3.4 Wiring VertX EVO
WARNING: VertX EVO V2000 is a NON-PoE device. DO NOT connect J1 (Ethernet port) to
a PoE capable port. This applies to both direct PoE Power Sourcing Equipment (Endspan
PSE) and PoE injector (Midspan PSE) equipment. Not all PSE's correctly detect Non-PoE-
capable devices, and such PSE's may not function as expected when connected to Non-
PoE equipment. If the only option is to connect the controller to a PoE enabled port,
disable power of the PoE port before connecting.
Note: Carefully peel the attached Warning Label from the bottom of the unit and leave the
label attached to the unit's cover for future reference.
CAUTION: Connectors on the VertX EVO devices are positioned to be mirror images and
are not interchangeable once the installation is complete. Therefore, you cannot unplug a
connector from one side and plug it into the corresponding connector on the other side.
Network Connection: Connect the VertX EVO V2000 to the network using a 1.
standard Cat5 network patch cable. Connect one end of the Cat5 network patch
cable to the J1 (RJ-45) connector on the V2000 and the other end to the network
connection point (network jack, hub, switch, or router) on your site.
Note: Two LED lights exist on the RJ-45 connector. The green LED denotes Ethernet
Activity and the yellow LED denotes speed. When the Yellow LED is on, it indicates
100 Mbits per second. Another LED in-board is a Duplex LED, indicating duplex
communications are available.
Power and Alarm input connections (All VertX EVO units): Connect power by 2.
providing appropriate DC input to the P7 connector. Appropriate DC input goes to
Pin 1 and ground to Pin 2. Batt Fail, AC Fail, and Tamper switch inputs are wired as
shown in the table. Connect the Bat Fail and AC Fail inputs to battery low/failure and
AC failure contacts provided on the power supply. Connect the Tamper input to a
tamper switch on the enclosure.
