Caution: Power voltage for the keypad is transmitted along this cable! Incorrect wiring on this cable can destroy the MRC Keypad! Be sure to test cable for proper connections before making connections.

Multiple Keypad Connections

1.For a second keypad in the same zone, terminate the CAT5 cable in the same way as shown in Figure 10.

2.Connect the CAT5 coming from the MRC88 Controller to the “CONTROLLER” jack on the Primary Keypad. Plug a CAT5 cable into the “EXPANSION” jack on the Primary Keypad and connect it to the “CONTROLLER” jack on the Secondary Keypad.

There are three different setup modes in the Dragon Drop-IRSoftware. The Basic mode allows quick setup and programming for an Eight zone system. It assumes all zones will use factory defaults and will behave exactly the same. The Advanced mode allows customization of system configuration for functions such as zone link, monitor lockout, unique IR programming by zone, etc. The Expanded mode allows programming of systems with more than Eight zones using linked MRC88 Controllers Figure 1 -
