1. Max! Cube
1.1. Intended use
The MAX! Cube provides a user-friendly means of
confi guring MAX! Components with the MAX! Software and the MAX! Portal. It can also be used to query the status of the
individual components.
As a LAN gateway, the device is thus the data interface of the system. Furthermore, it provides a storage location for all
confi guration data. Radio communication between MAX! Components is bi-directional. This ensures that the information
sent reaches the recipient.
With an existing Internet connection, there are various ways of controlling the system. The MAX! Cube can be accessed
using a browser via the Internet portal, using a smartphone application and with the local software.
Confi guration settings for all terminals are made via the user-friendly MAX! Software. Different settings can be made for
individual rooms. Settings (e.g. weekly profi les) are transmitted to the MAX! Radiator Thermostats in the system (so these
also function independently without the MAX! Cube).
The device may only be operated indoors and must be protected from the effects of damp and dust, as well as solar or
heat radiation. Using this device for any purpose other than that described in this operating manual does not fall within
the scope of intended use and shall invalidate any warranty or liability. This also applies to any conversion or modifi cation
work. This device is intended for private use only.For more information about the MAX! System and the available compo-
nents, please go to www.hama.com.

1.4. Teaching-in MAX! Components
In order to enable communication between MAX! Components,
the devices have to be taught-in to one another.
Devices are taught-in on the MAX! Cube with the user-friendly MAX! PC software.
