Turn on the heating function

• TheheatingfunctionofthesecondDMXchannelhasthevalue240-255.Ittakesabout5minutes

to preheat after power on.

• When the heating is turned on, the HEAT indicator light on the machine will turn to red and the

READYindicatorashesgreen.

• When heating is completed, the READY indicator lights steadily green and the machine enters

into sparking status.

ADJUST SPARKING HEIGHT

Adjustthesparkingheightviachannel1.TheDMXvalueofheightadjustmentis11-255.

The maxiumum height of indoor and outdoor granule is different. The maximum height of indoor

granuleis3.5mwhileoutdoorgranuleis5meters.Theheightanddirectionarealsoaffectedby

wind conditions.

ADJUST SPARKING DENSITY

The machine has an independent sparking density adjustment. You can control the density dur-

ing sparking which allows more special effects during the show.

The third channel is dedicated to the density adjustment. The density can be adjusted between

30and100%.Thedefaultsparkingdensityis100%.TheDMXvaluesare0-255.0means100%

density.ThehighertheDMXvalue,thelowerthedensity.
