OPERATING  INSTRUCTIONS

The Silent Storm snow machine re-
quires 120 volts ac at 10 amps. The
unit can be operated from a wired hand
held remote or from a DMX control
signal. When DMX data is present the
hand held remote is ignored. A valid
DMX signal causes a LED to light on
the rear of the machine.

The blower starts before the pump, to
allow it to come up to speed.  When
shut off, the blower runs for several seconds to purge the system.  The
pump rate is dependent on the blower settings.  Low blower settings
restrict pump range.

The remote has an On/Off switch with power
LED and two flow control knobs. It plugs into
the rear of the machine. The remote may be
extended with a 100’ cable. The first knob has
a cloud illustration and controls the air speed.
Fluid output is controlled by the second knob,
which is denoted with a snowflake. As the air
speed is reduced the maximum fluid rate is
also reduced to prevent excess foam from
forming on the nozzle. A range of flake size,
noise levels and distances can be achieved by
adjusting the two controls.

If the DMX control is used the remote does not
need to be installed. DMX control data can also

vary the blower and fluid flow. Set the base DMX address on the rear of
the machine. The base DMX address controls the air speed but the The
base a1 controls the fluid output rate. Don’t set the base DMX
address above 511.
