ViewStat Installation and Wiring

Connecting to a Landmark Control System

To connect a single ViewStat to a Landmark control system, use PhastLink cabling to connect the RJ-45 jack on the ViewStat to any available PhastLink jack on the Landmark Master (MCU). The maximum cabling distance between the ViewStat and MCU is 1,000 ft (304.8 m).

To connect multiple ViewStats to a Landmark system, use a Landmark Hub (PLH-RPT) to add additional PhastLink ports to the system, connect the RJ-45 jack on the ViewStat to an available PhastLink jack on the Hub.
