The CLIQ.host can be set on a rack shelf, or located in any
room near your devices.
Connecting devices to the CLIQ.host
After placing your CLIQ.host, make the connections to your
other devices. Figures 1 and 2 identify the LEDs and ports on
the front and rear of the CLIQ.host. Refer to the documentation
that came with each of your other devices for detailed
information about connecting those devices to the CLIQ.host.
To connect the CLIQ.host:
1. Connect your serial devices (optional) to either of the two
RS-232 ports using using an RJ12 to RS-232 cable, or an
RJ12 to DB9 null modem cable (included). See Figure 2,
item 1. For RJ12 pinouts, see Figure 3.
2. Connect your IR devices (optional) to the 12-pin terminal
connector (included), and then insert the connector into
the port labeled “IR Outputs.” See Figure 2, item 2.
If your IR device comes with a 3.5 mm connector, you will
need to cut and strip the wires before connecting it to the
terminal connector.
Note:
When connecting an IR emitter (included), attach
the striped wire to positive (+) and the black wire to
negative (-).
3. Connect a CS-BR-1 Streams Audio Bridge (optional) to a
USB port on the CLIQ.host. See Figure 2, item 3.
Note:
The USB connection allows the CS-BR-1 to encode
up to three simultaneous audio streams onto the CobraNet
network.
4. Connect your digital I/O devices (optional) to the 8-pin
terminal connector, and then insert the terminal connector
into the port labeled “I/O.” See Figure 2, item 4.
5. When connecting devices, wire it such that ports 1 and 2
share the same 12 VDC power and ground and ports 3
and 4 share the same power and ground.
6. Use an Ethernet cable (not included) to connect your
CobraNet switch to the port labeled “CobraNet.” See
Figure 2, item 5.
