3.4 Networking Using Four-Channel Repeaters
1. For each Einstein equipped with a four-channel
repeater, run a short length of wire from Channel D
to an Echelon terminal on the Einstein processor
board (as shown in the diagram).
2. Run Echelon cable from channels A and B of the
repeater to all the Echelon devices associated with
the Einstein. Each length of wire extending from a
repeater channel must connect Echelon devices
together in a daisy chain with no splitting. Leave
Channel C of the repeater open for connecting to
other Einsteins.
You may use Channel D, which you connected to
the Einstein in step 1, to connect Echelon devices.
Simply run the wire from the second set of Echelon
terminals. Note that this becomes a “split” channel
whose daisy chain actually begins at the Einstein’s
Echelon terminals (i.e. you will have to terminate
on the Einstein processor board for this daisy
chain).
3. Use Channel C to connect all four-channel repeat-
ers together in a single daisy chain.
