Thank you for having chosen the club smoke DMX series. You will see you acquired a powerful and versatile device. Unpack your item. Before you initial start-up, please make sure that there is no damage caused by transportation. Should there be any, consult your dealer and do not use the device.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
If the device has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after
transportation), do not switch it on immediately. The arising condensation
water might damage your device. Leave the device switched off until it has
reached room temperature. Always plug in the power plug least.
Make sure that the power-switch is set to OFF position before you connect the
device to the mains.
Never let the power-cord come into contact with other cables! Handle the power
cord and all connections with the mains with particular caution! Make sure
that the available voltage is not higher than stated on the rear panel. Make
sure that the power-cord is never crimped or damaged by sharp edges. Check the
device and the power-cord from time to time. CAUTION! Before filling the
machine disconnect from mains. Never drink fluid or use it on the inside or
outside of a human body. If fluid gets in contact with skin or eyes, rinse
thoroughly with water. If it is necessary call a doctor immediately! DANGER OF
EXPLOSION! Never add flammable liquids of any kind to the fog liquid. Keep
device upright. Never aim the output nozzle directly at people or at open
flames.
DANGER OF BURNING! Keep minimum distance of 50 cm to nozzle! Always disconnect
from the mains, when the device is not in use or before cleaning it. Only
handle the power-cord by the plug.
Never pull out the plug by tugging the power-cord. Keep away children and
amateurs!
Never leave this device running unattended.
FEATURES
Ideal for party-rooms or small discotheques, Powerful output, With remote control, Quality thermostat, Overheat protective switch, Constant and steady output fog; DMX 512 protocol controlling the fog output。
STARTING OPERATION
-
DMX protocol
Install the device on a plane surface. The fluid tank of the device needs to be filled with standard fogger fluid before starting up operation and always disconnected from the mains as fluid could be spilled. We recommend high- quality Glow fogger fluids. You must not use substances that are classified as “dangerous working material” or “inflammable fluids”. If the fluid should get into the interior of the device, disconnect from the mains immediately and consult a technician.
Switch the device on via the power switch.
DMX-512 connection / connection between fixtures
The wires must not come into contact with each other, otherwise
Occupation of the XLR connection:
If you are using controllers with this occupation, you can connect the DMX output of the controller directly with the DMX input of the first fixture in the DMX chain. If you wish to connect DMX controllers with other XLR outputs, you need to use adapter cables.
Building a serial DMX chain:
Connect the DMX output of the first fixture in the DMX chain with the DMX input of the next fixture.
Always connect one output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.
Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 resistor between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX output of the last fixture.
Connection with the mains
Connect the device to the mains with the enclosed power supply cable.
Addressing
After you connect the fogger to the mains, the LED display on the rear allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which is defined as the first channel from which the item will respond to the controller. If you set, for example, the address to channel 7, the item will use channel 7 for control. Please, be sure that you don’t have any overlapping channels in order to control each item correctly and independently from any other fixture on the DMX data link. If two, three, or more items are addressed similarly, they will work similarly. Press the button menu till A001 appears in the LED display, then set the desired address by the buttons UP or Down:

CAUTION: The escape nozzle will heat up during operation. Therefore do
not touch the nozzle until it has cooled down completely.
Cleaning the heating element
The heating element should regularly be cleaned every 30 operational hours in
order to avoid clogging. Use haze machine cleaner available at your dealer.
Procedure:
Fill cleaner into the empty tank. Run the machine several times in a well-
ventilated room only. The number of repetitions depends on the pollution level
of the vaporizing elements. After use clean all remaining cleaner and rinse
the tank thoroughly. There are no serviceable parts inside the device except
for the fuse. Maintenance and service operations are only to be carried out by
authorized dealers.
Replacing the fuse
If the fine-wire fuse of the device fuses, only replace the fuse with a fuse
of the same type and rating.
Before replacing the fuse, unplug the mains lead.
Procedure:
Step 1: Open the fuse holder on the rear panel with a fitting screwdriver.
Step 2: Remove the old fuse from the fuse holder.
Step 3: Install the new fuse in the fuse holder.
Step 4: Replace the fuse holder in the housing.
Should you need any spare parts, please use genuine parts.
