## Setting up the Illumin8 Max kiosk

Step 1: Installing Your Apple iPad Tablet  
Remove the four (4) thumbscrews on back of top piece.

bracket. Install your Apple iPad tablet and plug your iPad's charging cable into the iPad  
tablet. Then, screw back in the three (3) wing nuts and four (4) thumb screws to secure the plate.

Step 2: Assembly  
Place the pedestal onto the base piece. Secure the pedestal to the base to base piece  
using three thumb screws.

3. Cable Management  
Run the three cables out of back of top piece and into pedestal (one is the ringlight  
power cable, one is the LED light power cable and the third is the iPad power cable.)  
Plug the iPad's charging adapter into the power strip and plug the iPad's charging cable  
into the adapter.

Now you can slide the top piece onto the bracket and secure with the large thumb screw.

4. Ring Light and GB LED Light Controls  
There are three lighting controls; two for the ring light and one for the GB LED effects on  
the photo booth kiosk.

Rotary dial on back of top piece: this setting provides a dimmable pure  
white light around the ring light and is what is displayed when guests take  
photos.

Small remote on back of top piece: this provides variable GB and effects  
around the ring light. This is called the 'Attract Lighting' mode as it's used to  
attract guests to use the photo booth. For this setting, use either the rotary  
dial or the small remote, but not both.

Large remote inside pedestal: this provides variable GB and controls lighting  
down the pedestal of the photo booth.  
For setting up and using the software, consult with the Shipping Confirmation  
email we sent out when your order shipped.
