Rest Period
Continuous operation of this machine can be accomplished when volume is set at the
3 o’clock position. If dial is set for full output or blast, the fogger may cool enough to
require a 3 minute rest period for reheating before continuing to fog.
5.7
Shut down
When finished with the machine, clean the tube and pump by operating the unit while
running a pint of 5% vinegar/distilled water mix through the pump and then rinse with a
pint of distilled water. When finished, water should remain in the line for storage. Do
not drain or empty the tube of water.
5.8
Troubleshooting
If the pump does not draw fluid
into the fogging unit, be sure the unit is warm and
ready to operate. Then check to see that the tubing is in the fluid, not above the fluid.
Check electrical power to the machine. Check to hear any sound coming from the
pump side (nearest the top). A slight vibrating sound should be heard if the pump is
pumping fluid. Allow fluid to flow through the line to get the pump primed.
Note: do
not run the pump without fluid passing through the tube. This can cause
damage to the pump and is not covered under warranty.
5.9 Notes on DMX operation
Each DMX’d unit will occupy a unique DMX address on the DMX chain. By adjusting
the dip switches on the side of the machine near the DMX cable plug-ins, the user may
assign one address to the machine, giving you on/off and volume control with one
DMX channel (there is no timer on this DMX).
Step 1). Attach the DMX cable (5-pin XLR) to the upper “in” female connector located
on the back of the fogger.
Step 2). The DMX address is configured by adding the dip switch numbers together to
total the number required. For example, DipSwitch 1 + 6 = 33. Your DMX channel
would be 33.

When you move the slide control or digital control;

= Maximum Blast Output
“Input” and “Output” designations on the DMX plugs are arbitrary (i.e., you can use
the input plug for output and vice-versa). It is not necessary to attempt converting your
DMX line’s connector to female/male to match the appropriate socket on the plug. As
long as it is looped in/out, it will work.
