Table 2 – 5 Minute Cycle

 

 
 

 

Table 2 

displays the settings 

for the 5 minute cycle. 

Within  this  mode,  the  device 

cycles are dependent on 

the B switch setting.  The 

cycle time is the total time 

of the event, and the “on 

time” is the length of time of 

snow output, similar to the 

duration in the “DMX mode”. 

Otherwise, the machine is in 

a WAIT state

Table 4 

shows the use of 

switch C during 5 minute 

or 15 minute cycle modes 

(Switch A is 6 or 7).  Switch C 

controls the flake size.
