Introduction Box contents Important: The serial port pinout follows the EIA/TIA-561 serial wiring standard. Standard Cat5/Cat6 Ethernet cabling (EIA/TIA-568) would result in split D+ and D- data pairs, causing reduced performance in RS-485/RS-422 applications. Use the wiring shown in the diagrams below. Network connection used for configuration and device control. Supports PoE. Miscellaneous 32˚ - 104˚ F (0˚ - 40˚ C) After you install and configure the controller with other Control4 devices, your customers can control their system using the Control4 apps, system remote controls, touch screens, or other Control4-supported interface devices (sold separately). Connecting the serial port (optional) B Z-Wave port—Removable plastic cover on top of the controller with a Z-Wave port underneath for a Control4 Z-Wave module. • Ethernet—To connect using an Ethernet connection, plug the data cable from the home network connection into the controller’s RJ-45 port (labeled “Ethernet”) and the network port on the wall or at the network switch. • WiFi—To connect using WiFi, first connect the unit to Ethernet, attach the WiFi antenna to the controller, and then use Composer Pro System Manager to reconfigure the unit for WiFi. Pin 8 DATA- RS-422 pinout ZIGBEE ETHERNET 2 Attach serial devices as described in “Connecting the serial port.” Serial port is only used for controlling external devices, the controller must be connected over Ethernet or WiFi to set up the Control4 programming.
