To get a control panel working with a specific router, configure the control panel to the same level as the router. Several panels can be configured to control the same router. The Triton panels can control 2 levels with breakaway function. If it is necessary to control more levels with breakaway an additional panel must be used. -

This means that the NCB OUT of the last unit must be connected to the NCB IN of the first unit in the NCB chain. To avoid problems with the control of Triton units the installer/user has to assure that the bus structure is installed according to this definition. - Page 14 Pay attention to the figure below, in order to achieve full controllability of all devices in the loop. • Triton - RCS Complete the Control loop, by connecting all Control bus connections to all Triton devices, before • powering up any Triton device.
