The CATS-2 is designed to accept a remote contact closure for each video input. When

the desired contacts are closed by a button or relay, the appropriate picture is selected. A

master timer is then activated that can be adjusted to guarantee that the picture remains

on the screen for the desired hold time. An internal contact is also closed that can be

used to activate a VCR, a door chime or any controllable external device.

Each switcher should contain each of the following items:

·Instruction sheet

·Power Pack

Cable Requirements:

The cable run from the phone plate should not exceed 300 feet and it is recommended

that 24 GA wire or larger is used. Do not connect the wires for the alarm to any other

piece of equipment or voltage source as you may damage the inputs to the alarm circuitry.

If you provide the cable , it must have a reversal in wire. (Example).

If a RJ-12 6-4 cable and wall plate is used, the contact closure control for the VCR will be

disabled.

Note:

1) Some blocks are wired differently. It is important to follow the color code, not the screw

number on the block.

2) For RJ12, 6-4 there will be no white or blue wires for contact closure out.
