FS-DMXT™ DMX TIMER REMOTE
DMX Timer Remote: With the DMX Timer Remote you can operate the fog output automatically and
turn either the Fog Storm 1200HD™ or 1700HD™ into a two channel DMX intellingent unit. The DMX Timer
Remote must be connected to both the fog machine and a universal DMX-512 controller such as the Elation®
DMX Operator™ or Show Designer.™
WHEN DMX MODE IS ACTIVE THE TIMER FUNCTION WILL NOT WORK.
1. Assign a DMX address to the Fog Storm 1200HD™ or 1700HD™ using the dipswitches on the side of the
DMX Timer Remote.
NOTE: The dipswitches on the side of the DMX Timer Remote are for addressing the fog machine
only.
2. Connect the male XLR cable of the DMX Timer Remote to the female input connection of the universal
DMX-512 controller. Channel 1 controls fog duration and Channel 2 controls the interval time.
3. You can now daisy chain other DMX intelligent lights. Start with the female input connector on the front of
the DMX Timer Remote.
NOTE: The DMX Timer Remote must be the first unit connected to the universal DMX-512 controller.
Timer Function: The timer function allows haze to be emitted at designated intervals. The remote has three
(3) L.E.D.s that indicate different functions.
WHEN DMX MODE IS ACTIVE THE TIMER FUNCTION WILL NOT WORK.
- The RED L.E.D. located to the left will indicate the timer and controller is turned on and is activated.

- The RED L.E.D. located to the right is for manual fogging, wait for the GREEN L.E.D. to light up, then press
the button.

- The Duration knob serves two functions 1) Turns the timer on and off. 2) Sets the timers duration (Length
of fog output).

these knobs in a clockwise direction will increase there values, turning them in a counter-clockwise direc-
tion will decrease their values.
