SHUTDOWN OVER DMX:
By using this function, the machine can be switched off & on using a 3 rd DMX channel for
control. The function is suitable for remote-controlled on & off via DMX. The control
signal is detected on the 3
rd
channel = start a 2. For example: Start address =
100, shutdown is controlled with address 102.
•
Enable or disable shutdown over DMX. Enabled = machine uses 3 DMX channels,
Disabled = machine uses 2 DMX channels. Factory default is enabled (3 ch).
•
NOTE: If you don t intend to use shutdown over DMX, disable this function, for two
reasons; 1) to avoid unwanted switch-off by mistake because machine detects a DMX
signal intended for other equipment, and 2) to reduce the no. of DMX channels in use.
•
Automatic shutdown (switch off) process starts at DMX level 220 (87 %) 239 (93 %) only.
Below or above this level, the machine will operate as normal. If the DMX signal is lost
during the 1-minute switch-off purging cycle, the machine will continue the switch-off
cycle and go to standby mode when completed.
•
In standby mode, the machine continues detecting DMX signal and will start heating up
at DMX levels below 87 / above 93%.
•
If the DMX signal is lost during standby mode, the machine will remain in standby. Same
if the machine is on, it will remain on until a control DMX signal is detected.
•
In standby mode, the machine will continue detecting DMX signal, meaning if DMX is
detected, the shutdown / switch-on function is active.
FLUID SENSOR:
The machine uses a flow sensor to detect an empty fluid container. If no flow is
detected, a fluid empty message appears and fog production is stopped to protect the
fluid pump from running dry for a longer period.
The function of the flow sensor may be disturbed if there are air bubbles in the fluid
line. Air bubbles appear at container change when the connector is removed. Also, the
fluid bag contains a small volume of air, which normally will be sucked into the fluid
line when the bag is empty or almost empty.
For normal use, it is recommended to keep fluid sensor enabled. In some situations, it
might be suitable to disable the sensor, for example, if the machine is used at a low
output setting, it may take a very long time for the pump to prime & air bubbles are
gone. Also, if external containers are used, and/or if longer suction hoses are used, air
bubbles may interfere with the flow sensor.
To avoid unwanted & unnecessary interrupt, disable the sensor and maintain control of
the fluid container to avoid the machine from running dry for a long period.
Enable the sensor again if the machine is used under normal conditions, to avoid the
risk of fluid pump wear out.
•
Choose Enable or Disable , press OK to confirm. Press X to exit.
MUTE POWER LED:
If there are requirements of the invisible appearance of the machine, for example on a
dark stage, all LEDs and the display can be muted. Choose Mute Power LED to keep the
power LED Off.
•
Select Unmuted for normal operation.
