Setting Up; Final Checks; Turning On The Power - JEM Glaciator Dynamic User Manual

Before connecting the machine to power, verify that the AC supply is adequately
dimensioned for the current draw of the machine.
Check that the local AC voltage is appropriate, as indicated on the machine's
serial number label. If your AC voltage is outside the appropriate range, do not
use the machine. Contact Martin Service and Support for assistance.

Fill the low-fog fluid reservoir with a suitable Martin JEM low-fog fluid as shown
on page 20. If DMX control is being used, connect the machine to the DMX line
(see page 17).
F i n a l c h e c k s
Before applying power to the machine, verify the following:
• the machine is safely located or installed and meets the location
requirements stated on page 10
• the operator is familiar with, and able to comply with, the requirements
for safe operation listed on page 4.
• the fluid is one of the genuine Martin JEM low-fog fluids listed under
"Fluid options" on page 20.
• the machine is electrically grounded (earthed)
the AC power distribution circuits and lines are adequately rated for the
•
current load

Ensure the mains circuit breaker on the rear of the unit is set to the 'ON' (I)
position. The display will show HEAT and the heating and cooling systems will
both start. If the display shows OFF, press the FOG button on the control panel or
set the RUN MODE to CONTINUOUS. After about 6-8 minutes if no DMX is
connected the display should show FOG LEVEL (along with the set output level)
and the machine will begin producing fog. If DMX is connected the display will
show DMX when the machine is ready.
The machine will remember its state from when it was turned off last
•
time, so it will only power up in OFF mode if you have previously
disabled the heaters.
To obtain optimal output, wait another few minutes after the READY
indication is shown, as the machine continues to heat and cool to
full operating temperature and low-fog output is reduced while the
unit is heating up.
If the machine is restarted after a short off period (less than 5
minutes), the cooling system will need 5 minutes or more to reach a
temperature at which low-fog can be produced again.
