2 Installation Prepare the DIN-CONNECT for 1 connection by unscrewing and removing the cover from the base. Punch down up to two CAT cables 2 into the Krone connector. Ensure that the colours on the cables match the print on the circuit board. Terminate the DIN-CONNECT as 3 required. For information on setting the termination, see 3.0 Terminating the DIN-CONNECT . UNTERM STAR TERM Connect the RJ45 cable between the 4 DIN-CONNECT and the DIN-LINK. Once all cables are fitted, use the 5 cable ties provided to secure them to the base via the cable restraining points. Replace the cover of the DIN-CONNECT and screw on the lid.

3 Terminating the DIN-CONNECT The DIN-CONNECT must be terminated correctly, otherwise the wired system will not function. The termination requirements depend on the nature of the installation and the position of the DIN-CONNECT within the system. No TERM - Both Jumpers removed When the DIN-CONNECT is not at the end of line. This is usually identifiable by two cables being punched down to the DIN-CONNECT. TERM - Jumper fitted across 1+2 & 4+5 When the DIN-CONNECT is the end of line in a radial configuration. STAR TERM - Jumper fitted across 2+3 & 5+6 When the DIN-CONNECT is end of line in a STAR wire configuration. 4 Troubleshooting the Rako Wired Network If any issues are detected on the connected devices on power up, the onboard LEDS provide fault codes. For more information and further diagnostic information, refer to Wired System Diagnostics. DIN-LINK Instruction Manual | Page 5 Manual Version 1.0.1

5 Wiring Examples 5.1 Radial Wired System Connection & Termination Rules: End-of-Line Termination: The final device on each end of the radial must be set to the TERM position. Intermediate Devices: All other devices on the radial must be set to UN TERM. DIN-LINK Instruction Manual | Page 6 Manual Version 1.0.1
Page 7
5.2 STAR Wired System Connection & Termination Rules: One CAT Cable Per RAK-STAR Punchdown : Each RAK-STAR punchdown connector must have only one cable. Doubling up cables will lead to system malfunctions. End-of-Line Termination: The final device on each leg of the RAK-STAR must be set to the STAR termination position. Intermediate Devices: All other devices on a leg (between the RAK-STAR and the end-of-line device) must be set to UN TERM. DIN-LINK Instruction Manual | Page 7 Manual Version 1.0.1
