Pressure Discharge manual Valve is for
-Stop or allow the pressurized liquid to flow
into the fuel reservoir from accumulator.
Before the pump working, close this VALVE
to get the working pressure. After the show,
open this VALVE to remove the pressurized
fuel from accumulator, pumps and piping.
-When you get new machine from us, or you
use it again after fully draining, you need to
work only pump for 10 sec to remove air
inside piping, pumps and accumulator at the
open position of this VALVE.
E-Stop SW
- E-stop SW is for cutting power to solenoid
valves and spark igniters.

4 . Handling Hurricane AW
4.1 Definition of the audience-side
The control panel side, is the audience-side of the device. This is the side the audience should be seeing during the
show. All Sequences and Positions have been made from this point of view. All important Positions for the device
as well as the movement labels left, middle and right, are only correct, if the device has been placed in this way.
The following graphic shows Hurricane AW from above, and is meant to give you an idea of the labeling.
Left Middle Right
AUDIENCE
4. 2 Definition of Positions
The spectrum of 180°can be used. This spectrum was separated into 9 positions in steps of 22.5°for the control.
These 9 positions were numbered from 1 to 9, and the left end defined as 0°. The following graphic depicts the
single positions as seen from the audience side. When you turn on Hurricane AW, ignition box is located at 90°.
Then, when Hurricane AW gets signal from DMX controller, it moves to the angle of 0°(1) automatically and enter
to standy mode.

4.3. DMX Channels
Hurricane AW has 19 DMX channels as follows.
CH Function DMX key Definition Remark
1 Angle Channel 0-255 Moving flame head to the angle
2 Flame Channel 200-255 You can shoot flame manually or you can program
your own flame show with this flame channel
differently from single stepp sequences or autoshow.
This flame channel works only after pump and
ignition works. Without pump and ignition working,
this channel does not work.
Below 6bar, flame
channel does not work
below 6 bar.
3 Electric spark 200-255 Electric spark ignition works only after pump starts. Electric spark channel
4 Pump 200-255 Turn on and off the pump(pump stops automatically
at 18bar and below 14bar, re-start to secure enough
working pressure. Initially, Pump needs 10 sec to get
working pressure 16bar then, can start the show
Working pressure : 16-
18bar.
5 Stepp sequence

4.4. channel 1: Angle (Starting address)
Ignition and flame jet box is located at 90 degree position originally. When it receives dmx signal, it moves to
0 degree position. This Channel is for setting shooting angle and each angle is determined by dmx key value.
4.5. Channel 2: Flame – solenoid valve (Starting address +1)
This flame channel is for making your own sequences or manual flame shooting. Under the condition of pump
and electric spark working, the flame channel works. Under that condition, when you turn on this channel, you
can shoot a single flame as you wish in shooting time and shooting angle. If you do not want to use pre-
programmed sequences, you can make your own sequences with this flame channel.
This channel is locked for 10 seconds for safety reason whenever the device is power on.
4.5. Channel 3: Electric Spark (Starting address +2)
The third channel (starting address +2) activates the electric spark with dmx values 200 and 255. Only after
pump starts, it can work. Without pump start, this electric spark channel does not work.
4.6. Channel 4: Pump (Starting address +3)
Hurricane AW has 2 pumps inside the device. After pump pressurizes fuel upto 18bar, it goes into the standby
mode(stop working) and when the pressure falls below 14 bar, it works again to get 18 bar.
4.7. Channel 5(Starting address + 4): Program of Stepp Sequence of single flame shot
Hurricane AW has a number of pre-made sequences, allowing you to access certain sequences with 5th channel
Below, you can find a single flame shot(20ms, 0.2sec.) at each angle of dmx key value.
