Keypad Connection
The CI6 outputs can be controlled by the MR164 or Mr166 keypad and/or an external controller or computer (using the RS232 port), so keypads may not be needed.
More than one or two keypads can be used in a zone and nine (9) is the maximum number of MR164 or Mr166 keypads per CI6 allowed.
Note: MR164 and MR166 keypads are not designed for outdoor use, high humidity, high temperatures or any extremes.
The MR164 and Mr166 contains an almost all brand infrared repeater and most functions can be controlled by the Knoll RB12 remote control. RB12 commands can easily be stored in a learning remote.
The MR164 is connected to the CI6 with CAT5 or CATe wire. Each keypad can have a home run or be daisy chained on one wire. If you daisy chain one zone and another zone on one wire you may lose some infrared functionality. Each room or zone has a unique IR
Note: It is very important to use a top quality RJ45 8/8 crimper tool. We strongly suggest using a cat 5 / RJ45 electronic tester to verify the wire conductors.
