Each keypad must be programmed individually and it will save the label names even if the keypad is disconnected from the systems. The MR164 keypad labels can be programmed offsite if desired.

Note: All of the MR164 keypads in this system have to be programmed with the same labels and in the same source order.

The sources should be connected, but it is not necessary to have the source wires connected to program the keypad labels.

Using the back of this manual, please write down the source name connected to source 1, source 2, source 3, source 4, source 5, source 6 and source 7.

With the amplifier turned on and the zone identification completed (above), the source input labels are now ready to be programmed. This is how the source that has been selected, and is playing, is easily identified on the keypad LCD readout.

First the system must be powered up, but all zones turned off. The keypad will display:
