I NTRODUCTION important! READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS! Thank you for selecting a JEM AF series fan. The AF-1 and AF-2 fans are powerful machines designed for professional and semi-professional use in clubs, TV studios, theaters and touring contexts. They are suitable for a wide range of applications including smoke and haze dispersal, sending smoke through ducting, wind effects and cooling performers or equipment.
• • • • Adjustable flying bracket offering 180° of tilt Can be flown or placed on a flat surface Rugged construction. Sealed high-quality maintenance-free fan motor offers high airflow, high resistance to condensation, ingress of dirt, smoke fluid, etc. and low noise. The AF-1 can also be controlled singly or on a multiple link using an analog 0 - 10 V controller. Safety information Warning! This product is not for household use.
• Do not spill fluid over the machine. If fluid is spilled, disconnect the machine from power and clean with a damp cloth. If fluid is spilled onto electronic parts, contact an approved JEM/Martin dealer for advice. • Do not dismantle or attempt to repair a faulty machine. Refer all service to an authorized JEM/Martin service dealer. • Do not operate the machine if the power cable or connector is damaged. A damaged cable or connector must be replaced with a new item, available from your JEM/Martin dealer.
I NSTALLATION This product must be installed by qualified personnel only. AC power AF-1 and AF-2 fans are available in two versions: • US version: 115 V, 50/60 Hz (for use with 105-115 VAC, 60 Hz power supplies) • EU version: 230 V, 50/60 Hz (for use with 220-245 VAC, 50 Hz power supplies) Fans are supplied set up to match local voltage and frequency settings. The factory default setting is shown on the serial number label.
Following the cord cap manufacturer’s instructions, connect the yellow and green wire to ground (earth), the blue wire to neutral and the brown wire to live. The table on page 8 shows some pin identification schemes: Physical installation The AF-1 fan may be suspended from a suitable support such as a truss, placed on a horizontal surface resting on its rubber feet, or fastened to a surface. The AF-2 fan may be suspended from a suitable support such as a truss.
by the clamp manufacturer, through the 13 mm hole in the center of the mounting bracket. • AF-2 fan: Two rigging options exist. Either: a) Bolt two rigging clamps to two Martin standard omega brackets (P/N 91602001) using grade 8.8 (minimum) M12 bolts and lock nuts, or as recommended by the clamp manufacturer. Fasten the two omega brackets to the flying bracket or touring frame. This option allows the fan to be flown in line with or at 90° to a truss.
I NSTALLING CONTROL HARDWARE The AF-1 and AF-2 fans can be operated either using the JEM multifunction remote control unit supplied with each machine, or via DMX using a DMX control device and serial data link. The AF-1 can also be operated using a 0 - 10 volt DC analog control device. Up to four AF-1 fans can be linked in remote and 10 V analog operation. Remote control installation To connect the remote control unit: 1. Power fans off. 2.
AF-1 10 V control installation AF-1 fan speed can be controlled by connecting a suitable analog 0 - 10 volts DC controller via the ANALOG IN connector. Up to four machines can be linked on an analog control link. To create an analog control link: 1. Power fans off. 2. Connect a suitable cable to the controller’s output and the first fan’s analog input. 3. Use suitable cable to connect the first fan’s analog output to the next fan’s analog input, and continue connecting fans output to input. 4.
To connect to devices with reversed polarity, use a phase-reversing adaptor (P/N 11820006). To connect the AF-1 to a device with a 5-pin output, use a 5-pin male to 3pin female XLR adaptor cable (P/N 11820005). To connect the AF-1 to a device with a 5-pin input, use a 3-pin male to 5-pin female adaptor cable (P/N 11820004).
The DMX address on AF-1 and AF-2 fans can be set to any channel from 1 to 512 using DIP-switch pins 1 - 10: 1. Decide on an available DMX address for each machine. 2. Look up the DIP-switch settings using the Martin Address Calculator at http://www.martin.dk/service/utilities/AddrCalc/index.asp, or look for the address in the DIP-switch settings table on page 15. For example, to set the DMX address to 101, you need to set DIP-switch pins 1, 3, 6 and 7 to ON, as shown in the illustration below: 3.
DMX address DIP-switch settings To use this table, first find the DMX address in the main block in the table. Then read the settings for pins 1 - 5 to the left and read the settings for pins 6 - 9 above the address. “0” means OFF and “1” means ON. For example, to set the DMX address to 101, you need to set DIP-switch pins 1, 3, 6 and 7 to ON, as highlighted in the table.
O PERATION Before powering on, check that the fan is correctly and safely installed. Using fans with smoke machines When using a fan in combination with a smoke machine, fog machine or hazer, place the fan behind the machine, as illustrated on the right. Do not place the fan in front of the machine and direct the output from the machine into the fan, as this will cause undesirable residue build-up and the fan blades will degrade the quality of the smoke.

B STANDBY – Puts the fan into standby mode. Must be set to ON to operate in any mode.
To set timer operation using the remote control: 1. Set the desired amount of airflow using the SPEED control 2. Set intervals between operating periods by setting the DELAY control to between 1 and 9. 3. Set duration of operating periods by setting the RUN control to between 1 and 9. 4. Set the STANDBY button to ON 5. Set the TIMER ON button to ON. The CYCLE LED lights when the timer function is active. To extend timer settings, press the X8 button. This will multiply both RUN and DELAY times by 8.
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE Any service procedure not described here should be referred to a qualified technician. Disconnect the fan from power before removing any grills or covers. Cleaning Clean the outside of the fan with a damp cloth only. Do not use solvents. Periodic cleaning of the fan blades and grills is necessary to maintain peak performance. Cleaning intervals will depend on the operating environment.
AF -2 cleaning access 1. Disconnect the fan from power. 2. Remove the 16 cross-head screws from the covers (see illustration above), and remove the covers. 3. Reaching into the fan housing for access to the locking nuts, remove the four 6mm Allen screws holding the front grill (see illustration on right), collecting all washers and grommets for reuse. Note: the front grill is on the opposite side from the fan motor.
grommets (A) are seated in the fan housing (B). If this assembly sequence is not respected, the AF-2 will be excessively noisy. B A Replacing the main fuse The main fuse can be replaced by the user if necessary. An indication that the main fuse may have blown is that the Power LED (on the AF-1 only) or the Data status LED (on AF-1 and AF-2 fans) does not light when: • power is applied, and • the remote control or a valid DMX signal is present.
TROUBLESHOOTING Problem No light from status LEDs on remote control or fan Probable cause(s) Suggested remedy No power Check power supply and connections Remote control not set to Standby Press Standby button Remote control not connected Check connections Fuse blown Replace fuse with one of same type and rating. If fuse blows repeatedly, consult your JEM/Martin dealer.
