ELAN HOME SYSTEMS TS7 INSTALLATION MANUAL Chapter 2: System Design and Installation Planning Before installing the TS7, it is essential to have a detailed and accurate system design. Talk with the homeowner to make sure all expectations and design goals are explored. The first step to a good design is to map the system. It is advisable to mark up a copy of the house floor plan with speaker, touchpad, touchscreen, volume control, and equipment locations etc.
ELAN HOME SYSTEMS TS7 INSTALLATION MANUAL Installation The TS7 is designed to mount into a TS7BKT rough in bracket. The TS7BB back box can be used in conjunction with the TS7BKT in installations where a back box is desired. It can also be retrofitted into existing construction. See the TS7BKT and TS7BB documentation for additional information. When installing the TS7 in a retrofit application, the cutout dimensions are: 7.84” W X 4.46” H.
TS7 INSTALLATION MANUAL ELAN HOME SYSTEMS Rough-In Roughing-in the TS7 requires careful attention to the design plan made previously. See System Design & Applications for a list of things to factor in to specific mounting locations before deciding exactly where to place the unit. In order to avoid Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI), do not mount touchscreens close to light dimmers. Leave at least one stud-bay open between touchscreens and dimmers (leave more space if multiple dimmers are present).
TS7 INSTALLATION MANUAL ELAN HOME SYSTEMS Chapter 3: System Connections TS7 to PPSP Connections TS7 connection to any of the ELAN Home Controllers (HC12, HC6, etc.) is accomplished using Ethernet connections. A single Cat5 connects the TS7 to the network. 16 AWG 2 conductor connects to the PPSP Power Precision Panel. Each PPSP will accommodate connections for up to eight TS7s. The TS7s are powered by a 16V power supply connected to the PPSP. Each PPSP requires its own 16V power supply.
ELAN HOME SYSTEMS TS7 INSTALLATION MANUAL Chapter 4: Setup and Programming The TS7 is automatically added to the system when it is powered up and the Ethernet connection is made. It will automatically import the DEFAULT touchscreen settings from the ELAN configuration software.
