SAFETY ISSUES:
NEVER POINT OR AIM A FOG MACHINE TOWARDS PEOPLE OR
THEIR CLOTHING. THIS UNIT EMITS HOT VAPOR AND SHOULD
BE USED WITH THE SAME CARE THAT YOU WOULD OBSERVE
WHEN USING AN ELECTRIC KETTLE OR IRON.
Please Note: Specications and improvements in the design of
this unit and this manual are subject to change without any prior
written notice.
• Be sure to save the packing carton in the unlikely event the unit
may have to be returned for service
• Do not spill water or other liquids into or on to your fogger. Be
sure that all the fog uid is kept inside the uid reservoir
• Be sure that the local power outlet match that or the required
voltage for your fog machine
• Do not remove the top cover under any conditions. There are no
user serviceable parts inside
• Disconnect the unit’s main power when left unused for long peri-
ods of time
• Never connect this unit to a dimmer pack
• Do not attempt to operate this unit, if it becomes damaged in anyway
• Never operate this unit when it’s cover is removed
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock or re, do not expose this
unit rain or moisture
• Do not attempt to operate this unit if the power cord has been fray ed or broken. Do not attempt to remove or break o the ground
prong from the electrical cord. This prong is used to reduce the
risk of electrical shock and re in case of an internal short
• Disconnect from main power before making any type of connection
• Never block the ventilation holes. Always be sure to mount this
unit in an area that will allow proper ventilation. Allow about 6”
(15cm) between this device and a wall
• This unit is intended for indoor use only, use of this product out doors voids all warranties
• Always mount this unit in a safe and stable matter
• Please route your power cord out of the way of foot trac. Power
cords should be routed so they are not likely to be walked on,
pinched by items placed upon or against them
• The unit should only be serviced by qualified service personnel
when:
A. The power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged.
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the unit.

Fog Fury Jett DMX Information Fog Fury Jett DMX Information
Power Supply: Before plugging your unit in, be sure the source volt-
age in your area matches the required voltage for your ADJ Fog Fury
Jett. The ADJ Fog Fury Jett is available in a 120v and 230v version.
Because line voltage may vary from venue to venue, you should be
sure your unit voltage matches the wall outlet voltage before attempting to operate you xture.
DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-
tocol used as a form of communication between intelligent fixtures
and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from
the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture to fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA
“OUT” terminal).
DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models of
dierent manufactures to be linked together and operate from a single
controller, as long as all xtures and the controller are DMX compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when using several
DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order
in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the
DMX addressing. For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1
may be placed anywhere in a DMX line, at the beginning, at the end,
or anywhere in the middle. When a fixture is assigned a DMX address
of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address 1
to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.
Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX Operation):
The Fog Fury Jett can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The Fog Fury
Jett has 5 DMX channel modes. The DMX address is set on the back
panel. Your unit and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR
connector for data input and data output (Figure 1).
We recommend Accu-Cable DMX cables. If you are
making your own cables, be sure to use standard
110-120 Ohm shielded cable (This cable may be purchased at almost all pro lighting stores). Your cables
should be made with a male and female XLR connector on either end of the cable. Also remember
that DMX cable must be daisy chained and cannot
be split.

Figure 1
Notice: Be sure to follow gures two and three when making your own
cables. Do not use the ground lug on the XLR connector. Do not connect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug or allow the shield
conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding
the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.

used, you may need to use a terminator on the last unit to avoid erratic
behavior. A terminator is a 110-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor which is connected between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and
DATA -). This unit is inserted in the female XLR connector of the last
unit in your daisy chain to terminate the line. Using a cable terminator
(ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibilities of erratic
behavior.
5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors.
512 data cables for DATA transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin DMX
xtures may be implemented in a 3-pin DMX line. When inserting standard 5-pin data cables in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must be used,
these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The chart
below details a proper cable conversion.
