VIANet Connection
The VIANet connection allows the HC6 and HC12 to receive VIANet commands from TS2
Touchpads (connected to PPVN Precision Panels); transmit source and system status to
the TS2s and to communicate with ELAN VIANet devices like the M86A and the C2
Communication Controller. See Figure 3-3.
Figure 3-3: VIANet Connections
This connection uses Cat5 terminated with the ELAN standard color code shown in Figure
3-4.
Figure 3-4: ELAN Standard Color Code
It is important to use the ELAN standard color code for VIANet connections. VIANet data
travels on conductors 3 and 4 and a twisted pair must be maintained for proper
functionality.
NOTE: The combined wire run TOTAL of all devices on VIANet can’t exceed 2000’ or
1000’ for any single run. Use of VIANet Repeaters is required for systems that exceed
these guidelines.
