WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

RJ-45 Connections

The CAT-5 T568A wiring stan- dard shown on the right is used for the RJ-45 terminations.

Keypad Wiring

For the UNO keypads, the following connections are used to terminate the CAT-5 wire to the 110 punchdown on the keypad:

CAT-5 WIRE COLOR TYPE

Brown/White . . . . . . . . . . . . . . +12V

•To determine the amount of CAT-5 wire required for the system installation, first decide how many keypads will be used, then determine the distance between each intend- ed keypad location to the intended CAV6.6 location. The maximum recommended wire run length is 250 feet for each UNO Keypad.

•Make sure that the entire wire path between keypads and CAV6.6 is clear and not obstructed by a floor ceiling joist, or masonry wall which can’t be drilled through.

•Confirm ahead of time that you can drill an outlet hole easily and in an unobtrusive spot to connect wires with the CAV6.6.

•Label wires with keypad and room location. This simplifies CAV6.6 hook-up once the key- pads and speakers are installed.

•If you plan to use an additional IR receiver with an UNO keypad, first determine the loca- tion of the IR receiver, then measure the dis- tance from the intended location to the UNO keypad location. Incorporating optional IR receivers will require additional wire. Consult the selected IR receiver model’s manual for the specific wire needs.

Speaker Wiring

•Standard 16-gauge 4-conductor stranded speaker wire can be run up to to 125 feet; 14-gauge wire can be run up to 250 feet.

•When running wire, pay particular attention to the following areas:

•Avoid locations concealing pipes, heating ducts and AC wiring in the general vicinity.

•Avoid running wires close to house electri- cal wiring for any distance. If you have to run them parallel, make sure to space the wires at least two feet from the AC line.
