GOLDEN FOG 2000 and 2000 DMX
Secure the bracket (6) to the body
of the smoke machine with the aid
of the screws (3) and toothed wa-
shers (4) specially supplied, then
position the bracket (6) according
to the desired angle and lock it
with the knobs (7).
The bracket (6) can also be moun-
ted towards the bottom of the fit-
ting. To do this, it is necessary to
fully extract the knobs (7) and
screws (3), reposition the bracket
(6) as preferred, put the knobs (7)
and screws (3) back in, together
with the toothed washers (4), then
lock the bracket (6) with the ap-
propriate angle.
• Installing the fitting
The fitting needs to be installed horizontally, the angle the machine makes must
be no greater than 30° so that no liquid will come out of the tank (8).
The GOLDEN FOG smoke machine can be stood "on the floor" on its rubber feet
(9).
If the fitting is installed "on the ceiling" it must be secured using solely the specific
mounting (6), through the hole in the centre of it. Use a screw ø10mm with nut
and spring washer.

• Mains power connection
Each fitting should be connected with its own switch so it can be switched on and
off individually from a distance.
The smoke machine has to be hooked up to the electricity mains via the specific
socket (2) supplied.

GOLDEN FOG fittings are equipped with a switch with an indicator light (10) that

CONNECTING CONTROL SIGNALS FOR 4
Smoke emission can be controlled by pressing button (11) on the rear panel of
the machine or the button on the low-voltage remote control (1) supplied with the
machine. The indicator light (12) on the remote control (1) warns that the boiler is
at temperature. It is also possible to control the fitting with a 0-10V analogue si-
gnal via a cable terminated with a Cannon 5-pin XLR plug.

GOLDEN FOG 2000 DMX
RS232/423(PMX)-DMX 512 connection

DMX 512
RS232/423
The connection between GOLDEN FOG 2000 DMX and the control unit and
between different fittings must be made with a cable in conformity with EIA RS-
485 specifications: braided, bipolar, shielded, 120
Ω
of characteristic impedance,
22-24 AWG, low capacity.
IMPORTANT: Do not use a microphone cable or any other cable with different
characteristics to the ones specified above.
IMPORTANT: The wires must make no contact with each other or with the metal
casing of the connectors. The casing needs to be connected to the braid of the
shield and to pin 1 of the connectors.
• Fitting codes
Each GOLDEN FOG 2000 DMX occupies one control channel. For this to be cor-
rectly addressed to each fitting, it is necessary to code the machines.
This has to be done on each single smoke machine, switching the microswitches
(14) according to the following table. Coding can also be done with the machine
switched off.

The terminations need to be made with male/female connectors type XLR with 5
pins.
If you use the DMX signal it is necessary to give the last fitting a terminal plug
(13) with a resistance of 120
Ω
(minimum 1/4 W) between terminals 2 and 3.
If using the RS232/423(PMX) signal, the terminal is not required.
