The ViewStat Communicating Thermostat (FIG. 1) operates similarly to a conventional
thermostat but has the unique capability of being controlled, either locally or remotely
from a NetLinx or Landmark control system. The ViewStat is compatible with any 24-
volt controlled HVAC system, as well as millivolt systems. This manual describes how
the ViewStat connects to several different types. See the ViewStat Communicating
Thermostat Instruction Manual (available online at www.amx.com) for details.

The ViewStat is designed to work with VST-TTM (Temperature) and VST-TRH
(Temperature and Humidity) support modules, and remote sensors.

Connecting the ViewStat to AMX Control Systems
The Viewstat (VST) has a single RJ-45 jack on the rear panel, and uses ICSNet
cabling to connect to NetLinx or Landmark control systems.
cabling to connect to NetLinx or Landmark control systems.
Note: The terms "PhastLink" and ICSNet" are essentially interchangeable within the
context of cabling/connectors. They both use a standard 10BaseT type connection (i.e.
Category 5 wire and RJ-45 connectors), and they share the same pinout information
for the RJ-45 jacks. Generally the term "PhastLink" is used when dealing with
Landmark, and "ICSNet" is used when describing NetLinx control systems.

PHASTLink cables follow the EIA/TIA 568A color code, and NetLinx cables follow the
EIA/TIA 568B color code. The wires should be connected in the standard manner

If standard EIA/TIA 568A/B color coding is followed, wiring problems will be minimized.
Note: It is important that the correct pairing is observed. Transmit, Receive, and
Mic need to be on twisted pairs. Splitting pairs (e.g., using a white/green wire with a
blue/white wire for transmit) will result in increased crosstalk, and may result in bus
failure or noise on the intercom.

Connecting to a NetLinx Control System
To connect a single VST to a NetLinx control system, use ICSNet cabling to connect
the RJ-45 jack on the VST to any available ICSNet jack on the NetLinx Master. The
maximum cabling distance between the VST and Master is 1,000 ft. (304.8 m).

maximum cabling distance between the VST and Master is 1,000 ft. (304.8 m).
To connect multiple ViewStats to a NetLinx system, use a NetLinx Hub (NXC-NH) to
add additional ICSNet ports to the system. Connect the RJ-45 jack on the VST to an
available ICSNet jack.
