1 OVERVIEW
Congratulations on your purchase of Salon Systems, Inc.’s T-Max® Series of tanning bed timers.
The T-Max® is designed for complete automation and control of your tanning equipment. It is
also an excellent manual backup system in case your computer fails. The T-Max® Mgr can be
used as a stand alone unit or can be controlled by a computer using many third party software
packages. Manual operation is accomplished via front panel controls.
Operation via front panel controls is accomplished by pressing the proper sequence of buttons.
There are eight LED displays, each showing the status of one bed. LED lights to the left show
which bank of eight beds are being controlled, beds 1-8, 9-16, 17-24 and so on. If the T-Max®
Mgr loses power, the T-Max® 3A’s can be configured to be stand alone timers. As long as the T-
Max® Mgr is active, only the Start/Stop and Clean Room features are available from the T-Max®
3A.
This manual should be used by a licensed electrician when installing your new system. Check for
compliance with local building codes.

5 MANUAL OPERATION
5.1 Description
The T-Max® Mgr has eight LED displays across the top. These displays show bed status, eight
beds at a time. Below each display are two push buttons: the Set and Start/Stop buttons. These
buttons control bed operation. On the lower left side of the T-Max® Mgr are eight LEDs aligned
vertically, with a push button labeled “Change Displayed Beds” at the bottom. Each LED
represents 8 beds. When the top LED is displayed, beds 1-8 are shown on the displays. When the
next LED is illuminated, beds 9-16 are displayed, and so on. Which ever bed is shown on the
display will be the bed controlled by the two push buttons below that display. Pressing the
“Change Displayed Beds” button changes which beds are displayed and controlled. (refer to
Figure E, Section 12.5).
On power up the T-Max® Mgr will scan the network to find all T-Max® 3As connected. Two
dashes on a display indicates that no T-Max® 3A was found at that address.

T-Max® Manager and T-Max® 1A User’s Guide Page 9
5.2 Initial Configuration
Note: If you are connected to a Computer and want to go to manual control, disconnect the
computer cable from the side of the T-Max® Mgr, then cycle power. If your T-Max® Mgr has the
Key Lock Option, make sure Security Switch Key is turned clockwise ¼ turn. If the T-Max® Mgr
is in the upright position, the key lock should be in the horizontal position. If you have already set
up the T-Max® Mgr and just want to start sessions manually, go to Section 5.3
5.2.1 Initial Setup Mode
Apply power to the T-Max® Mgr and wait until the T-Max® Mgr stops scanning. Press the
Start/Stop buttons under Displays 1 and 8 simultaneously until some or all of the displays change
values. Release the buttons. The display descriptions are as follows:
Display 1 = Delay (Section 5.2.2)
Display 2 = Auto Start (Section 5.2.3)
Display 3 = Maximum Bed Number (Section 5.2.4)
Display 4 = Display Mode (Section 5.2.5)
Displays 5-8 = Parameter values stored in the T-Max® 3As. (Section 5.2.6)
5.2.2 Display 1 - Delay
Below Display 1, press the Set button to set the delay time in minutes. The maximum delay time
that can be set is 10 minutes. If you want the session to start immediately, set Display 1 to 0. The
delay is for every bed connected to the T-Max® Series.
5.2.3 Display 2 - Auto Start
The Auto Start mode will allow you to determine what mode the T-Max® 3A will be in after the
delay time expires. Press the Set button to set the Auto Start.
0 - The session time will start immediately after the Delay time expires, but the bed will not
energize. The Start/Stop button on the T-Max® 3A must be pressed before bed will come on.
1 - The session time will start and the tanning bed will energize immediately after the delay
time expires.
2 - Infinite Delay. The Start/Stop button must be pressed on the T-Max® 3A to start the
session. The delay time set on Display 1 (or on a computer) will be ignored.
Note: This setting is for every bed in the salon. If the Start/Stop button is pressed on the T-Max®
3A before the delay time has expired, the session will start and the bed will energize. Pressing the
Start/Stop button on the T-Max® Mgr after the session has been sent to the T-Max® 3A in the
tanning room will NOT turn the bed on.
5.2.4 Display 3 - Maximum Bed Number
Press the Set button under Display 3 to set the maximum bed number. This number must be either
equal to or higher than the highest address that the T-Max® 3As are set to.

T-Max® Manager and T-Max® 1A User’s Guide Page 10
5.2.5 Display 4 - Display Mode
Display 4 allows the user to choose what will be displayed on the T-Max® Mgr after a session has
ended. Press the Set button to set the value to either a “1” or “0”.
1 - The session time that was previously entered will be displayed after the session has ended
and the clean room indication has been cleared. For example, if a session time of 20 minutes
was entered, after a session time has ended, a 20 will be displayed after the clean room
indication is cleared.
0 - A “0” will be displayed after a session has ended and the clean room indication has been
cleared.
5.2.6 Displays 5 through 8 - Sending and Receiving Parameters
Note: If you are using more than one T-Max® Mgr in a Master-Slave configuration, you can only
monitor and send parameters from the Master T-Max® Mgr.
Displays 5 through 8 can be used to get and send parameters (lamp hours, session counts,
etc.). Use Table 1 to determine which parameter you wish check or change.
Press the set button under Display 5 until the bed number that you want to observe or change is
shown in Display 5. Press the Set button under Display 6 until the parameter number you wish to
observe or change is displayed in Display 6.
5.2.6.1 Checking Parameters Stored in the T-Max® 3As
Press the Start/Stop button under Display 6. The values stores in the T-Max® 3A shown on
Display 5 for the Parameter shown on Display 6 will be displayed in Displays 7 and 8.
Pressing the Set button under the Display 5 will allow you observe the chosen parameter for
each bed.
Note: If the display shows EEEE, then either the parameter stored in the T-Max® 3A is higher
than 9999 or you are trying to get a parameter from a bed number you don’t have.
5.2.6.2 Changing Parameters Stored in the T-Max® 3As
1) Press the Start/Stop and Set buttons under Displays 7 and 8 to change the value. Pressing the
Set buttons will increment these values, pressing the Start/Stop buttons will decrement these
values.
Display 7 is the thousands and hundreds digits. Display 8 is the tens and ones digits. For
example, if you set Display 7 to 78, and Display 8 to 12, then the value sent will be 7812. If
the value you see is blank, 9, blank, 2, then the value is 902. A blank display = “0”.
The highest value that can be sent from the T-Max® Mgr is 9999. Using PC, some values can be
set as high as 65535 (see Table 1, Max #). Pressing the Start/Stop and Set buttons simultaneously
under Displays 7 and 8 will set Displays 7 and 8 to 0. If you want to clear a value, such as Bulb
Hours after you have changed the bulbs in your tanning bed, set Displays 7 and 8 to 0.
2) Press the Start/Stop button under Display 5 to send the new value to the selected timer.
3) To exit the Initial Setup Mode, press and release the Change Displayed Beds button.
