Switch off the smoke machine and disconnect from the mains after use.
DMX Control
DMX connection:
Multiple smoke machines can be linked through serial linking. Connect the 3-pin XLR output [5] of
the smoke machine to the 3-pin XLR input [5] of the next smoke machine in the series using a high-
quality, two-core, screened cable (not included).
DMX chain with terminator:
A DMX terminator is recommended for installations where the DMX cable has to
run a long distance or used in an electrically noisy environment (e.g. discos).
The terminator prevents corruption of the digital control signal by electrical
noise. The DMX terminator is simply an XLR plug with a 120 Ω resistor between
pins 2 and 3, which is then plugged into the XLR output socket of the last device
in the chain.
DMX start address selection:
All DMX-controlled devices need a digital start address so that the correct device responds to the
signals. This digital start address is the channel number from which the device starts to "listen" to
the DMX controller.
You can use the same starting address for a whole group of smoke machines or enter an individual
one for every smoke machine.
When all smoke machines have the same address, all the units will "listen" to the control signal on
one particular channel. In other words: changing the settings of one channel will affect all smoke
machines simultaneously. If you set different addresses, each smoke machine will "listen" to a
separate channel number. Changing the settings of one channel will only affect the smoke machine in
question.
In the case of the 1-channel VDP1500SM3, you will have to set the start address of the first smoke
machine to 1, the second smoke machine to 2 (1 + 1), the third to 3 (2 + 1), and so on.
Use the smoke machine as described in Stand-Alone Use. Note that the series of smoke machines
can be controlled using only one remote control connected to any of the units in the series.
Switch off the smoke machine and disconnect from the mains after use.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Switch off the smoke machine and disconnect from the mains before any maintenance and
cleaning operation.
The smoke machine must be cleaned after every 40 hours of use. We recommend using the
HQPower™ VDLCL liquid to thoroughly clean the tank, feeding tube and spray nozzle. Remove or use
up all the smoke liquid inside the tank and fill half of the tank with the cleaning liquid. Reconnect the
smoke machine to the mains and switch on [1]. Let the smoke machine run in automatic mode
(red button [10]) until all cleaning liquid is used. Switch off [1] the smoke machine and let it cool
down.
Clean the housing of your smoke machine and remote control on a regular basis. Use a moist, lint-
free cloth. Avoid using alcohol or solvents.
Store the smoke machine and remote control in a cool, dry and clean location.
