V883 INSTALLATION MANUAL

Control Connections - VIA!NET

Use the VIA!NET ports when controlling the V883 with ELAN VIA! Touch Panels, VIA!SC-4 Serial Controller, VIA!2-SS1 System Station and other VIA!NET devices. Use of this method ensures highly reliable control signal integrity and removes the possibility of IR signal “collision” whereby simultaneous IR commands cancel each other. The VIA!NET ports on the V883 can be daisy-chained between chassis and other VIA!NET devices.

Use an ELAN C4545 RJ-45 to RJ-45 interconnect cable to make all VIA!NET con- nections. If the cable assembly is to be custom made, refer to the pin-out diagram below.
