Please note:
After the Salamander Quad Pro has been fired, there can occasionally be seen
a small flickering flame within the flue. This is produced by residual fuel in the nozzle
vaporising after the Fire channel has been released. This is expected in normal operation,
however, if the effect is not desirable, it can be minimised by gently warming the fuel
canisters prior to use. This increases the volatility of the fuel, allowing it to vaporise more
rapidly.
Please note:
If fire order is received while not in ‘rdy’ state, the machine will become
disabled (HSI powered down, firing not possible) and display ‘dEr’ (DMX error). This is to
ensure accidental firing by plugging the machine into DMX with all values raised is not
possible – HSI delay has to be respected, fire order must be intentional and requires and
input after machine is ready.
Once fire order disappears the machine is re-enabled – HSI can be powered back on and
HSI delay can begin from the start.
The machine can cycle between HSI delay and ‘dEr’ indefinitely if the HSI delay continues
to be disrespected.

Set-Up
The Salamander Quad Pro is programmed for operation through the control panel (see above). This
must be carried out with all DMX cables unplugged.
When powered up,
doF

Setting DMX Channels:
Press the SELECT button. The HSI indicator LED will light up, and the currently selected HSI channel
will be displayed. Use the UP / DOWN buttons to cycle through DMX channels. When the desired
channel is selected, press STORE / VIEW to save the setting.
Press SELECT again, and the FLAME indicator LED will light up. This is the first Fire channel. Select the
desired channel and save it as above. Pressing SELECT again will return to the DMX status display.
For safety reasons the machine will ignore DMX entirely if the HSI channel is set up to also be a fire
channel.
