E L A N H O M E S Y S T E M S ELAN S8 Multi-Room A/V Controller ELAN's SPP (System Precision Panel) is designed to work with any S Series Multi-Room controller. Figure 2.7 shows ten VIA! Touch Panels connected to a System8 (S8.6AV or S8.6P) Multi-Room A/V Controller using an SPP. -
Page 11: Elan S6 Integrated Multi-Room Controller
Use a PVIA Wall Plate appropriate for the number of VIA!s to be installed or an SPP System Precision Panel. Figure 2.4 shows four VIA!4.0-EM's and a PVIA4 configured for use with an ELAN S6. Note: The SPP can be used with ANY ELAN S Series Multi-Room Controller. -

Page 20: Installation
Installation ELAN Precision Panels and Wall Plates VIA! Touch Panels require an ELAN Precision Panel or Wall Plate to function properly. The specific application will determine the Precision Panel or Wall Plate needed. Each of these panels provides a power supply of the correct voltage (+16VDC) and amperage for the application being covered. - Page 21 The SPP is designed to accomodate all connectivity required for S6, S8 and S12 installations, including VIA! Touch Panels and Olé™ Touchpads. Each SPP provides connections for ELAN systems of up to eight zones. A sepa- rate power supply must be used when connecting VIA! Touch Panels to an ELAN System Controller.
