4. STARTING OPERATION
1.
DMX protocol
Install the device on a plane surface. The fluid tank of the device needs to be filled
with standard fogger fluid before starting up operation and always disconnected from
the mains as fluid could be spilled. We recommend high-quality Glow fogger fluids.
You must not use substances that are classified as “dangerous working material” or
“inflammable fluids”. If fluid should get into the interior of the device, disconnect
from mains immediately and consult a technician.
Switch the device on via the power switch.
DMX-512 connection/ connection between fixtures.
The wires must not come into contact with each other, otherwise.
Occupation of the XLR-connection:
If you are using controllers with this occupation, you can connect the DMX-output of
the controller directly with the DMX-input of the first fixture in the DMX-chain. If
you wish to connect DMX-controllers with other XLR-outputs, you need to use
adapter-cables.
Building a serial DMX-chain:
Connect the DMX-output of the first fixture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of
the next fixture. Always connect one output with the input of the next fixture until all
fixtures are connected.
Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator.
Solder a 120 resistor between Signal (-) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and
plug it in the DMX-output of the last fixture.
Connection with the mains.
Connect the device to the mains with the enclosed power supply cable.
Addressing
After you connect the fogger to the mains, the dip switch on the rear allows you to
assign the DMX fixture address, which the item will respond to the controller. If you
set, for example, the address to channel 7, the item will use the channel 7 for control.
Please, be sure that you don’t have any overlapping channels in order to control each
item correctly and independently from any other fixture on the DMX data link. If two,
three or more item are addressed similarly, they will work similarly. Press the dip 1 to
ON position, other OFF and the fogger is at DMX mode.
2.
Wireless remote control
Connect the remote control box/receiver to the three-pin socket on the rear of the
fogger and then you can use the wireless launcher to on/off emit the fog.
3.
ON/ OFF control
Connect the remote control box to the three-pin socket on the rear of the fogger and
then you can press the button on the box to on/ off emit the fog. After a certain warm-
up time, the devices is ready to operate. Upon warming up, the stand-by lamp, red
LED, of the remote control lights up. When the green LED lights up, the fogger is
ready to emit and by switching the control box the fogger starts emission. The
temperature is regulated by a high quality thermostat.
Caution: The escape nozzle will heat up during operation. Therefore do not touch the nozzle
until it has cooled down completely.
