ViewStat Installation and Wiring

Connecting to a LandMark Control System

PhastLink cables are used to connect all PhastLink-compatible devices, including keypads, dimmers, J-box IR devices, amplifiers, audio switches, etc. The table below lists the RJ-45 pinout information.

PhastLink uses a standard 10Base-T connection (i.e. Category 5 wire and RJ-45 connectors). The wire should be connected in the standard manner. If a consistent color code is used, wiring problems will be minimized.

It is important that the correct pairing is observed. Transmit, Receive, and Mic need to be on twisted pairs. Splitting pairs (e.g., using a white/green wire with a blue/white wire for transmit) will result in increased crosswalk, and may result in bus failure or noise on the intercom.

Installing the Cat5 Suppression Ferrite

Before connecting the ICSNet cable, install the Cat5 Suppression Ferrite (provided), as described below (no tools required):

2.Insert the Cat5 cable.

3.Snap the enclosure shut with the cable inside, and you’re done.

Connecting to a NetLinx Control System

To connect a single ViewStat to a NetLinx control system, use ICSNet cabling to connect the

RJ-45 jack on the ViewStat to any available ICSNet jack on the NetLinx Master. The maximum cabling distance between the ViewStat and Master is 1,000 ft (304.8 m).

To connect multiple ViewStats to a NetLinx system, use a NetLinx Hub (NXC-NH) to add additional ICSNet ports to the system, connect the RJ-45 jack on the ViewStat to an available ICSNet jack on the Hub.
