TRANSMITTER REGISTRATION

After powering on, the LCD screen will show sequentially “Antari SW-250” and then “Wireless Setup…”. Press

button “A” on the transmitter(s) to register when see “Wireless Setup…” is on. There are totally 15 seconds for

finishing the registration of the transmitter(s). Once registration is completed, the LCD screen will blink and

beep. The LCD screen will finally show “Wireless Setup.OK” once the 15 seconds ends. Up to 5 transmitters

are allowed to be registered with one SW-250. The included transmitter has been registered with the machine

before shipment and can be directly operated without any start-up setting. Therefore, the registration is only

needed before use of new W-1.

Note: All transmitter(s) registration must be completed within 15 seconds or SW-250 has to be power on

again for next registration.

LCD CONTROL OPERATION

After transmitter(s) registration time ends, LCD screen will then show “Ready To Snow”. Now the machine is

ready for operating.

FUNCTIONS SETTING

Press Menu button for setting different functions per sequence as below.

Interval Set To set the interval time under timer mode by pressing Up/Timer and

Down/Volume buttons (20 to 2000 seconds).

Duration Set To set the duration time under timer mode by pressing Up/Timer and

Down/Volume buttons (10 to 200 seconds).

Timer Out To set the output volume under timer mode by pressing Up/Timer and

Down/Volume buttons (1 to 100 %).

Volume Out To set the output volume under continuous mode by pressing Up/Timer and

Down/Volume buttons (1 to 100 %).

DMX512 Add. To set the DMX channel under DMX control mode by pressing Up/Timer and

Down/Volume buttons (1 to 512 channels).

Wireless ON To activate/terminate the wireless control system by pressing Up/Timer and

Down/Volume buttons (ON/OFF). When wireless control system is activated, letter “W” will

be showed under main screen display “Ready To Snow”. Once the wireless control system is

terminated then the letter “W” will disappear accordingly.

Quick Start To activate / terminate quick start function by pressing Up/Timer and

Down/Volume buttons (ON/OFF). Once Quick Start function is on, the output job under timer

or continuous output (LCD/W-1/DMX) mode terminated by power off will be directly resumed

after power on again. When the unit is power off not under output mode then the LCD screen

will resume to “Ready To Snow” main screen display directly.

OUTPUT UNDER CONTINUOUS OUTPUT MODE

Press Down/Volume button to output continuously until Stop button is pressed.

AIR VOLUME SETTING

There’s a small button “AIR VOLUME” located at rear of the machine used for adjusting the fan output volume.

In general, when the fan output is increased the snow flakes produced are smaller. In contrast, when the fan

output is decreased, bigger snow flakes will be produced. However, the snow output volume will not be

affected.

Note: When the machine senses no fluid in the fluid pipe, LCD screen will blink and show “No Fluid”.

Meanwhile, the machine is locked and not able to output for preventing machine from further ineffective work.

Check immediately if the snow fluid in tank has been run out. To unlock the LCD screen, press Stop for

2 seconds and the machine will try to pump again the snow fluid. When the fluid pipe is full of snow fluid then

the machine will be functional again.

REMOTE CONTROL OPERATION

W-1: The wireless remote control W-1 consists of a transmitter equipped with two buttons for output on and off,

and a receiver pre-attached to SW-250.

* Transmitter

With the transmitter it is possible to output via radio over a distance of up to 50 meters. The transmitter is

compatible to any receiver of SW-250 and can control an unlimited number of machines in parallel. Press the

button “A”, to ouput. As control, the LED on the transmitter is lit. To stop the output, press the button “B”.

* Receiver

The receiver is tested and built in SW-250. Please do not try to remove it. The receiver responds to up to 5

different transmitters that are registered with the machine. The included transmitter has been registered with

the machine before shipment. It can be directly operated without any start-up setting.

Battery change on the transmitter

If the range of the transmitter decreases, the battery is probably exhausted and must be replaced. For this

purpose, take off the housing cover and remove the used battery. Insert a fresh 12 V battery, and refit the

housing cover.

SC-2 (Optional): 25 ft. wired ON/OFF and volume remote controller with 4 pin XLR plug.

Red Switch – ON/OFF

To output, switch to ON. To stop, switch to OFF.

Volume Knob

Adjust the output volume from 10% to 100% by turning the knob.

Red LED Indicator

When the remote is connected to the machine, the red LED will be on.

Green LED Indicator

When red switch is switched to ON, the green LED will be on.

DMX CONTROL OPERATION

SW-250 has on-board DMX control and the addressing is via LCD control panel. SW-250 uses 1 channel to

control output on/off and volume. The channel has a value range from 0 to 255. The on/off function can also

be programmed with a DMX controller or DMX control software used by lighting and effects operator.

Channel A

11-255 = ON (1%-100%)

0-10 = OFF

If the value of channel A is set between 0 to 10, the unit is off.

While the value is set between 11 to 255, the unit is on.

Note: Once DMX cable is connected to the unit, then the LCD control panel, W-1 transmitter and HC-1

controller connected cannot be used.

MAINTENANCE

1. Do not allow the snow liquid to become contaminated. Always replace the caps on the liquid container

and the snow machine liquid tank immediately after filling.

2. Before storing away after each operation, rinse the system with pure water and let it pump for at least

1or 2 minutes. This step helps to ensure a longer life-span of the motor and the nozzle.

3. It is strongly recommended to regularly clean the dust/residue around snow machines' vent holes (on

both sides of the machine). Simply use a small brush, a toothbrush for example, and gently brush in the

direction from top to bottom. This step helps to ensure that minimal debris will get into the machine or

causes clogging.

CAUTION

- Never drink snow fluid. If it is ingested and feel sick in any case, call the doctor immediately.

If haze fluid comes in contact with skin or eyes, rinse thoroughly with cold water.

- If you have followed the above operation steps, and you still experience low output, mechanical noise or

no output at all, unplug the unit immediately from the mains. Check the fluid level, the external fuse, the

remote control connection, and the power cable from the wall. If all of the above appears to be O.K., plug

again. If the machine is still not functional, discontinue operating otherwise it may result in permanent

damage to the unit. Return the machine to your Antari dealer.

SNOW FLUID

Antari SL-5/SL-5(A) fluid was designed for the use with Antari snow machines. Antari SL-5(A) is a non-toxic

solution that produces fast-dissipating snow.
