S128P
INSTALLATION MANUAL

Sense Input Connections

The Sense Trigger Inputs of the S128P are primarily for use with VIA! Touch Panels and Olé Touchpads. An
ELAN™SENSE Sensor can be connected that will cause VIA! Touch Panels and Olé Touchpads to execute IR or
serial commands. Use VIA!TOOLS or ELANTOOLS setup software to program Trigger Input functionality. Wiring the
Sense Inputs consists of punching down Voltage (V), Sense (S), and Ground (G) as shown in Figure 3-11.
ELAN™SENSE Sensors provide for a multitude of automation requirements:
• Audio Sensor: Detects line-level audio utilizing an RCA adaptor.
• Video Sensor: Detects Composite video utilizing an RCA adaptor.
• Light/LED Sensor: Detects ambient light or multi-color LEDs.
• Contact Closure Sensor: Detects closed-contact ON/OFF status.
• Current/Magnetic Sensor: Detects electrical current through power cords or
magnetic flyback.
• Voltage Sensor: Detects 3-24 Volts AC or DC. Doorbell Sensor: Detects multiple
doorbell signals for advanced switching functionality.

Programmable Trigger Connections

Devices that are remotely located can utilize the SPP's Triggers Connections in order to receive signals based
on zone activation or system activation. The Programmable Trigger outputs can be controlled using IR or Serial
Commands. Examples include remotely located amplifiers and/or power controllers.
