Description
The Titan 1500 PRO features an Over-sized Heater Core to increase run times, Quick Ready Fog Technology (QRFT) has you ready to fog in
less than 10 seconds after full cycle and it is ready to fog, and Advanced Low Fluid Sensing shuts down the machine when you run out of
fluid to protect the heater core. The 1500 PRO also boasts a whopping 1600W heater core to produce over 30,000 CFM. Instant Stop
Technology (IST) pulls fluid out of core to reduce spitting and give precise fog output.

To determine the products power requirements (circuit breaker, power outlet, and wiring), use the current value listed on the label affixed to
the products back panel, or refer to the products specifications chart. The listed current rating indicates the product's average current draw
under normal conditions.
Always connect the product to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse). Make sure the product has an appropriate electrical
ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.

there will have a Wireless Pairing process at the start-up of the machine. New wireless remote controller(s) can be paired with
machine during this process before the progress bar reaches the end.
WirelessPairing
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
• If no new pairing happens during the paring process at the start-up, the previous paired remote controller(s) will be retained.
• Once there a new pairing occurs during pairing process, all the previous paired remote controller(s) in previous pairing process
will be forgotten.
• During the wireless pairing process (if wireless mode is on), one machine can be paired with up to 5 RF wireless remote
controllers with different address codes and controlled by all of them simultaneously.
• All the paring of RF wireless remote controllers (up to 5 units) must be done during the same paring process.
• Once a machine is paired with a remote with certain address code, it can be controlled by all the same type pf controller with
same address code.
• One wireless remote controller can be paired and memorized by multiple machines simultaneously and control all the paired
machines at the same time (if within range).
• If the machine doesn't need to be controlled by wireless, then just turn off the wireless option in the menu.

Fluid Sensor
This machine uses software-based fluid sensor to detect whether there is fluid inside tube so as to protect the pump from being damaged.
Turn on the “Fluid Sensor” to activate “No Fluid Protection” function.
5.6.1
Trigger “No-Fluid Protection”
When the Fluid Sensor is ON, the software-based “no-fluid protection” function will be activated. After the program continues to detect
the machine working with no fluid inside the tube for 1 minute, the pump-shutoff will be activated with the flickering warning page showing
on the screen.
5.6.2
Clear “No-Fluid Protection” Warning
When the machine is under the no-fluid protection, after refilling the fluid, there are three ways to clear the warning.
• Press and hold ENTER until the fluid is pumped and fill the tube.
• Under the DMX control mode, bring down channel 1 to OFF (value 0-9), then up to ON (value 10-255),
• Turn off “Fluid Sensor” in the menu.

Maintenance
Do not allow the TITAN 1500 Pro to become clogged. After every 40 hours of continuous operation, use distilled water or for a more thorough
clean Froggys Fully Clean after use to prevent the accumulation of particulate matter in the heating element.
The recommended cleaning procedure is as follows.
1) Unplug the product from power.
2) Empty all fluid from the machine.
3) Dip fluid intake tube into 1 cup of cleaning solution/ distilled water.
4) Connect the product to power and allow it to warm up.
5) Run the product in a well-ventilated area until the cup is empty. Do not allow the pump to run dry.
6) Repeat until satisfied with fog output.
7) Refill with fog fluid to continue using the TITAN 1500 Pro. Run the machine briefly to clear any cleaning solution from the pump
and heater.
8) Excessive dust, fluid residue and dirt will degrade performance and cause overheating. Remove dust from air vents with air
compressor, vacuum or soft brush. The casing could be cleaned by the damp cloth.
Test-run your FROGGYS FOG® TITAN 1500 Pro on a monthly basis to achieve the best performance.
