User manual AMX VIEWSTAT INSTALLATION GUIDE

[. . . ] 1) operates similarly to a conventional thermostat but has the unique capability of being controlled, either locally or remotely from a NetLinx or Landmark control system. The ViewStat is compatible with any 24volt controlled HVAC system, as well as millivolt systems. This manual describes how the ViewStat connects to several different types. See the ViewStat Communicating Thermostat Instruction Manual (available online at www. amx. com) for details. [. . . ] 2 Installing the CAT5 Suppression Ferrite Connecting to a NetLinx Control System To connect a single VST to a NetLinx control system, use ICSNet cabling to connect the RJ-45 jack on the VST to any available ICSNet jack on the NetLinx Master. The maximum cabling distance between the VST and Master is 1, 000 ft. To connect multiple ViewStats to a NetLinx system, use a NetLinx Hub (NXC-NH) to add additional ICSNet ports to the system. Connect the RJ-45 jack on the VST to an available ICSNet jack.

The maximum cabling distance between the VST and Controller is 1, 000 ft. To connect multiple ViewStats to a Landmark system, use a Landmark Hub (PLHRPT) to add additional PhastLink ports to the system. Connect the RJ-45 jack on the VST to an available PhastLink jack. Connecting the ViewStat to the HVAC System Before connecting the VST to the HVAC system, install the 24 VAC Suppression Ferrite, to eliminate any potential noise problems. Installing the 24 VAC Suppression Ferrite Before connecting the 24 VAC power supply cable to the HVAC system, install the 24 VAC Suppression Ferrite (provided), as described below (no tools required - see FIG. 3): jumper from RC to RH Common (black) from 24 VAC HVAC System 1. Pass the 24VAC power cord through the ferrite bead. 2. Loop the cable around and pass it through the ferrite bead again. 3. Gently pull the cable to eliminate excess slack.
