power to the machine.
Note: do not run the pump without
fluid passing through the tube. This will cause the pump to become hot and could
damage the pump. This is not covered under warranty.
