3.4 Install the Wiring
IMPORTANT: Please read the wiring rules below before installing the wiring. If your com-
puter does not communicate with the network devices after installation and addressing,
re-read this section, as well as Section 4.2 on addressing rules.
3.4.1 Wiring Rules
• Connect each device to the network through its own cable in a Star Network. Do not con-
nect them in a serial fashion (as was done with the previous IQ current loop method).
• Make sure each device has its own Category 5 certified cable connecting it to a central
concentrator, most often a switch.
