Increasing Wire Runs Beyond the 200 Foot Maximum
If a VIA! Touch Panel must be mounted further than 200 feet from the head
end, it is possible to use a PVIA Wall Plate (typically a PVIA1) to power the
unit locally (within 110 feet). The diagrams in this section show specific wir-
ing schemes for Stand-Alone systems and each ELAN Multi-Room System.
Alternatively, a 2-conductor, 18AWG wire may be used to connect to the
External Power Port for wire runs longer than 200 feet. Please see
Using the
External Power Connector
on p. 35 for details.
Stand-Alone
Use local PVIA1s for connecting VIA!s to an amplified IR Connection Block
to make a large Stand-Alone system, as shown in
Figure 3.23
