Some experimenting is necessary to achieve each desired effect.  A few points to keep in mind
are the air pressure will determine the velocity of the effect, while the flow control of the fog
machine will determine the density of the effect.

When using the air option as a fog purge, enough time must be allowed for the air to com-
pletely purge the heat exchanger of fog and fog fluid. Remember on the next fog cue enough
time must be allowed for the fog fluid to fill the heat exchanger and exit out the nozzle.

1.) Place the G300 directly against the foam ring input of the LSG.  Proper alignment can be
observed by shining a flashlight into the 12" exit of the LSG and noting the G300 output
nozzle is centered in the LSG input.

2.) Connect the blue Twist lock connector into Custom port on the rear panel of the G300.
(Available on G300’s with LSG option.)

3.) Power up the G300 by turning on the Mains switch.  Note that the G300 is in Fog mode,
which is indicated by a flashing 'G ' on the remote display.

4.) Adjust remote interval control fully clockwise, until 'DEL' appears on the display.

5.) Adjust remote duration control until desired delay is achieved.  This delay allows the liquid
CO2 to purge the supply hose of CO2 gases ensuring only liquid is available for optimum
cooling.  The recommended formula for calculating delay time is 1 sec. for every three feet of
supply hose.

6.) Adjust the remote flow rate to desired fog output level. It is recommended to start at '16'
and adjust accordingly. The maximum recommended flow is :LSG High Flow rate is twenty.
LSG Low Flow rate is twenty-five .
