The unit can be operated in a standard upright position or laid flat using optional feet (if included).

5.4 Кубат туташтыруу

Connect the provided power cord to the power input on the rear panel of the ANF350, then plug the other end into a grounded electrical outlet of the correct voltage.

5.5 DMX Setup (Optional)

If using DMX control, connect a DMX cable from your DMX controller to the DMX IN port on the ANF350. If daisy-chaining multiple DMX devices, connect from the DMX OUT of the ANF350 to the DMX IN of the next device. Set the DMX address using the DIP switches on the rear panel according to your DMX controller's instructions.

6. Операция

6.1 Күйгүзүү

After connecting power and fluid, flip the main power switch on the rear panel to the 'ON' position. The machine will begin its warm-up cycle. The status indicator will typically illuminate to show heating progress. Once ready, the indicator will change (e.g., turn solid green).

6.2 Кол менен башкаруу

Once the machine is ready, use the 'Smoke' knob to adjust the fog output intensity and the 'Fan' knob to control the fan speed, which affects the dispersion of the fog.

6.3 DMX башкаруусу

When a DMX signal is received, the ANF350 automatically turns on and begins heating. You can then control the fog output and fan speed via your DMX controller, using the assigned DMX channels. Refer to your DMX controller's manual and the ANF350's DMX chart (usually found in a separate DMX supplement or on the unit itself) for specific channel assignments.
