The RFG has two RJ-45 connections for wiring into the system. The connection used depends
on the mode and overall system design.
A MAsteR RFG connected to A niles netwoRk-BAsed MultiZone ReceiveR:
An RFG with dipswitches set for Master Base mode must be connected directly to the
MultiZone receiver using CAT-5 cable as detailed in Figure 2 . No power supply is needed.
A master RFG can be wired with repeater RFGs by wiring the CAT-5 cable from the MultiZone
Receiver’s Communications port to the System connection of the first RFG, and then from the first
RFG’s Keypad connection port to the System connection of the next RFG. Two RFGs can be daisy
chained to the receiver without an additional power supply. If three RFGs are daisy chained, a Niles
power supply (FG01035) must be connected to an RFG in the chain. If more RFGs are required, note
that the Niles power supply can supply power to up to three adjacent RFGs in the chain.
