Location Requirements (continued)
Cable Distance Limits
Depending upon your location requirements, you may choose to have a long Ethernet cable run and a short four-
wire cable run or vice-versa. The recommended cable limits are:
• Ethernet cable distance limit = 300 feet
• Four-wire cable distance limit = 1500 feet
Recommended Wireless Router and Protocol adapter Location
Note: A first floor installation location is recommended to maximize the wireless signal strength. However, if
an upstairs installation is the only option, for the best reception it is recommended that the ScreenLogic
wireless router be located on the floor directly above where the Tablet or PDA will be primarily used.
Advantages:
• Good wireless coverage to back of home and pool/spa area
• Minimal Protocol adapter cable wiring
Disadvantage:
• Requires Ethernet cable connection to existing wired or wireless router connected to DSL or Cable modem.
Note: Only required if you plan to access the Internet. Use of the ScreenLogic interface does not require an
Internet connection.
• Requires Serial cable run from Protocol adapter to Load Center

Note: For wireless Tablet and
PDA interfaces: If the Ethernet
cable pull as shown is not
possible or practical, you can
use the Range Extender Kit
(P/N 520561) which will
transfer the wireless signal to
the room in your home where
the wireless Tablet and/or PDA
are primarily used. For more
information, refer to page 20
and 86.
