DMX Setting for Z-series fog machines with onboard DMX
Channel A
250-255
6 - 249
0 – 5
0 - 5 = OFF
6 – 249 = Volume Control ( 5% - 95%)
250 – 255 = Maximum Volume Output ( 100%)
The Z-1200, Z-1500 and Z-3000 fog machines all have onboard DMX control. Currently all three models use
1 channel to control volume output operation. Each channel has a value range of 0 to 255. Timer functions
such as duration and interval can be programmed using the DMX controller or the DMX control software
being used by lighting and effects operator.
If Channel A has a value from 0 to 5, the unit is OFF.
Between the values 6 to 249 the volume of fog output is regulated. With 6 being the minimum volume
of fog produced and 249 approaching the maximum. The volume output rises as the DMX value is
increased.
If Channel A has a value from 250 TO 255, the machine will operate at maximum output.
Note: In the example above, if the machine were assigned the DMX address of 124, Channel A would
correspond to DMX address 124.
In general, Antari fog machines with onboard DMX conform to the following performance specifications:
1. Average Operating temperature = 250ºC
2. Fogger can maintain maximum output for 30 seconds or more
3. Fogger can maintain constant output at 30% volume setting (roughly a value of 75).
