7.Install MR60 keypads (or infrared receivers) in the rooms with the speakers. Cat 3 or cat 5 wire can be home run to the MVP44a or up to three rooms daisy chained on one wire.

***Be sure to set the dip switch on the rear of the MR60*** See the dip switch adjustment below. Connect all eight individual wires using RJ45 connectors. Four wire conductors are needed for each keypad (one unique, common: IR , ground and 12VDC).

MVP44a Activation

The 590-00 generates infrared command sequences when a momentary pulse from any of the six MVP44a function outputs are activated. Source A is usually reserved for CD use. When the MVP44a is powered up someone pushing a MR60 Source button or RB8 remote source, the power on (TON) pulse is activated.

Adjustment

Use either RJ45 connector as they are in parallel

MR60 1 2 3 4

Some examples to understand when MVP44a pulses are activated and the 590-00 macro sequencies are initiated are listed below: Note: None of the functions below work when any MR60 leds are blinking to indicate MUTE activated.

Pulse O/P

Activates when:

Example IR sequence:

The rear of the MR60 is shown. Because one to three MR60's can be connected or daisy chained to the same cat 5 wire, the keypad position on the wire must be selected using the dip switch. The two MR60 RJ45 connectors are in parallel. Only one dip switch slider should be on and the other two off (#1 is shown on in this example). The MR60 1-2-3 dip switch positions correspond to MVP44a keypad ports and speaker outputs A3 or B1-B2-B3.

***Even if the keypads are home run, the MR60 dip switch position has to be selected***

If three keypads are daisy chained on one wire, select the MR60 dip switch on the first MR60 to one, the second MR60 to two and the third MR60 to three. At the rear of the MVP44a, the RJ45 connector from the three MR60 keypads can be connected any corresponding keypad Bank A3 or Bank B; port 1, 2 or 3. The corresponding speaker outputs will be the same number as selected

After installation, if the keypads are not working properly or not controlling at all, Check the MR60 dip switch settings, wiring layout and crimp as well as bank connections very carefully.

Programming the 590-00

IR functions do not have to be related to the source input. For example, if source A is a CD player and source B is a jazz tuner, function A could be a sequence of CD skip, CD play, and CD random. Function B could be CD Skip to next disk. After deciding and writing down the commands to be programmed for each of the six pulse activations (Function A, B, C, D, TON and TOFF),
