RJ-45 cables and connectors are used throughout the world for both tele-
communications and computers, and are widely available at low cost. The
connectors are crimped on to the ends of the cable such that pin 1 at one
end is connected to pin 1 at the other end. Such a “straight-through” con-
nection is (counter-intuitively) made by introducing a 180
°
twist in the
cable between the two ends, as shown below.

Connecting the communication ports other than as
described in this manual may damage the AVP2 and the
associated components, and will void those products’
warranties.
These ports also provide for extensive home automation flexibility via the
PHAST™ protocols, should you be interested in integrating other brands of
products into the system in a more comprehensive control system. Your
dealer can assist you in taking advantage of these advanced features.
15 RS-232 PORT
The AVP2 also includes an RS-232 port, which may be used in conjunction
with external control systems such as Audioaccess, AMX, or Crestron. Your
dealer can assist you in taking advantage of these advanced features.
This RS-232 port may also be used to update the operating software of the
AVP2, so that your system will be able to handle new digital audio formats
as they are introduced. (Think of updating the software in the AVP2 as be-
ing like installing new software in your computer… only much less pain-
ful.) Once again, your dealer can assist you in taking advantage of these
advanced features, should the need arise.
The “pinout” connections used on the RJ-11 connector used for the RS-232
port is as follows:
RS-232 pin configuration:
pin 2 = Rx from PC
pin 3 = Tx to PC
pin 5 = ground
