WIRING: 

 
CAT-5 CABLE: 

 

A CAT-5 cable comes with the kit to connect the VLC to one of the empty jacks on the VHX control box. This 
cable provides the ground connection for the VLC clock through the VHX control box ground. If a longer or shorter 
cable is desired, a standard CAT-5, CAT-5E or CAT-6 

PATCH

 cable of any length 

7 feet or shorter

 may be 

used. Do not use a cable longer than 7 feet 

or a “crossover” cable as these may cause improper operation or 

device damage. 

 

NOTE: Some VHX systems come with a VLC unit integrated into the kit. These systems may already have the 
CAT-5 connection made inside the system. Other systems may require a CAT-5 jumper to go from the VLC to a 
jack on another part of the VHX system. Check the VHX system install manual for more specific CAT-5 
connection instructions for these systems. 

 

BATTERY WIRE: 

 

A single RED wire harness with connector is provided to plug into the back of the VLC. This red wire should be 
connected to a circuit that has +12v at all times (battery connection). This provides the power for the VLC clock to 
operate and keep time when the key is turned off. A good place to make this connection is the same circuit that 
the VHX control box gets its constant power.
