The control panel provides a means
to enable the various functions that
control the Fog and Ice operation.
The latching switches are used to set
the operating mode of the machine
and are used individually or in
combination. The layout of the control
panel is shown in the following
drawing.

The standby switch brings the
machine into operating mode and will
start the heater. This switch must be
ON to use the Fog switch or the Timer. When Standby is OFF, the
machine will display OFF on both displays. When standby is set to ON,
and the machine is ready, Rdy will show on the Fog display. This will
happen after approximately 8 minutes.
F o g
Gives Fog output at the level currently set using the display system. The
machine must be ready before fog can be produced.

Setting this switch to ON, will start the refrigeration system. To reach
pressure equalization there will always be a delay of up to 20 seconds
before the compressor starts. The temperature in the cooling system will
be shown on the right display. For best result let the machine cool for at
least 30 minutes before firing. The machine will reach its minimum
temperature of minus 42'C in approximately 45 minutes. This temperature
will allow for the longest possible runtime at full output, and the fog staying
low to the ground for the longest possible time. This function is
independent of the status of the STANDBY switch.
