Installation instructions for new buildingsThe following should be ensured when setting up a reliable,simple, economical and future-oriented ABB-Welcomesystem:» The use of telecommunication cables J-Y(St)-Y in theindoor and A-2Y(L)2Y in the outdoor area with a diameterof 0.8 mm. In addition to the wire pair of the ABB-Welcome2-wire bus, other pairs of wires can be kept as "reserve"in the same cable. For example, for later connection to aBusch-Watchdog movement detector in the outdoor areaor as power supply for future bus devices.» For smaller systems: Looping the internal bus from deviceto device» For larger systems: Setup of a structure with a rising mainsand several stub lines. If two rising mains are provided, thetwo internal bus lines can be used.Part of daily life. The ABB-WelcomeTouch in new buildings.An ABB-Welcome audio system should make laterconversion to video easy. The conversion includes theexchange of at least one ABB-Welcome audio outdoorstation with an ABB-Welcome video outdoor station andat least one ABB-Welcome audio indoor station with anABB-WelcomeTouch. The system controller need not bereplaced.For branch connections in the system, video distributorsmust be installed for the conversion. These are not requiredin the internal bus – if it is looped from device to device.The setting of the terminal resistors of the system must bechecked after the conversion (See 20, Chapter 02).03Expert installation.General information for the installation of an ABB-Welcomesystem in new and existing buildings. The installation of flush-mounted and surface-mounted devices as well as MDRC unitsis described in detail in the operating manuals of the devices.30 Installation | User Manual ABB-Welcome
