Operating Procedure
Stand Alone Operation
1. Insert a 2 or 4 Litre Jug of Ultratec Special Effects Neutron or Luminous 7 Haze Fluid into the fluid jug holder.
2. Remove the cap and break the foil seal. Insert the fluid pickup tube into the jug and tighten the lid. Ensure the fluid filter
located at the end of the tube sits at the lowest end especially if the machine is not mounted level.
3. An optional Versa Fan can be controlled at the same rate as the internal fan. Plug a matching voltage fan into the
U-Ground (120 volt) or Lockable Volex Connector (220-240 volt). It will now vary with the internal fan control.
4. The Haze Rate and Fan Control is limited to 8 steps plus OFF for the assist fan and the haze rate. The DMX switches are
used to select the desired operation. The 'Hundreds' switch must be set to 6 before the unit is turned on. This starts the
unit in stand-alone mode. This mode is indicated by the valid DMX light flashing. The 'Tens' switch controls the haze
rate. '0' is off, 1-8 runs from low to full (9 is the same level as 8). For minimum Flow Rate use DMX or Optional Hand
Remote Control. The 'Ones' switch controls the assist fan in the same way, 1-8 is low to full. The fan has a minimum
setting and should always run when the power is applied. The fan only speeds up when haze is issued.
5.
Plug the unit into a suitable power source. Turn the main power switch on and it will illuminate if power
is present. The valid DMX light should also now be flashing. The heat up time is approximately 7 minutes before
haze can be produced. The Green LED indicates "Heating" when "Flashing" and "Ready" when LED is "Solid".
A three flash pattern indicates an over temperature error.
Operation with Hand Remote
1. Insert a 2 or 4 Litre jug of Ultratec Special Effects Neutron or Luminous 7 Haze Fluid into the fluid jug holder.
2. Remove the cap and break the foil seal. Insert the fluid pickup tube into the jug and tighten the lid. Ensure the fluid filter
located at the end of the tube sits at the lowest end especially if the machine is not mounted level.
3. An optional Versa Fan can be controlled at the same rate as the internal fan. Plug a matching voltage fan into the
U-Ground (120 volt) or Lockable Volex Connector (220-240 volt). It will now vary with the internal fan control.
4. Plug the Hand Remote cable into the rear connector marked remote. Please Note: DMX control will override the hand
remote settings. DMX control is indicated when the valid DMX light is solid RED. If the DMX LED is flashing, the unit is
in Stand Alone Mode; change the DMX switches to "000" and repower the machine.
5. Plug the unit into a suitable power source. Turn the main power switch on and it will illuminate if power is present. The
heat up time is approximately 7 minutes before haze can be produced. The Hand Remote indicates the heating cycle
when the laze switch light is flashing. When the unit is ready to haze the light will be solid. A three flash pattern indicates
an over temperature error. The rear panel Green LED indicates the same status.
6. The haze rate can be switched on, off and varied by using the Hand Remote controls. Haze output increases as the
variflow knob turns clockwise.
7. The assist fan is always on low. Fan speed can be increased by rotating the fan knob clockwise. The fan only speeds up
during haze output.
8. The interval knob is used to provide cycled output. It must be set fully counter-clockwise when not in use. The hazer will
produce 10 seconds of output at the requested flow spaced by a 1 - 300 seconds interval dependent upon the knob
position.
DMX Operation
9. Insert a 2 or 4 Litre jug of Ultratec Special Effects Neutron or Luminous 7 Haze Fluid into the fluid jug holder.
10. Remove the cap and break the foil seal. Insert the fluid pickup tube into the jug and tighten the lid. Ensure the fluid filter
located at the end of the tube sits at the lowest end especially if the machine is not mounted level.
