Location Requirements (continued)

Cable Distance Limits

Depending upon your location requirements, you may choose to have a long Ethernet cable run and a short four- wire cable run or vice-versa. The recommended cable limits are:

•Ethernet cable distance limit = 300 feet

•Four-wire cable distance limit = 1500 feet

Recommended Wireless Router and Protocol adapter Location

Note:Afirstfloorinstallationlocationisrecommendedtomaximizethewirelesssignalstrength.However,if an upstairs installation is the only option, for the best reception it is recommended that the ScreenLogic wireless router be located on the floor directly above where the Tablet or PDAwill be primarily used.

Advantages:

•Good wireless coverage to back of home and pool/spa area

•Minimal Protocol adapter cable wiring

Disadvantage:

•Requires Ethernet cable connection to existing wired or wireless router connected to DSL or Cable modem. Note: Only required if you plan to access the Internet. Use of the ScreenLogic interface does not require an Internet connection.

•Requires Serial cable run from Protocol adapter to Load Center

Note: For wireless Tablet and

PDA interfaces: If the Ethernet cable pull as shown is not possible or practical, you can use the Range Extender Kit (P/N 520561) which will transfer the wireless signal to the room in your home where the wireless Tablet and/or PDA are primarily used. For more information, refer to page 20 and 86.
