ATTENTION
The screened parts of the cable (sleeve) must never be connected to the system’s earth, as this would
cause faulty fixture and controller operation.
Over long runs can be necessary to insert a DMX level matching amplifier.
For those connections the use of balanced microphone cable is not recommended because it cannot
transmit control DMX data reliably.
•
Connect the controller DMX input to the DMX output of the first unit.
•
Connect the DMX output to the DMX input of the following unit. Connect again the output to the input
of the following unit until all the units are connected in chain.
•
When the signal cable has to run longer distance is recommended to insert a DMX termination on the
last unit.
2.8 CONSTRUCTION OF THE DMX TERMINATION
The termination avoids the risk of DMX 512 signals being reflected back along the cable when they reach-
es the end of the line: under certain conditions and with certain cable lengths, this could cause them to
cancel the original signals.
The termination is prepared by soldering a 120Ω 1/4 W resistor between pins 2 and 3 of the 5-pin male XLR
connector, as shown in figure.
Example:
3 pin XLR connector

2.9 MANUAL FUNCTION
For immediate fog output at the maximum volume of fog, when the LCD screen displays “READY TO FAZ-
ER”, keep the button MANUAL pressed. The display indicates “MANUAL 100%”. As soon as you release the
button, the fog output will stop.
NOTE - The manual operation will take priority over the continuous operation and the timer operation.
ATTENTION - In the manual mode the machine will always emit the maximum volume of fog. The amount
of the volume of emission is ~120%.
2.10 FAN SPEED FUNCTION
When the LCD panel display “READY TO FAZER”, press the FUNCTION button and select LOW>HI
function.
Under this mode, user can use either the UP/DOWN button to adjust the speed of fan.
