MAKING CONNECTIONS
RNET Link In and Link Out - Multiple Controllers
The RNET Link In and Link Out is used to con-
nect two or more (up to 6) CAV6.6 or CAM6.6
controllers. The connection is made using a
CAT-5 patch cable from the Link Out of the mas-
ter controller and into the Link In of the next
controller. Along with RNET data signals, the
RNET Link In and Link Out jack passes the six
source IR signals. The CAT-5 patch cable should
not exceed 18 inches in length to avoid potential
cross-talk between the source-specific IR repeat-
ing signal lines. These are only for source-specif-
ic IR remote repeating, not codes initiated from
the controller's internal IR library.

Note: If two or more CAV6.6 controllers will be
connected using the RNET Link In and Link Out
ports, each controller must have a unique
Controller ID (see Controller Setup - Flow
Chart on page 73) prior to being connected
through the RNET ports. The Controller ID
assignment must be performed during the
Controller Setup section of the Installation menu.
Controller #1 is always the LAST controller
to be powered on in a multi-controller
system.
