INTERFERENCE STATEMENT
The NexStar RS-485 Multiplexer sold by Westinghouse Security Electronics has been tested
and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions herein, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. If this equipment does cause interference to
radio or television reception, consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician
for correction.
The user may find helpful the following booklet, prepared by the Federal Communications
Commission: How to Identify and Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems." This booklet is
available from the US Government Printing Office, Washington DC 20402, stock number: 004-
000-00345-4.
UL-294 Notice
The NexStar RS-485 Multiplexer is UL-294 listed and may be used in a UL-294 listed
access control system. All system components must be UL-294 listed and installed
according to manufacturers' instructions to comply with UL-requirements.

IMPORTANT WARNING
Do not connect the NexStar without having carefully read this guide. If this is the first time you have
installed this type of device, have another person check the connections before turning on the power.
The warranty is void if you damage any component because of an error in wiring a connection. Follow
these basic procedures and precautions to avoid damage to the components (local codes and practices
may also apply and must be complied with).

SCOPE
This manual provides information necessary to install, use and troubleshoot a NexStar RS-485
Multiplexer. It is assumed that the person reading this manual is familiar with access control
systems and standard installation practices. The information provided in this manual is not
intended to conflict with the building, electrical, fire or safety codes required for any given
installation.
INTRODUCTION
The NexStar is a symmetrical 5-port repeater with built-in arbitration logic. Any one port will
relay the data it receives to the other four ports. Bus arbitration is done on a first-come, first-
served basis. During periods of no activity, the NexStar automatically places all 5 ports into the
receive mode to wait for the next message.
The NexStar provides a link between a WSE access control unit, such as the NexSentry or SE
818SC, and multiple S-Net runs. A single S-Net run may be a maximum of 4000 feet (1200
meters). Using all of the NexStar 's five symmetrical ports, the end-to-end S-Net length can
span up to 8000 feet (2400 meters) and contain up to 20,000 feet (6000 meters) of installed
wiring.

In the simplest configuration, the NexStar allows home-run wiring which eliminates excessively
long wire runs and the need to make multiple connections to a single terminal block
