VAM (VISTA Automation Module) - Installation & Setup Guide
Introduction
VISTA Automation Module (herein referred to as "VAM") combines home automation and home security and is intended
for use with compatible VISTA
technology allowing VISTA installations to support Z-Wave devices.
The VISTA Automation Module also supports Remote Services for controlling Z-Wave devices and Scenes remotely from
an associated Total Connect™ account.
VAM is controlled using a web browser on a Wi-Fi enabled smart device such as a Tablet PC, laptop, Smartphone, etc.
DISPLAY NOTE: For optimum viewing of the screens and menus, the tablet's font size setting may need to be adjusted.
Make Wiring Connections
Connect VAM to the control panel's keypad data (ECP)
terminals using a standard 4-wire keypad connector harness.
VAM
REFER TO THE CONTROL PANEL'S INSTRUCTIONS
FOR MAXIMUM WIRE LENGTHS.
Wire Connections to the Control Panel
Verify that VAM and other connected devices do not exceed the
control's Aux Power output capability. If it does, use a
supplementary power supply as shown.
IMPORTANT: When VAM is powered from an auxiliary power
supply, always apply power to the control panel first and then
VAM. Failure to observe this sequence results in improper
operation of VAM and may result in an ECP Error indication.
