INSTALLATION SERIES
Australian Monitor
Remote control is achieved via the rear panel RJ45 (CAT5) socket. Connection is via CAT5
cable and a distance of up to 1000m is guaranteed.
A straight through wired Cat5 cable (not a crossover cable) should be used (wired pin1 to
pin1, pin2 to pin2 etc)
Connect to the ZM3R RJ45 socket on the back and to the zone remote RJ45 on
the rear of the ZM3.
Press the remote enable switch on the rear panel of the ZM3.
Now the ZM3R has control of the program sources and the front panel controls do not
effect the unit.

CAT5 CABLE
CAT5 TERMINATION
CAT5 cable is the blue cable commonly used for data installations (other colours do exist). It
consists of four twisted pairs of wires: this is why it is often referred to as UTP (Unshielded Twisted
Pair). The most readily available cable uses solid conductors, like telephone wire. Cable with
stranded conductors is available, and is more flexible.
Pre-wired CAT5 cable comes in two configuration standards, 568A and 568B. It is advisable to
carry a good pre-wired cable for fault-finding. Both configurations will work with the
DigiPageJr provided both ends have the same configuration. Be careful not to use a
crossover cable which has one configuration at one end and the other configuration at the
other end.
Ensure that the RJ45 connectors are suited to the cable used (solid or stranded) and that the
correct crimp tool is used.

Installation
NOTE: If installing and terminating CAT5 cable is new to you, please take note of the
various points that follow. As the CAT5 cabling for the DigiPageJr carries voltage,
damage could occur if your pin-pin connections are not made correctly.
NOTE: These are Ethernet connections. NOT
NOTE: CAT5 cable consists of four pairs of wires: it is not sufficient to simply wire the two
ends pin for pin, ignoring pairing.
