Configuring the VTM/TVM Series with the RCU 1000 Remote
Control
For the following configurations, the interconnecting cables can be extended using
electronic distribution. There are two ways to configure the VTM/TVM Series with
the RCU 1000 remote control:
• One RCU 1000 connected to one VTM/TVM Series unit using the REMOTE port.
• One RCU 1000 connected to multiple VTM/TVM Series using a multidrop cabling
adaptor and straight through cable using RJ-11 connectors (not a standard
telephone wire) that connects to the REMOTE ports on the back of the VTM/TVM
Series units and to the TO MAIN UNIT connector on the back of the RCU. All
VTM/TVM Series units must have unique unit IDs. The unit ID is the
identification number of the VTM/TVM Series units, and can be set to any number
within a range of 1 to 99 in the COMMUNICATIONS menu. The unit IDs should
be different than the identification numbers of other units in the same system
configuration. The REMOTE port must be terminated on the last VTM/TVM
Series unit, as shown in Figure 2-6. The flat cable shown in Figure 2-6 is a
straight through cable. See the RCU 1000 Installation and Operation Handbook
for more information on the RCU 1000.
