S86A
VIA! Touch Panel Connections
The S86A is designed to work flawlessly with ELAN VIA! Touch Panels. VIA! Touch Panels require ELAN 16 Volt
DC power supplies. Use the PWR10 16V/10A power supply to power up to ten VIA! Touch Panels. Use the PWR4
16V/4A power supply to power up to 4 VIA! Touch Panels. Use the PWR1 16V/1.5A power supply to power a single
touch panel.
When using a VIA! Valet 10.0 Tabletop/Under-Cabinet Color Touch Panel, a PVIA1 Valet Wall Plate must be used.
One PVIA Wall Plate is included with each VIA! Valet. The installer has the option of using the included PVIA1 power
supply, or one of the other 16V power supplies to provide power to the Valet.
VIA! Touch Panels punch-down to the rear of the SPP at two locations, depending on system configuration. These
locations are labelled “ZXA 16V VIA!/OLÉ” and “ZXB 16V/12V VIA!/OLÉ” where “X” corresponds to the zone that the
touch panel(s) will control. Two touch panels can connect to each punch-down location for each zone. If using more
than 2 touch panelsper location, make connections off of the SPP and use jumper wires to punch-down to the cor-
rect location.
Figure 3-4
shows the correct wiring for one touch panel in Zone 1 connected to the “A” location and
utilizing 16VDC power from the PWR1, PWR4, or PWR10 power supply connected to the front of the SPP.
