Interface Module Crestron TPS-6X-IMCW

NOTE: All Crestron certified Cresnet wiring must consist of two

twisted pairs. One twisted pair is the +24V conductor and the GND

conductor and the other twisted pair is the Y conductor and the Z

conductor.

Strip and Tin

Wire

When daisy-chaining Cresnet units, strip the ends of the wires carefully

to avoid nicking the conductors. Twist together the ends of the wires that

share a pin on the network connector and tin the twisted connection.

Apply solder only to the ends of the twisted wires. Avoid tinning too far

up the wires or the end becomes brittle. Insert the tinned connection into

the Cresnet connector and tighten the retaining screw. Repeat the

procedure for the other three conductors.

Add Hubs

For larger networks (i.e., greater than 28 network devices), it may

become necessary to add a Cresnet Hub/Repeater (CNXHUB) to

maintain signal quality throughout the network. Also, for networks with

lengthy cable runs it may be necessary to add a Hub/Repeater after only

20 devices.
