General Operating Instructions
Operating Instructions:
switch “ON” in the back of the SNOW STORM. If you are using the DMX features, read the section
on DMX settings to get the proper response. If you are using the remote, set the DMX display on the
back
of the SNOW STORM unit to any number between 900-999. Press the “ON” switch on the tethered
remote to start the snowfall. Adjust the dial on the remote to set the desired snowflake size (See
Chart 2). Rotate the dial clockwise to obtain larger flakes and counterclockwise for smaller flakes. If
the flakes are sticking to the ground during an initial run, adjust the dial counterclockwise, after
drying off the ground surface (snowflakes accumulate more easily on a wet surface). Press “OFF” to
turn off the snow on the tethered remote. Do not operate the SNOW STORM without the
clear tube submerged in the filled solution container.
4)
If the solution has drained out of the clear tube during a rest period for
the SNOW STORM, it may take a minute or two for the pump to self-
prime itself from the solution container liquid.
5)
On the tethered remote, a blinking light signifies that the Power is “ON”.
A constant light from the LED signifies that the SNOW STORM is
blowing evaporative snow. If the light on the remote is completely off,
the unit is not powered up and cannot be controlled from the remote.
6)
To turn the power OFF, push down on the red “O” button on the back of the unit.
DMX Settings SNOW STORM
The DMX settings are key to the operation of the SNOW STORM. The three-digit number on the back of the
SNOW STORM panel determines the operation mode for the SNOW STORM. Warning: there are DMX
settings where the SNOW STORM will appear not to operate, so always review the tables below during
setup and operation.
