KC6 Keypad

SKU KC6N

The KC6 Keypad includes back-lit, soft-touch buttons and connects to the controller via Cat-5 (or higher) cable.  The keypad lights up when pressed and goes into "sleep mode" after half a minute.  When in "sleep mode", only the power button remains lit and only at half intensity, so you can fall asleep to your music without any distraction from the keypad.

Use the KC6 to control the zone to which it is connected:

  • Power on/off the zone
  • Select source
  • Control volume, mute
  • Set treble, bass, and balance

Use the KC6 for limited control of all zones:

  • Power on all zones to the same source (party mode)
  • Power off all zones

Details

Our KC6 back-lit keypad is easy to install and easy to use. No programming is necessary and, unlike other designs, our keypad is intuitive and can be used by anyone the first time.


Simply push one of the six soft-gel buttons to select the source you want to hear and control volume with similar up/down buttons. You can easily put the system into "party mode" by pressing a source button for five seconds. All zones, whether currently turned on or off, are immediately switched to on and with that source selected. Volume in each zone returns to the last volume set in that zone. Press the Power/Mute button once to put a zone into mute. Press it for one second and that zone is turned off. Press it for three seconds and all zones are turned off.


Enter "set-up" mode by pressing both volume buttons at the same time for three seconds. While in set-up mode, the top two source buttons are used to increase (right) or decrease (left) the amount of treble sent into that zone; the middle two buttons control bass and the bottom two buttons are used to set balance between speakers.


The keypad is designed to fit a Decora-style cutout. We provide an attractive "screwless" wall plate, but you can instead choose to install the keypad using your own Decora-style wall plate, including a multi-gang plate.


The keypad connects to the MC-66 or MCA-66 via Cat-5 cable. Each keypad includes two RJ-45 inputs so that up to three keypads can be "daisy chained" together in the same zone.


Each KC6 Keypad includes an IR (infra-red) receiver that transmits signals received from any IR remote control (operating in the 37.5 to 56 kHz band) back to the controller. Using IR emitters connected to the back of the controller and positioned in front of source components located near the controller, it is possible to control a component using its remote control from any room that includes a KC6 keypad, i.e. you can control centrally located devices from within each zone.
