Fitting/connecting the remote control unit:
You will find the remote control unit plugged into the back of the machine and secured by
two finger screws. This unit can be removed from the machine and mounted in a rack
system or placed on a table. Please follow this procedure to remove the unit:
Unscrew the two finger screws and draw out the remote control unit by pulling the finger
screws. Where the remote control unit was mounted, you will now see a XLR-male
connector which will now be known as the
control input
.
Use the 5 metre XLR/XLR cable that came with the machine to connect any of the two
remote control unit XLR outputs to the control input on the Magnum Pro 2000. Any
standard balanced microphone cable can be used for this extension.
Please note that it is not important to which of the XLR control outputs you connect the
machine but do never connect two machines directly to one remote control unit.
OPERATING VIA THE REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
Having ensured that your Magnum Pro 2000 is properly installed, you may now connect it
to the mains. This will automatically turn the machine on to stand-by.
Switching on:
To enable the heater circuit, simply turn the remote control potentiometer clock wise until
it clicks and the red POWER LED turns on. Located on the back of the Magnum Pro 2000
are three LED’s which indicate the following:
POWER (red LED): The same as the Power LED on the remote control unit. The POWER
LED will always be on when the heater circuit is enabled.
HEAT (red LED): This LED indicates that the machine is heating. Switching on a ’cold’
machine will instantly start heating and it will normally take 8 to 10 minutes until it stops
heating again. At the end of the heating period the heat LED will start flashing fast and then
slowly until it turns off, thus indicating that the heating element has reached maximum
temperature and the heating process is terminated.
READY (green LED). This LED indicates that the machine is ready for operation. When the
READY LED is off, it will NOT be possible to produce smoke, since the temperature of the
heating element will not be high enough.
Please note that the HEAT LED and READY LED can be on simultaneously, meaning that
smoke production is possible even though the machine is heating.
Manual operation:
As soon as the green READY LED turns on you may start producing smoke, simply by
pressing the
smoke button
on the remote control unit. The level of the smoke emission can
be adjusted via the
smoke output potentiometer
. The fluid pump will stop instantly when
you release the smoke button, however, the smoke emission will continue for another few
seconds, due to fluid already pumped into the heating element.
