SV-COM-X83 Installation and Configuration
SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision AA 17-11
Use the other wire to connect SV-COM-T8 Pin 9 to SV-INTERCOM-2S Pin 1 (see
instructions below - Terminating Shielded Cables to Pin 1 of SV-INTERCOM-2S).
On the SV-COM-T8 end, continue the shield as far into the connector as possible until
you're forced to pare it back to access the two inner wires. Put some heat shrink tubing
over the shield to keep it electrically isolated - the shield at the SV-COM-T8 end of this
cable is not electrically connected at the SV-COM-T8.
On the SV-INTERCOM-2S end, prep the shield into a "pigtail" so that you can solder to it
(see below).
Terminating Shielded Cables to Pin 1 of SV-INTERCOM-2S
Four connections terminate into SV-INTERCOM-2S Pin 1:
o SV-COM-T8 Pin 1
o Shield of the cable from SV-COM-T8 Pins 1 and 2
o SV-COM-T8 Pin 9
o Shield of the cable from SV-COM-T8 Pins 23 and 9
Rather than trying to terminate these four connections directly to the SV-INTERCOM-2S
Pin 1, we suggest connecting a wire to Pin 1, then bond all five connections together.
One method is to tie-wrap the bundle of wires and shields together, twist the wires
together, and solder the five wires and shields. After the solder cools, use heat shrink
tubing to insulate the connection. The following figure depicts how dual SV-COM-T8s
are connected to an SV-INTERCOM-2S. Note that the additional connections between
the SV-INTERCOM-2S and other devices that it connects to are not shown. Note that
the associated SV-COM-PANELs are also not shown; there are no changes in the SV-
COM-PANEL to SV-COM-T8 wiring from the single SV-COM-T8 to SV-INTERCOM-2S
previously shown.
