3 - inTroduCTion
ZEPHIRO 600 SPARK is a device that creates fountains of cold sparks from 2 to 5m
high (6.5 – 16.5 ft), and controlled via DMX-512 or wireless remote. The consumable,
based on Titanium powder, does not contain gunpowder, so it is absolutely safe,
does not produce toxic fumes, and is not harmful to the environment. Therefore, it
offers an effect comparable to traditional fireworks or pyrotechnics, but without
their danger. It can be used indoors or outdoors, even though it cannot be directly
exposed to rain, snow and mud.
The design is very compact and the all-metal construction accentuates its robust-
ness, confirming that it is a device designed to easily overcome the rigors of the
stage. The heart of the machine is based on precision motors with chain transmis-
sion system, in order to reduce noise and fumes, and increase the efficiency in spark
production.
It is also available a 4-unit flight-case (optional) with 70mm wheels - 2 of which
with brake - and compartment for cables and accessories, for typical rental or live
applications. Check www.centolight.com or ask your retailer.

shown above with a Phillips screwdriver.
CAUTION: Replace the fuse ONLY with one of the same type indicated in the sec-
tion “Specication” on page 21 (T6.3A/250V - 5x20 mm). A lower value fuse
would blow immediately after the rst power on; a higher value would not act
as a fuse in case of anomalous current absorption or short circuit.
WARNING: Always connect the product to a protected circuit (with circuit break-
er). Make sure the machine has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the
risk of electric shock or re.
WARNING: Never connect the ZEPHIRO 600 SPARK to a rheostat (variable
resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel serves only
as a 0 to 100 % switch.

DMX OUTPUT - Female 3-pin XLR socket for sending the DMX control signal to
another spark machine or other DMX device.
DMX machines are designed to receive data through a serial Daisy Chain. A Daisy
Chain connection is where the DATA OUT of one fixture connects to the DATA IN of
the next fixture. The order in which the machines are connected is not important
and has no effect on how a controller communicates to each of them. Use an order
that provides for the easiest and most direct cabling.

CAUTION: Wires must not come into contact with each other; otherwise the x-
tures will not work at all, or will not work properly.
4.4. DMX Terminator
DMX is a resilient communication protocol, however errors still occasionally occur.
In order to prevent electrical noise from disturbing and corrupting the DMX control
signals, a good habit is to connect DMX output of last fixture in the chain to a DMX
terminator, especially over long signal cable runs.
The DMX terminator is simply an XLR connector with a 120Ω (ohm), 1/4 Watt resistor
connected across Signal (-) and Signal (+), respectively, pins 2 and 3, which is then
plugged into the output socket on last projector in the chain. The connections are
illustrated below.

4.5.3-Pin vs 5-Pin DMX cables
DMX connection protocols used by controllers and fixtures manufacturers are not
standardized around the world. However, two are the most common standards:
5-Pin XLR and 3-Pin XLR system. If you wish to connect MOOD 185 WASH to a 5-Pin
XLR input fixture, you need to use an adapter-cable or make it by yourself.

The green READY LED flashes until the temperature reaches 555.
At this point the machine is ready to go but the temperature is not enough to pro-
duce a fountain of bright and powerful sparks. It is strongly recommended to wait
for the HEAT LED to switch off as well. The risk is that the dust does not produce
sparks and, even if blown upwards, it will fall back as dust yet.
8 - HeaT indiCaTor
The red HEAT LED is on until the temperature reaches 592.
The heating system switches off and slowly the machine cools down (especially if
used outside in winter); the temperature value on the display goes down to 578. At
this point the heating cycle starts again and the temperature goes up again to 592.
And so you go on for the entire time the machine is used.

11 - MainTenanCe
The machine requires minimal upkeep in order to maintain optimum performance.
However, some steps are needed in order to clean and maintain the product for
maximum usage. The recommended procedure is as follows:
yAfter a period of using, check if there is any consumable inside the nozzle. Do
necessary cleaning up if there has some, or it may affect spark performance,
even damage the machine.
yTest-run your spark machine on a monthly basis to achieve the best perfor-
mance.
ySpark seed would easily get damp in the open air and deliver poor spark effect.
Storing damp spark seed in the machine storage bin will do harm to machine
and cause clogging. Please empty the storage bin after each use.
ySpark seed should be stored in a cool, dry place, vacuum packed in re-sealable
foil bags, and protected from moisture, heat, hot surface, open fire and other
ignition sources.
