PERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The MDG eMINI fogger can be controlled either locally, with the keyboard, via DMX ( see DMX control and
RDM Control ). This paragraph focuses on
local control
.
Starting Procedures
Powered up the fogger, the control program configures the Input/Output and loads the configuration
parameters, saved in the EEPROM memory.
At this point, the MDG
eMINI
switches to stand-by mode, and most of the electronic controls are off.
When the fogger is manually switched to «UNIT ON» mode («UNIT

ON»), the program starts the heating
cycle («STATE = % HEAT»), which will last approximately 7 minutes.
When the temperature reaches its operating level, the eMINI Fogger is ready to produce fog («STATE =
READY»).
NOTES:
Always check that the fog fluid hose and pumps are primed prior using the MDG eMINI fogger.
This is particular critical after you have refilled the fog fluid bottle, or if you have not used the fogger during
a long period.
To prime the eMINI fogger, do a fog burst of approximately 10 sec.
Fog Production
•
Normal Mode
The amount of the fog emission can be controlled by adjusting the fog output («CONTROL

OUTPUT»),
while the emission is controlled with the Fog menu set to ON («CONTROL

FOG

ON»).
•
Burst Mode
When the fog menu is toggle to ON , the MDG eMINI fogger will produce fog at very high output
during a period corresponding to the
burst
duration («CONTROL

BURST DUR»), in 1/10
th
of seconds
When the burst of fog is finished, the user will need to reset the fog menu to OFF
(«CONTROL

FOG

OFF») to be able to restart a new burst.
During a fog burst, switching
fog
menu to
OFF
will abort the running fog burst.
The MDG eMINI fogger will produce fog as long as the control parameters are within specifications, and
the fog fluid bottle filled.
