Okay, this may seem obvious to others, but I may be too visual to understand the "simple" instructions...
Exactly *HOW* do you daisy-chain a row of devices on the data bus of the M1? The M1 installation manual has a handy dandy illustration FROM THE FRONT, but nothing that shows the actual wire connections.
In particular, the keypad has a wiring harness, so I can't really visualize how you would daisy-chain it in the middle of a run.
My specific situation:
I have 2 branches running from the main panel:
1) four-wire direct to a keypad (with termination on the keypad).
2) four-wire to a M1XRF2G (which I can't recall but assume has termination on the board).
So now I need to add in an M1XSP for thermostats. Is it really simply a 3-way splice of each wire? If so, does it matter how long a run I splice into the middle, as long as the total amount is less than the limit?
Or do I basically cut the existing wires, and insert both ends into the terminal block on the M1XSP?
Does it matter?
Thanks!
