Scenario 2 - Single Bed wired to T-Max® 3A
In single sunbed installations, the T-Max® 1A and 3A can offer the
same control as the T-Max® Manager, eliminating the need for a
Manager. If you’re using a 1A in this manner, it must have a chip
labelled “master” installed on its circuit board. The remote control
bypass plug must not be used in this configuration. The 3A may be
used as a “master” with no modification.
After you have set the T-Max® 1A’s, or 3A’s, address to “0” (refer to
your T-Max® user’s guide) and the sunbed’s address to “1”, simply
connect the RJ-22 modular cables,
described in the T-Max® user’s guide,
directly into either of the smaller ports
located on the back of the sunbed and
either port on the back of the T-Max®
1A or 3A.
The unit is shipped with a Remote
Control Bypass Plug installed. Your
sunbed will not operate without either
the bypass plug or a remote system
connected. If remote operation is
desired, see
Remote Connections

Remote Connections
Your sunbed incorporates advanced circuitry allowing it to connect
and communicate with most remote control systems. If a remote sys-
tem is to be used, first determine whether the remote system is a T-
Max® System or a standard remote system operating with a control
relay. Follow the appropriate instructions for your system type.
T-Max® Products
The T-Max® remote systems offer the ultimate in sunbed control, while
allowing the tanner easy straightforward operation. Your sunbed is con-
figured to directly connect to this system, including the new wireless
remote system. The circuitry inside your sunbed eliminates the need for
the T-Max® 1A or 3A when connecting to the T-Max® Manager series.
Your sunbed supports the auto addressing feature of the latest T-Max®
Manager models and the following parameters: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15 and
23. See your T-Max® manual for descriptions of these parameters and
how they function.
T-Max® Wireless Remote System
The T-Max® AP-900 eliminates wires in your salon, allowing easy
setup without hiring an electrician to run wires. It also protects your
investment from damage by isolating each unit from one another. Your
sunbed arrives “wireless ready”, which means it connects directly to
the T-Max® wireless system.
The T-Max® wireless system is available in two configurations: AP-900
Retail and AP-900 OEM. The Retail version contains a power adapter
which plugs into a standard 110V outlet. The OEM version gets power
from the tanning bed through the same RJ-11 cable it uses to commu-
nicate communicate, eliminating the need for an outlet. Tanning beds
labelled “wireless ready” use the AP-900 OEM.
Remote System Hook-up Scenarios
Follow the diagrams at right and on the next page to see the many dif-
ferent scenarios for hooking up your salon. If you need further assis-
tance, call T-Max® directly at
(417) 338-5101
.
The remote connection is not designed to supply or accept high
voltage, nor can it provide power to an external timer. The
sunbed’s remote interface circuitry operates on 5 volts, attempting
to connect it to any higher voltages will damage the sunbed as
well as void your warranty.
CAUTION

questions:

NOTE: A T-Max® 1A with a
“master” chip can be substituted
for a 3A in

Scenario 1 - T-Max® Manager Series with wires
This system is ideal for multiple sunbed installations. Simply connect
the RJ-22 modular cable(s), described in the T-Max® Manager manu-
al, into the remote port(s) located on the back of your sunbed and fol-
low the instructions that came with your remote system. If you have
an older T-Max® Manager that doesn’t support auto addressing, set the
address of each sunbed manually as described in
Setting the address
manually
. You can place your sunbed at any location in the series.
