MAXIS INSTALLED - Montana Owners Club

Hemlockusa · 01-13-2007, 07:01 AM

My DW gave me this for Christmas. It is a wonderful piece of equipment that anyone of us could really enjoy. The MAXIS allow's you to activate up to SEVEN (7) functions remotely.
Now the real story. I could have installed this unit with the attached wiring diagrams however I have a FELLOW MOC MEMBER ""MUDCHIEF"" That does live nearby who volunteered to help me install the MAXIS with a few of ""HIS""" special modifications.
I want to say that MUDCHIEF stuck with me through thick and thin so to speak until I finally had it installed and working to spec's. MUDCHIEF AND MY DW were constantly on me to get out of bed and GET ER DONE. I think MUDCHIEF knew immediately that I was not a ELETRICAL WIRING GURU, HA HA. I have attached a few pictures. I am so LUCKY to have MOC Members MUDCHIEF, OZZ, STEVE close by. This Forum is the most wonderful place to meet GREAT FOLK'S. One of the BRANSON ATTENDEE'S will really be happy when they win the ZAXIS remote landing gear unit.

Safe Travels everyone John

Nice Present John! and you certainly got the right helper! I believe he is the pioneer developer for Maxxis

Hemlockusa, I enjoy remote things. Could you tell me more or direct me to an informative website?

Thanks

John, those 2 guys sitting at that table look like they were up to something. I was glad to be able to help you. I knew you could do it just wanted you to get it done while the weather was nice. Hard to beleive it was 62 on Thursday and 15 on Friday. Now you can start on some other Mod's. But wait until you get down to the RGV where it is warmer.

Phil, John is right you would like this unit. It can do a lot of things beside what they list on their web site. I did a post called Remote Control Montana. You can look at that and see some of the things that I have done with it. I plan to add a A/B switch so I can do even more functions.

Ozz, John did a good job. Even tho some of the pictures I sent him I had made changes to that weren't shown in the picture. The product that they make is great but you know me I have to make mod's to it.

Ozz · 01-14-2007, 03:29 AM

Even the best of products can stand a little 'tweaking' from us....whatever one would call 'us'.

Thanks for the info folks, I must check into this.

I Currently have only four (4) activities that are remotely controlled. If I were RichFaa I would have one controling my BLENDER. I am thinking of what would work and be good for our unit to make things easier. NO IT WILL NOT WALK THE DOG...DARN. MUDCHIEF has several more already controlled. one I want to add for sure is the fireplace. This MAXIS has such a potential. It can be configured to remotely control really anything with a switch. THINK ABOUT IT. I hope that someday it will be included as a feature in all MONTANA'S, and everyone will be able to enjoy it's great potential. Safe Travels John

How many functions in a 5'er need remote assistance? Maybe I'm missing something, but the remote control on the TV has already increased the size of my belly.
