Safety Precautions

• Be sure to save the packing carton in the unlikely event the unit may have to be returned for service
• Do not spill water or other liquids into or on to your hazer. Be sure that all the haze fluid is kept inside the fluid reservoir
• Be sure that the local power outlet match that or the required voltage for your haze machine
• Do not remove the top cover under any conditions. There are no user serviceable parts inside
• Disconnect the unit’s main power when left unused for long peri- ods of time
• Never connect this unit to a dimmer pack
• Do not attempt to operate this unit, if it becomes damaged in anyway
• Never operate this unit when it’s cover is removed
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock or fire, do not expose this unit rain or moisture
• Do not attempt to operate this unit if the power cord has been frayed or broken. Do not attempt to remove or break off the ground prong from the electrical cord. This prong is used to reduce the risk of electrical shock and fire in case of an internal short
• Disconnect from main power before making any type of connection
• Never block the ventilation holes. Always be sure to mount this unit in an area that will allow proper ventilation. Allow about 6” (15cm) between this device and a wall
• This unit is intended for indoor use only, use of this product out- doors voids all warranties
• Always mount this unit in a safe and stable matter
• Please route your power cord out of the way of foot traffic. Power cords should be routed so they are not likely to be walked on, pinched by items placed upon or against them
• The unit should only be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
  A. The power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged.
  B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the unit.
  C. The unit has been exposed to rain or water.
  D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance.

DMX Information

Power Supply: Before plugging your unit in, be sure the source volt-age in your area matches the required voltage for your ADJ Entour Haze Pro. The ADJ Entour Haze Pro is available in a 120v and 230v version. Because line voltage may vary from venue to venue, you should be sure your unit voltage matches the wall outlet voltage before attempting to operate you fixture.
DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal protocol used as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminal).
DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of different manufactures to be linked together and operate from a single controller, as long as all fixtures and the controller are DMX compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. When a fixture is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.

Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX Operation):

The Entour Haze Pro can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The Entour Haze Pro has 3 DMX channel modes, 1 channel, 2 channel, and 4 channel. The DMX address is set on the back panel. Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR connector for data input and data output (Figure 1). We recommend Accu Cable DMX cables. If you are making your own cables, be sure to use standard 110-120 Ohm shielded cable (This cable may be purchased at almost all pro lighting stores). Your cables should be made with a male and female XLR connector on either end of the cable. Also remember that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot be split.

Notice: Be sure to follow figures two and three when making your own cables. Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not connect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.

Special Note: Line Termination. When longer runs of cable are used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic behavior. A terminator is a 110-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is connected between connector (DATA + and DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator (ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibilities of erratic behavior.

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors. Some manufactures use 5-pin DMX-512 data cables for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin DMX fixtures may be implemented in a 3-pin DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin data cables in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used, these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The chart below details a proper cable conversion.

The maintenance should be done by a qualified person.

1. Avoid heavy output.
2. Do not let the fluid get dirty.

4. Clean the directional fan blower regularly.
5. Prolonged use, sponge under the turntable of smoke outlet may accumulate oil, periodically cleaned out or replaced with a new sponge.
6. Never operate the unit upside down. Do not store the unit upside down.
7. Never mix oil based haze fluid and water based fog fluid.

Trouble Shooting

Power Connected but no haze is emittied:

1. Check the power supply. Plug the unit into grounded power supply socket with proper voltage.
2. Disconnect haze machine from power supply. Replace fuse with one of the same type.
3. Make sure there is sufficient fluid in the tank
4. Make sure the atomization head is not blocked or damaged.
5. Make sure your controller is connected correctly.
6. Check your DMX address setting.

Fuse Replacement

Unplug the unit from any power source it may be connected to. Once the power has be disconnected, use a flat head screw driver to unscrew the fuse holder located above the power switch. Remove the bad fuse and replace with a new one, and screw the fuse holder back in.
