Spark Fabrica Granule is the consumable specially designed far spark machine,
to simulate cold fountain fireworks effect for stage.
Tear the vacuum package of granule, and fill in the Spark Fabrica Granule through the granule filling port on the top of the machine.
Fill the consumable into the feed port, NOT into the output nozzle.
Close the lid securely after filling.
The capacity of storage bin is 150g.
| Make sure to fill the Spark Fabrica Granule through the feed port on the top
of the fixture when power supply is off .
---|---
| Wear eye protection to avoid eye injury while filling granules and testing
spark machine(s).
CONNECT THE MACHINE
Connect power and DMX signal line.
Connect the first machine’s power plug.
Connect the other machines in series with the power cable.
Connect the other machines in series with DMX connection line.
Connect PYRO SIM CONTROLLER or DMX512 controller.
| Do not use damaged power plug and power cable. One power plug is recommended
to connect 4 units in series at most for this product.
---|---
| Please attach the configured 120 ohm terminal resistor to the outlet of the
last machine for enhance the anti-interference of the machine.
| Please calculate all products’ total current required according to the power
supply and fuse parameters of the products.
| The standard length of the power connection line and the signal connection
line is 3 meters, and a longer length can be reached by connecting in series.

Check the machine status icon(refer to icon introductions of 3.3)**
| When the icon shows yellow, is indicates that the machine is abnormal.
Please use it after asking the professional to check and repair the machine.
---|---
The sparking temperature of the machine is the factory default temperature. The product will heat up automatically when disconnected with DMX signal.Automatic heating function can be set to on or off, and the concrete operation please refer to “3.2 MENU SETTING”.
When spark machines connect DMX signal, the heating function can be started only on the Sim Pyro Console.
SET CHANNEL MODE
| This machine has 2 channel mode and 3 channel mode, the specific setting
please refer to “3.2 MENU SETTING”.
---|---
SET DMX ADDRESS
Please set DMX address according to channel mode:
In the 2 channel mode, please set spark machines’ DMX address to 1.3.5.7 …. ..
In the 3 channel mode, please set spark machines’ DMX address to 1.4.7.10 ….. .
| Please do not set address code repeatedly.
---|---
START TO SPARK
The machine can be controlled by Pyro Sim Controller console or DMX512 console.
TURN ON THE CONSOLE’ POWER
TURN ON HEATING FUNCTION
| The heating function of the second channel DMX value is 240-255, and if
fakes about 5 minutes to preheat after turning on.
---|---
| When healing is turned on, the indicator light on the machine will turn to
red, and the indicator light flashes green fa indicate that the machine is
healing.
| Heating will complete after the indicator light turns green for a long time,
and the spark machine will enter sparking status.
| When using the Pyro Sim Controller controller, the screen will display the
real-time temperature of each machine. When the temperature value of the
control board turns green, it means that the heating is completed and the
machine enters the status of sparking.
ADJUST SPARKING HEIGHT
Adjust sparking height through the first channel, and the height adjustment values is DMX parameter values 11-255.
| Do Not touch the sparks or put finger in the output nozzle.
---|---
| During heating up and operation, do not touch the housing.

or flammable material. And make sure no falling residue fly to flammable
material.
| The maximum height of indoor and outdoor granule is different. The maximum
height of indoor granule is 3.5 meters, while outdoor granule is 5 meters.
| If spark machines are affected by wind, sparking height will be reduced,
sparking direction will also be affected by the wind and inclined.
---|---
| The proper firefighting extinguishers are recommended as follows: Any type
of sand or substance that can suffocate the active metals. Class “D” Fire
Extinguishers for Metal Substance Fires.
