GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
The Delta 6000 fog machine is a unique fog system that consists of a base unit that can
operate from any of three remote controls. Because of the variation in operability between the
different remotes, there is an operations section for each remote. First follow the General
Operating Instructions and then go to the section for the remote that is being used. If there is
doubt about which remote is being used, please reference the picture in each section.
Note: The ROSCO DELTA 6000 base unit will ONLY operate with one of the remote
controls attached.
1. POWER HOOK-UP
Plug the power cord on the base unit into a socket rated at the proper voltage and amperage.
The machine requires a dedicated power circuit.
Note: If the Delta 6000 was received without a connector on the power cord, please wire an
appropriate connector for the voltage and amperage rating of the machine. The connector
should be wired according to the following wire code: Brown=Hot (Live); Blue=Neutral;
Green/Yellow=Ground (Earth).
2. REMOTE CONTROL
If it is not already plugged in, plug the remote control into the RJ-45 socket in the cavity at
the rear of the base unit marked “Remote Control”. The green LED over the POWER button
should blink indicating that the Delta is receiving power. The Delta 6000 can ONLY operate
with a remote control attached.
Note: The remote attaches with standard computer Category 5 cable using an RJ-45
connection. Although this connection is the same as an ethernet connection, the Delta 6000 is
NOT an ethernet-ready device. Do not try to operate the Delta from an ethernet control.
3. WARM UP
Push the button marked POWER on the remote. This will turn on the electronics and the unit
will start to heat. Let the machine warm up for about ten minutes until the remote indicates
“READY”. The Delta 6000 is now ready to make fog as long as the remote indicates that the
machine is “READY” and there is fluid in the reservoir.
4. FLUID DELIVERY
Place either two 2.5-liter or two 4-liter size bottles of any Rosco fluid in the cavity located at
the rear of the machine. Place the end of each of the tubes coming out of the top of the
machine into each of the bottles. Caps are provided that fit on the bottles. The caps will also
fit a standard 1-liter Rosco bottle. Plug the end of the Low Fluid Sensor into the jack on the
top of the machine.
CAUTION: Both bottles should be the same size and the same type of fluid.
Low Fluid Sensor: The Delta 6000 is equipped with a Low Fluid Sensor. When fluid reaches
a certain point in the bottle the remote will indicate that the fluid is running low. This is
