When use DMX console to test the sequence, suggest to set CH1 at 128, so that nozzle stay at straight up position after each sequence.
9. Pressure Relief| | Host controller: Press “pre-heat” key (light off). DMX console: switch DMX value of channel 6 to 0-49/201-255.
10.Switch safety lock to USER MODE| | Before switch to USER MODE, Please strictly follow the safety distance requirement, remove all human, animal or flammable objects in the danger area.
11. Pressuriser|

| Host controller: Press”pre-heat” button (light on). DMX console: switch DMX value of channel 6 to 50-200.
12. Firing|

| Set firing sequence

Host controller: Press “FIRING” key.

DMX console: switch DMX value of channel 3 to 254-255.

13. Pressure Relief|

| Relief pressure when show finished or CIRCLE FLAMER not use for a long period.

Host controller: Press “pre-heat” key (light off). DMX console: switch DMX value of channel 6 to 0-49/201-255.

Channel Explanation

  1. The first channel controls the firing angle. It defines to which angle the nozzle of CIRCLE FLAMER move to. The angle can be chosen anywhere between -105° to +105° (DMX value 0 to 255).
  2. The DMX value for angle of 0° is 127.5 (round up 128). Use this value, following formula can be used to calculate all other angles ∠ in degree. Please always note the prefix of the angle.
    DMX value=127.5+(∠*1.2145)

The fourth channel is the firing duration setup.
Below formula can be used to calculate the firing duration (ms):DMX Value = t/10

Channel 5 (CH5): Program Sequence setup

The fifth Channel allows to firing a preset sequence. Three DMX values can be used for one of the programmed firing sequence from above sequence list (refer to above sequence list table).
Below formula can be used to calculate firing sequence:DMX Value = 2 + Sequence No.*2.55

Channel 6 (CH6): Firing Pressure Setup

The sixth channel can set the working mode of pump.
When the safety lock located at TEST MODE, set DMX value between 50-200 to test the system. For safety, the pump will not working.
When the safety lock located at USER MODE, the pump can be activated by set DMX value between 50-200. The device can make ignitions in Pressure Armed state.

Example of DMX console control

  1. Set nozzle straight up
    (CH1 Angle = 128, CH2 Speed = 0, CH3 Ignition = 0, CH4 Firing duration = 0, CH5 Program sequence = 0, CH6 Compres sion mode = 50~200)

  2. Set preset Sequence No. 31
    (CH1 Angle = 128, CH2 Speed = 0, CH3 Ignition = 0, CH4 Firing duration = 0, CH5 Program sequence DMX value = 80, CH6 Compression mode = 50~200)

  3. Ignition
    ( CH1 Angle = 128,CH2 Speed = 0,CH3 Ignition = 255,CH4 Firing duration = 0,CH5 Program sequence DMX value = 80, CH6 Compression mode = 50~200)

NOTE: After firing, The DMX value of CH3 must fall below 254, before an ignition can be made again. CH1 defines the nozzle position after firing.

Example of Wave Firing by DMX console

  1. Set firing nozzle to the start point
    (CH1 Angle = 0, CH2 Speed = 255, CH3 Ignition = 0, CH6 Compression mode = 50~200)

  2. Set up firing speed
    (CH1 Angle = 0, CH2 Speed = 50, CH3 Ignition = 0, CH6 Compression mode = 50~200)

  3. Set firing end point and ignition
    (CH1 Angle = 255, CH2 Speed = 50, CH3 Ignition = 255, CH6 Compression mode = 50~200)

  4. Firing Nozzle will firing and make movement from start point to end point

NOTE: After firing, The DMX value of CH3 must fall below 254, before an ignition can be made again.

Example of firing with fixed duration by DMX console

  1. Set nozzle straight up
    (CH1 Angle = 128, CH2 Speed = 0, CH3 Ignition = 0, CH4 Firing duration = 0, CH6 Compression mode = 50~200)

  2. Set firing duration 1s
    (CH1 Angle = 128, CH2 Speed = 0, CH3 Ignition = 0, CH4 Firing duration = 100, CH6 Compression mode = 50~200)

  3. Firing 1s
    (CH1 Angle = 128, CH2 Speed = 0, CH3 Ignition = 255, CH4 Firing duration = 100, CH6 Compression mode = 50~200)

NOTE: After firing, The DMX value of CH3 must fall below 254, before an ignition can be made again.
