Introduction
We thank you for purchasing the Coin timer Model 5500TX. This device will
allow you controlling multiple applications such as a campground shower, a
tennis court lighting*, a car-wash vacuum cleaner*, or any other device requir-
ing payment based on time.
The 5500TX is an enhanced version of our model 5500TS. The added fea-
tures are an LCD display and a multi-coin electronic acceptor allowing to use
any coins. The display also offers a full audit.
The housing of the 5500TX offers an added protection against vandalism
compaRed to the previous Model 5000. The coin box was designed so that
you do not need to remove the full face plate to access the money.
We believe this device will provide you with good service for many years to
come with a minimum of care. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to
contact us. Our service department is open from Monday to Friday, from 8AM
till 4:30PM (Eastern Standard Timer) or by email at support@sem.ca
A tennis court lighting, a car-wash vacuum cleaner, or any other high-
voltage devices require adding an external relay (not included) as the con-
tacts in the timer cannot withhold high voltage. The external relay is acti-
vated by the timer, which in turn activates the high-voltage device.

Installing your timer
Use the proper anchoring system depending the type of wall your have. It is
your responsibility to make sure nobody can rip the timer off the wall.
Make sure elec-
trical connec-
tions meet the
local electrical
code. If you are
not familiar with
electricity, do not
hesitate to con-
tact a certified
electrician to
avoid electrical
shocks and dam-
ages to the
timer.

Description of the 5500TX circuit
The circuit of the 5500TX is located in the top right side of the internal housing
and divides in two sections.
1. Connection for the SLB Module (Switch, Light, Beeper) 4 wires.
2. Connection for the mechanical coin acceptor.
3. Connection for the electronic coin acceptor (MDB).
4. Micro-chip containing the entire memory (parameters and audit).
5. Connection for auxiliary terminal block (6 screws).
6. Connection for main terminal block (12 screws).
7. Location of Jumper JP1 (absent on the image).
8. MCU red flashing LED.
9. Intensity adjustment for Blue display.
10. Connection for portable printer with proper adapter.
11. Connection for blue LCD display.
12. Fuse 2A 250 volts 2cm (not visible) on the main circuit.
13. Extension board piggybacked on the main circuit.

Description of the main and auxiliary terminal blocks
There are two terminal blocks on the circuit: one horizontal 12-screw and one
vertical 6-screw. Both can be removed from the circuit. They may be hard to
remove and that is normal as we do not want them to disconnect themselves
under the effect of their own weight.
There is no indication on the block itself. Therefore, the image below will
serve you as reference. On the big block, number 1 is on the left. The big
block has 12 screws.

11. Accept Line Switch in your device (if applicable).
12. Ground. Jumped to 11 if there is no Accept Line Switch in your machine
as visible on the image.
On the small block, number 1 is a the bottom. The small block has 6 screws.

Typical wiring for a campground shower
This diagram shows the timer with an electronic multiple-coin acceptor and the
SLB Module (Switch, Light, Beeper). The timer controls a water valve in a
campground shower. The payment peripherals could be coins only, coins &
bills, or coins, bills & credit card. The type of peripheral will not affect the wir-
ing. There is also a small auxiliary output for an optional exhaust fan. Pins 12
& 11 are linked as there is no Accept Line Switch.

Programming your timer
The 5500TX timer is equipped with an LCD display allowing you to navigate
easily in the programming. The four buttons on the circuit are:
Black To scroll all the menus.
Green To access the menu visible on the display.
Red To modify the current setting or increase a number.
Blue To modify the current setting or decrease a number.
Operator Mode
There are five menus accessible to any person opening the timer.
Audit Gives you the accounting information
Currency setting Allows you to decide which money to accept
Session length Defines the length of the time session
Session rate Defines the cost of the timer session
Session mode Defines timing style
Technician Mode
There are two menus accessible in a hidden access.
System setting Programming the secondary parameters
Test Mode Not available at the time of printing

Retrieving the accounting information
The X25TX circuit of the Model 5500TX offers you a full accounting descrip-
tion on sales and the money accepted. Press the Black button once. When
AUDIT is visible on the display, press on the Green button. Then press on the
Black button to scroll through the information (see flow chart below). The
quantity of information available varies depending the payment peripherals
attached to the X25TX controller. As an example, if you have a coin changer,
you will then see the coin tube inventory. A bill acceptor will also bring you
different information the same if a card reader is attached.
Many counters are double. In such a case, one can be erased, the other no.
The abbreviation Cumul: indicates a cumulative non-erasable counter.
Note the last line of the display indicates you what button to use and the ac-
tion resulting of it.

Programming your timer
There are two sections for programming your timer:
Operator Mode
Technician Mode
The Operator Mode offers the accounting information as seen previously, the
settings for the currency to accept, the time a session lasts, the rate of that
time sessions, and finally the session style.
As for the Technician Mode, it allows programming parameters that are more
technical and should be access by a competent person. As a matter of fact,
accessing this section cannot be accidental. If you access this section it is
because you want to access it.
You will find on the right the flow chart allowing you to navigate through the
Operator Mode. In the following pages are the explanation of each parame-
ters and the possible choices available to you.
