used in conjunction with the three rotary dials. The
dials alter the following:
Output: amount of fog created. Turn the dial
clockwise to increase the fog output.
Duration: is the amount of time the output is turned
on. Turning the dial clockwise increases the amount
of time the output is sustained.
Interval: is the time between the output of fog. If a
longer interval is required between duration then the
dial should be turned clockwise.
Having set up the three rotary dials for the time
desired, the timers on/off button should be latched
on, in order for the fog to output.
•
Please make sure that the timers on/off button is off
while the machine is heating up. If you don’t, the
machine will immediately and automatically start
outputting fog as soon as it has reached its operating
temperature.
•
Continuous fogging button. While the manual button
gives instant maximum fog output (regardless of the
position of the output dial), the Continuous fogging
button’s output is governed by the output dial. So, if
a minimum amount of fog is required, set the output
dial to minimum and press continuous fogging button.
Please remember that this is a latching button.
DMX Control
•
The fog machine can be controlled by using the DMX
Input instead of the normal remote input. DMX is a
digital signal widely used in stage lighting

If your Elektralite fogger is the last ‘fixture’ on the
line, do not forget to fit a terminator.
•
To set the DMX channel address, use the dip
Switches situated to the right of the connectors.
Move either a single dip switch or multiple switches
to the ‘on’ position to give you the correct dmx
address. For example, to set to channel 25; turn on
dip switches 5,4 and 1 (Combined the dmx channel
values together of 16+8+1=25).
Performance Notes
•
All fog machines develop condensation around the
output nozzle. Because this may result in some
moisture accumulation on the surface below the
output nozzle, consider this condensation when
installing your unit.
•
All fog machines may splutter small amounts of fog
occasionally during operation and for a minute or so
after being turned off.
•
All fog machines have a recycling period after long
bursts. The machine will ‘shut itself down’ for a short
period in order to heat back up. During this time no
fog can be produced. The green “READY” LED on the
remote will be off during this time and will light up
again when the machine is ready.
