Rough-In Considerations
• Keep all Expansion Hub wiring away from 120/240V wires, security, dimmers, and other control wiring.
• Allow enough length on all wires to reach an Expansion Hub located ten feet away from the wall port.
• Label all CAT-5 wiring: Zone 5, Zone 6, Zone 7, and Zone 8.
• DO NOT confuse the Zone CAT-5 wires with the Door Station CAT-5 wires.
• Knot or fasten all wires in some manner to prevent them from slipping out through the back of the electrical box
located at the wall port.
Wiring Considerations
• Attach the Expansion Hub cable from the Central Controller to the Expansion Hub.
• Attach the 16-gauge, 2-conductor power wiring to the removable power connector as indicated on the connector
label and as shown in the wiring connection detail.
• Attach the CAT-5 wires to the removable zone connectors as indicated on the connector label and as shown in
the wiring connection detail.
• DO NOT confuse the Zone CAT-5 wires with the Door Station CAT-5 wires.
Wiring the Expansion Hub
Figure 12—The wiring hookups for the backside connectors of the Expansion Hub (XDM46EH).
Note: If the Expansion Hub is accidentally turned off, both the Expansion Hub and
Central Controller will need to be powered down. Then power up both, the
Expansion Hub and Central Controller, effectively rebooting the system.
