SS1 System Station to S128P Connections
The SS1 System Station allows many advanced features in an S128P system. Wireless VIA! Touch Panels can
communicate with the S128P and other sub-systems through RS-232 or IR. Connectivity between the SS1 and the
S128P is done through two cables (included with the SS1); a 15-pin cable for IR and RS-485, and a 9-pin cable
for RS-232. Connect these cables as shown below. Please consult the SS1 System Station Installation Manual for
important information regarding the use of this product.
VIA!®SC-4* to S128P Connections
When controlling a S128P with ELAN's VIA!SC-4 System Controller, use the 6-Pin DIN-to-9-Pin serial cable and
the male-to-male DB9 gender-changer that is included with the SC-4. Plug the 6-Pin DIN (round) connector into
the SC-4's ELAN RS-232 OUT port. Using the gender-changer, plug the other end of the serial cable into the ELAN
RS-232 IN port on the S128P. The SC-4 will always be connected to Chassis #1 in a multi-chassis system.
*Note: The SC-4 is a discontinued product.
