Seng up the unit

To make sure that you use this machine as intended, BoomToneDJ recommends to follow the steps described below.

Liquid Before turning on the machine, make sure there is enough fog liquid in the tank. This machine accepts most fog liquids and various densities for light or heavy fog. We recommends to use our fog liquid or ecient/economical and creates almost odorless fog. approximately 34 of its capacity. Overling the tank may cause the liquid to spill during transport, because of shocks, impact and ing of the machine. Fluid consumpon depends on the type of uid, the amount of fog that you wish to create and the mespan of use.

Wired mer remote

Connect this controller with the 5-pin DIN connector on the rear of the machine.

1. Interval selecon: Determines the mespan when the machine is acvated.

2. Duraon selecon: Determines the duraon if the mer acvates the machine. 3.

Output intensity: Output 0-100% (variable)

1. Timer functionality on/o

2. Connuous fog: Connuous operon with the selected output intensity

3. Manual fog: Fog projector at the selected output intensity, when pressed

Yellow LED: Timer funcon on/o

Red LED: Connuous fog funcon on/o

Green LED: Fog machine ready-indicator

DMX control

Connect the fog machine to your DMX-controller, using standard XLR male to XLR female cables. Select the correct DMX starng address by using the dipswitch panel just above the XLR-connectors. A status LED is provided, indicang that the machine receives DMX-signal from your controller.

Clogged system

It is possible that the fog output of your machine decreases over me. This may be caused by congeson in the uid pump system. To solve this, you have to follow the steps described below rst. Do not use special fog machine cleaning soluons rst, as these are the last expedients to save your fog machine. - If there is any fog liquid le in your tank, remove it from the tank. - Fill the uid tank with demineralized/dislled water.

WARNING: Never use tap or normal boled water as this contains chalk. This may clog your system, causing permanent damage.

• Fill the tank with approximately 1 liter demineralized/dislled water.
• Turn on the machine and let the heang process take place
• When your fog machine is ready, let the machine work at 100% output, connuously. This can be done through DMX or with the mer remote control.
• You will notice that the rst couple of output-bursts the machine mainly produces fog. This is caused due to the fog liquid that is sill inside the pipes of the heang system.

Aer several minutes you will noce that the fog output smoothly transforms into a light steam soluon. This means that the demineralized or distilled water has been pumped around the machine.

• Let the machine perform at full output for approximately 20 minutes, to make sure any internal dirt is removed when possible.
• Turn o the machine and let it cool down. Remove the demineralized/dislled water from the tank.

IMPORTANT: You can save the demineralized/dislled water that was not used, but only use it again for fog machine cleaning purposes, as traces of fog liquid have mixed with the water inside the tank.

NOTE: When the machine will not be used in the near future, you may leave the tank empty. The demineralized/dislled water will stay inside the machine, which is harmless. - Fill the machine with fog liquid and turn it back on. Let the heang process take place. When the fog machine is ready, let it perform at 100% output. You will notice that the machine produces steam, which will smoothly transform into fog as the fog liquid is pumped through the system.
