2.3.3 Wayne CAT Communication
2.3.3.1 Wayne Direct CAT via the Allied Isolation Box
The NeXGen uses an RS485 port to communicate to the Wayne CATs. Up to 32 CATs
(see note below) may be connected to channel 8 of the controller.
Note: Up to 32 CATs may be connected to the NeXGen on channel 8. In DUKPT systems, a
DSM is used and therefore 32 CATs can be supported. If Master Key/ Session Key debit is
required, then only 29 CATs are supported because the MSM is set to respond to poll ID 30.
A plain junction box can be used in order to connect the CAT communication wires to the
RS485 wires that extend from the modular jack. In this configuration, up to 8 CATs can be
hard wired to each of the four RS485 channels.
