Testing; Set Up And Operation - SHOWTEC FX Shot Manual

10) If you want to operate one shooter via DMX, use a Single MKII (50396) to operate the FX Shot.
Make sure you always have an eye on the FX Shot, when you are operating the Multidim,
Multiswitch, Relay Pack or Single MKII.

Testing

When testing, make sure that no electric cannons are connected via the ignition plug to the FX Shot.
1) Test the operation of the FX Shot by connecting the IEC cable to the mains power supply. Once the
blue LED above the FX Shot lights up, you know that the FX Shot is properly connected.
2) For DMX Operation also check if the blue LED lights up when activating/engaging your specific DMX
setup or DJ switch setup work.
3) Carefully plug the electric cannon ignition connector into the input on top of the FX Shot. This
connector has a recess, so that the plug can only be plugged into the socket one way.
Be careful: Always look before plugging the connector into the socket.
If the blue LED is on, immediately stop. Disconnect the FX Shot from the mains power supply and
check your setup. If the blue LED is lit, then the cannon can shoot off its confetti, when the connector is
put into the socket.

Set Up and Operation

Before plugging the unit in, always make sure that the power supply matches the product specification
voltage. Do not attempt to operate a 120V specification product on 230V power, or vice versa.
Remove all packing materials from the FX Shot. Check that all foam and plastic padding is removed.
Always disconnect from electric mains power supply before cleaning or servicing.
Damages caused by non-observance are not subject to warranty.
Make sure that after testing, you disengage the switchpack.
The blue LED must be off.
ONLY connect the ignition plug when the blue LED is OFF !!!
