Smoke Boost
Wait until the machine is ready, push the “SMOKE” button and hold it down. When the machine is hot
enough, a large quantity of smoke will be produced for 20 seconds (140% density). After that, the
machine will switch back to normal density (100%)
If the heater isn’t warm enough, it will immediately switch to 100% density and skip the boost mode.
As long as
smoke is produced, the “MODE” display will show “BOOST”
Continuous
Wait until the machine is ready; shortly press the “CONT” button. The “MODE” display will show
the text “CONTINUOUS” and the generator will continuously produce smoke, until someone
pushe
s the “STOP” button or until the Smoke Liquid tank is empty. Density can be adjusted with
the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons, between 5 and 100%.
Automatic program
The generator is foreseen of an automated program to fill and maintain an area full with smoke.
Just set the size of the area (small/middle/large) and press RUN to start the program.
Press STOP to stop the program.
During the automat
ic program, the smoke production can be adjusted; as long as the “SMOKE”
button is pressed in the machine will temporally switch to Smoke Boost. The machine will switch back
to the automatic program once the button is released.
If the automatic program is stopped in the middle, the generator will keep the program in memory for
5 minutes. This means that if you push the RUN button in the next 5 minutes, the generator will
resume the original program. If the limit of 5 minutes is surpassed, the program will start from the
beginning.
See chapter 4.1 for setting automatic programs up.
Manual Timer program
The manual timer program can be used for a single use or repeatable program. Set the smoke time,
the pause time and repeat function. Press the “RUN” button to start the program. During the program,
the smoke density can be adjusted with the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons.
During the manual program, the smoke production can be manually adjusted. As long as the
SMOKE button is pressed down, the generator will switch over to Smoke Boost mode. The generator
switches back to the timer program as soon as the SMOKE button is relea sed.
See chapter 4.2 for setting manual timer programs up.
Delayed start of a program
The automatic and manual program can be delayed by a maximum of 24 hours. Set the desired
delay and press the “RUN” button.
The generator will start counting down as so
on as the “RUN” button is pressed and run once
the counter hits 0:00.
When the delay is longer than 15 minutes, the heater will shut down to sav e energy. The
machine starts automatically heating up 15 minutes prior to the end of the countdown.
See chapter 4.1 and 4.2 for setting up programs.
DMX interface
The generator can be used with DMX equipment. Set the desired DMX channel and attach the DMX
cable to the rear panel.
Then the machine is operated via a DMX device such as a light box. To
avoid interference when using a wired remote control, the DMX can be disabled: DMX channel: OFF.
See chapter 4.4 for setting up DMX channels.
