ViewStat Installation and Wiring
11 ViewStat Communicating Thermostat
9. Connect the Cat-5 RJ-45 connector on the MiniVerter to the Control System (Master or ICSNet Hub).
Wiring the VST-TSTAT to a VST-DIST Distribution Panel
The optional VST-DIST Distribution Panel (not included) connects to up to eight VST-TSTAT thermostats,
providing a convenient and effective method of wiring multiple thermostats to the control system's RS422
serial interface port.
The VST-DIST provides one RS422 interface to the control system and eight RS422 interfaces for the
thermostats.
Since the VST-DIST provides an RS422 interface to the control system, a MiniVerter (VST-MVRT)
is not required for communication.
The VST-DIST is intended for use with the VST-TSTAT, and is not intended for use with the VST,
which includes a MiniVerter.
