About the MKP 2000 Remote Control Panel

The MKP 2000 is a network-ready remote control panel that can control any Extron matrix switcher. The MKP’s RS-232 ports allow it to communicate with other devices (another MKP or a matrix switcher) locally and its Ethernet port allows it to communicate with multiple devices.

An MKP 2000 user can remotely create ties by specifying an input and then an output to be tied to the input. The MKP can also be dedicated to a specific group of inputs and outputs when configured using the built-in Web pages.

The MKP 2000 is mounted in a two-gang wall plate that can be installed in a wall, conference table, podium, or other convenient location.

Although the matrix switcher system can have up to 128 inputs and 128 outputs, a conference room may have 3 input devices

and 2 output devices, a training room next door may have 4 input devices and 1 output device, and so on. Typically, each room will have one or more MKP control panels assigned to it, with each MKP limited to the inputs and outputs that it can control. In the example in Figure 1-1, the “presentation room” (top center) has one output device, projector (C) and four input devices: a video camera (13), a laptop computer (12) and two PCs (11 and 14). The “Media Room” contains the matrix switcher, as well as other inputs (1-6) and possibility some control device(s).

Figure 1-1 — Typical MKP 2000 applications

An overflow crowd in the video conference room and/or the training room may need to see a lecture going on in the presentation room. In this case, the video camera (input 13) must be available to those other rooms, so the MKPs in the video conference and training rooms will be programmed to allow selection of input 13 for displays in those rooms, in addition to any video sources and/or displays in those rooms.

RS-232 connection to the switcher

Any number of MKP 2000s can be connected to a matrix switcher through its RS-232 port, but one MKP must be designated as the primary controller. Other MKPs can be daisy chained through the primary MKP remote control panel.

Ethernet connection to the switcher

Any number of MKP 2000s can be connected to a matrix switcher as part of an Ethernet local area network (LAN).
