▲ WARNING

• Unauthorized repair are prohibited, it may cause serious incident.
• Make sure power supply inconsistent with the rated voltage of the equipment, and the socket must well grounded. Unplug and turn off the machine when not use.
• Before connect the power cable, communication DMX cable should well connected and ensure the command keep at firing OFF status. And safety lock stay at test mode.
• The device can only be placed horizontally. Safety distances are marked on the device (at least 15m in all projection directions, at least 5m to the other sides of the device).
• After turning on the device, no person allows to stay in the danger area. Ensure all persons that are part of the show be informed about the safety distance, risks and functions of the device.
• Always have a CO2 fire extinguisher and an extinguishing blanket in case of needed.
• If there be any doubt as to the safety operation of the device in any circumstances, the device should be taken out of service immediately. Be sure the device is in good operating condition before use. If fail to fire correctly, immediately shut down and check it accordingly

DMX Control

(1)Full Cycle Mode: (0-255) angle change from A1(0°) to E(1080°), (128) is straight upward M2(540°)
(2)Half Cycle Mode: (0-255) angle change from -105° to 105°, (128) is straight upward (0°)
CH2| Manual Speed setup: (0) Max Speed, (1-254) Speed increase, (255) Max Speed
CH3| Ignition ON/OFF: (0-253) Ignition OFF, (254-255) Ignition ON
CH4| Firing Duration setup: 0 and 255 is permanent fire (10s is limit duration time); 1-254 is 10-2540ms duration time (Manual firing duration = DMX Value 10ms)
CH5| Program sequence setup: (0-2) no preset sequence; (3-255) preset sequence. DMX value = 2 + Sequence No.2.55 (ROUND OFF)
Detail information(CH5 DMX Reference Value) you can see the sequences list above.
CH6| Firing Pressure setup: (0-49) Pressure Relief Mode (Emergency Stop), (50-200) Pressure Armed Mode, (201-255) Pressure Relief Mode (Emergency Stop)

Channel 1 (CH1)-Full Cycle Mode : Angle Setup

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 between0° to 1080° (DMX value 0 to 255).
2. The DMX value for angle of 0° is 3.5 (round up 4). the following formula can be used to calculate all other angles ∠ in degree.
*DMX Value = ∠ 0.2361**

> Channel 1 (CH1)-Half Cycle Mode : Angle Setup

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)**

Channel 2 (CH2): Speed Setup

CH2: Speed Setup

DMX value| 0| 1-254| 255

State| Pressure Relief| Pressure Armed| Pressure Relief

• Example 1: DMX console control (Half Cycle Mode)

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 2: Firing with DMX control (wave firing, Half Cycle Mode)

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 3: Firing with DMX control (fixed firing duration, Half Cycle Mode)

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.

▲Maintenance

1. To maintain the system in good performance and running status, it is recommended to running the device at least once per month.

2. Maintenance of the nozzle: Nozzle need to be cleaned up , and it is recommended that once every six months (depending on the environment and frequency of use). In the process of using the equipment, if the flame shape is seriously deformed or the fuel injection line is significantly deformed or coarsened, the nozzle should be removed immediately for cleaning.
   

3. Maintenance of the O-ring: If it is found that the O-ring of the nozzle is damaged or ageing when cleaning the nozzle, the O-ring should be replaced in time (material and size of O- ring: fluoro rubber O-ring, the outermost diameter is 14 mm, and the line diameter is 2 mm).
   

4. In order to lubricate the pipeline and pump it is highly recommended to add 10-20ml castor oil per 10L canister.
