5.9 Notes on DMX operation
Each DMXed 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 to the upper “in” female connector located on the back of
the hazer.
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.

= Off
5– 80%
= Volume Control
80 – 100%
= Maximum Blast Output
“Input” and “Output” designations on the DMX plugs are arbitrary (i.e., you can use the
input plug for output and visa-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.
Once your hazer is warm and the green ready lite is on, you may control the haze output
from the control booth.

Service and Maintenance
Care of your HazeMax
TM
will give you years of service. Note: cleaning
your unit is going to pay off in constant good performance.
1.
Dry all areas on the exterior of the machine once it is cool. Clean with a soft cloth to
remove any flog fluid from inside the fluid compartment or outside area.
2.
Do not store with haze fluid inside. 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. This will keep the piston in the
pump from becoming stuck and not working. When finished, water should remain in the
line for storage. Do not drain or empty the tube of water unless a freezing condition
exists. Do not run the pump without fluid passing through the tube. This will cause the
pump to become hot and could damage the piston. This is not covered under warranty.
3.
Do not transport or ship with haze fluid inside the machine.
