Introduction
The VIA!4.0 Color LCD Touch panel is an intelligent, affordable
solution for controlling audio, video, and automation equipment in
a multi-room environment or as a stand-alone controller (a Home
Theater, for example). With IR control, RS-232 control, and full-
motion video display, the VIA!4.0 has all of the features that make
ELAN’s award-winning VIA!64 and VIA!Valet Touch Panel the most
successful products in their category
Touch Screen Technology
The VIA!4.0 utilizes a polyester plastic film suspended over a glass
panel, which is then adhered to the front of a color LCD (liquid crys-
tal display) screen. Depressing the polyester film with a finger allows
the film to touch the glass panel underneath, generating a location
signal that is read by the electronics. The four inch diagonal color
LCD display is an active matrix TFT Liquid Crystal Display. Please
use fingers only when operating this unit. Do not use pens, pencils,
or styluses as these may damage the polyester film.
Features
• 4 Inch Color Active Matrix TFT Liquid Crystal Display
• Full Touchscreen Capabilities
• IR and RS-232 Control Options
• Full-Motion Color Video Capabilities
• Easy, Powerful VIA!®Tools Programming
• Affordable!

ELAN HOME SYSTEMS INSTALLATION MANUAL VIA!4.0
System Design & Applications
Planning
Before installing the VIA!4.0, it is essential to have a detailed and
accurate system design. Talk with the homeowner to make sure all
expectations and design goals are explored. The first step to a good
design is to map the system. It is advisable to mark up a copy of the
house floor plan with speaker, keypad, touch panel, volume control,
and equipment locations etc. Make sure that all locations are decid-
ed upon before pre-wiring commences so that all necessary wiring
and installation hardware is in place.
It is essential that ALL system components are accounted for prior
to the pre-wire stage. After establishing design goals with the home-
owner, make a detailed list of all components. Include source equip-
ment, keypads, touch panels, volume controls, amplifiers, communi-
cations gear, etc. Gather up any IR remote controls that may be
necessary for final programming, or ensure that the IR codes for all
equipment to be installed is available in the VIA!TOOLS IR Library.
When planning specific in-wall installation locations for LCD
Touch Panels, please keep the following tips in mind:
• When properly installed, nothing should be applying contact
pressure to the touch panel except for the operator’s finger.
If something is touching the touch screen window a false
signal can be generated, causing the touch panel not to
respond correctly.
• Avoid installation in direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light
(such as grow lamps for plants). This can degrade and discol-
or the polyester film.
• Avoid installation over heat generating devices and/or in moist
areas where condensation can form on the polyester film.
Both heat and condensed moisture can affect touch screen
performance.
• Avoid installation next to thermostats. The touch screen gener-
ates heat that can affect thermostat control and readings.
• Avoid applying any foreign objects, such as adhesive labels,
glue, etc. on the touch screen’s polyester film. This can
release chemicals that can discolor the clear film.
• The touch panel/LCD assembly should not be mounted near
electronics that emit radio frequencies or electromagnetic
interference (such as CRT monitors, light dimmers, and some
power supplies).

System Design & Applications - Planning (cont’d)
• Do not mount the VIA!4.0 outdoors or in areas exceeding its
operating temperature range of -10°F to +115°F. If the LCD
display is over-heated or its temperature reduced below its
recommended minimum, the liquid crystal polymer can be
damaged and the display image may not recover.
Mounting Height
For optimal viewing, the VIA!4.0 should be installed 56” to 60” from
the floor to the bottom of the frame when mounted in a wall. In
custom applications, factor in the viewing angles shown below and
make sure that the graphics and video remain visible in the prospec-
tive viewing location.

Applications
Stand-Alone/Home Theater
The VIA!4.0 can be used for any stand-alone (non-ELAN) system
application or as a Home Theater controller. The diagram below
shows a basic application using one VIA!4.0, a PVIA1, and an
ELAN IRD4 Amplified IR Connection Block to control a stack of
A/V equipment.

Stand-Alone/Home Theater - Expanded
Stand-alone systems (without an ELAN multi-room controller) can be
as simple as one VIA!4.0 controlling one IR source, or as complex as
multiple VIA!4.0s, VIA!64s, keypads, and IR sensors all controlling
many IR sources. The diagram below shows four VIA!4.0s and a
PVIA4 controlling a stack of A/V gear.

ELAN S12
ELAN’s PS12 Precision Panel for the System12 Multi-Room A/V
Controller (S12) makes quick work out of configuring VIA!4.0s to
control S12 zones. No PVIA Wall Plate is necessary when using
VIA!4.0s with an S12; the PS12 has all necessary provisions. A
PWR4 or PWR10 Power Supply must be used when connecting VIA!
Touch panels to the PS12. The diagram below shows eight VIA!4.0s
and a PS12 connected to an ELAN S12.

The VIA!4.0’s affordability makes it an ideal candidate for System6
(S6) applications. Use a PVIA Wall Plate appropriate for the number
of VIA!4.0s to be installed. The diagram below shows four VIA!4.0s
and a PVIA4 configured for use with an ELAN S6.
