Wiring
Notes:
• Ensure that only one COM 2 is connected to each COM 1. If two or more are connected, the
network segment does not work.
• The wire length limit for RS-232 is 20 feet (6m) in conduit, in the same room. For systems using
modems, this is the maximum distance between the panel and the modem.

RS-232 Network wiring uses three (3) wires between each panel (see
Figure 27). The COM1 of each Unit is connected to the COM2 of the next
Unit. MR-2944 Annunciator Units are connected the same as the Control
Unit. Wiring is polarity sensitive.
