CP-15 Instruction Manual
Linking Multiple Panels
CP-15 Remote Panels can be linked together in a daisy chain to create multiple control points for a
single system.
Note: If any of the linked CP-15 remote panels were not part of the original system, the current
configuration file must be uploaded to the remote; for instructions, see page 26.
Cable Requirements
Two-conductor, 20 AWG, 7/28 strand cable with a drain wire or shield, such as Alpha 2412C
(customer supplied)
Total distance of the cable runs cannot exceed 1,000 ft. (304.8 m)
Power Requirements
+24 volt DC with at least 600 mA per panel
Important: Always use a UL approved power source. Be sure to check the power source
documentation for information specific to that power source.
The instructions below are for linking CP-15 Remote Panels using individual AMX AutoPatch wall
transformers for power. If using a different transformer or a centralized power source, note the
acceptable power requirements (see above) and see the transformer or power source documentation for
wiring information. For assistance with other wiring, contact technical support (for contact information,
see page 34).
To link CP-15 Remote Panels to each other:
1.
Connect the first panel to the AMX AutoPatch Router using one of the Comm Links (for
instructions, see page 28).
2. Attach an XNNet link cable to the other Comm Link on the first panel (follow the same procedure
used when connecting to the AMX AutoPatch Router).
3. Attach the other end of the XNNet link cable to a Comm Link on the next panel.
4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for any additional panels to be linked.
