Check Network Wiring
Use the Right
Wire In order to ensure optimum performance over the full range of your
installation topology, Crestron Certified Wire and only Crestron
Certified Wire may be used. Failure to do so may incur additional
charges if support is required to identify performance deficiencies
because of using improper wire.

Power CAUTION: Use only Crestron power supplies for Crestron
equipment. Failure to do so could cause equipment damage or void the
Crestron warranty.
CAUTION: Provide sufficient power to the system. Insufficient
power can lead to unpredictable results or damage to the equipment.
The EIG connector on the DM switcher is used to jumper in external
power. Additional power is rarely required; switchers provide enough
power for their maximum configuration of room controllers and
repeaters. Please use the DMNet Power Calculator to help calculate
how much power is needed for the system
(www.crestron.com/calculators).
