Stand Alone Operation
(Without the remote and a DMX
Controller)
:
Plug power cord into a grounded electrical outlet. To operate without
remote control, simply turn hazer on. Haze emission will begin automat-
ically.
Remote Operation:
Place your haze machine in a well ventilated area. Be sure your hazer
is placed on a flat, level surface. Be sure your hazer remote has been
plugged in securely. If you are using your hazer in DMX mode, be sure
your hazer is connected to a DMX line and the dip switches on the
rear of the unit have been properly set. Always maintain an adequate
supply of Elation Haze Juice™ in the fluid reservoir. Running the haze
machine dry will cause pump failure and or clogging. Running a haze
machine dry is the largest cause of haze machine failure. Only Elation
Haze Juice™ is recommended and not all haze juice is created equal.
Plug your haze machine into a standard 110V/120V supply. Once the
machine is plugged in and turned on, the power switch and a red
L.E.D. on the remote will begin to glow indicating the unit is receiving
power. The unit has a warm up time of ten (10) minutes.
DMX Operation:
The Haze-400 has on board DMX control. Currently, it uses 1 channel
to control output operation. The DMX channel is set on the back panel
of the Haze-400 by setting the dip switches to the desired channel.
If Channel A has a value from 0 to 5, the unit is OFF. Between the
values 6 to 249 the Haze-400 produces haze.

Haze 400™ Operating Instructions
Haze 400™ Set Up
Linking:
The Haze 400™ is a DMX intelligent hazer and must follow standard
DMX protocol when used in DMX mode. A DMX signal cannot be split
unless you are using an approved DMX splitter such as the American
DJ
®
DMX Branch 4.
™
Link your hazers together using standard DMX
cable as described on page 4 of this manual. Be sure that each fixture
follows an “IN”/”OUT” pattern starting from your DMX controller. Your
controller will always be the first output in a DMX chain. Link all your
DMX devices together regardless of their brand or type. To control all
the hazers at once, set all the hazers to the same DMX address.
Haze 400™ Haze Fluid
Hazer Liquid:
Only use Elation
®
brand haze juice. Elation
®
juice is specially formu-
lated to be used in this machine, other brand fluids may be made out
of chemicals that may clog your haze machine. Using haze juice other
than Elation
®
brand will void your manufactures warranty. Do not allow
the hazer liquid to become contaminated. Always replace the caps on
the hazer liquid container and the hazer’s liquid tank immediately after
filling.
Important:
Never mix oil-based and water-based hazer liquids. Before
switching the kind of hazer liquid in use, completely drain the hazer’s
tank to avoid mixing. Do not reuse any unused protions of haze juice.
