Link In

The link from the transmitter to each receiver unit is made using a twisted pair cable, specified to Category 5 or higher.

When a single receiver is attached to a link cable, the maximum length of that link cable is 1000 feet (600 feet for EMS1000P models).

However, if further receivers are connected in cascade to the initial receiver (using the LINK OUT port – Emerge EMS1000MP-R models only), then the overall length of the link cables used must be reduced. For further information, please refer to the section Making Cascade Connections.

NOTE: Where possible, avoid laying the twisted pair link cable(s) alongside power cables.

1. Attach the connector of the link cable to the socket labeled LINK IN on the Emerge EMS receiver. There

should be a click when the cable is fully inserted and

locked in place.
