MR64 Keypad

Installation

Instructions

Congratulations and thank you for choosing this Knoll product. The MR64 keypads are the power behind an advanced music control system that is easy-to-use with top quality sound available in up to six or more rooms.

The MR64 is only for use with the MVP44a, MVP64a and MR640 controller. MR64’s can be used in combination with MR60 keypads in the same system, but only one keypad per zone is permitted. Please see the manuals shipped with the MVP44a, MVP64a or MR600.

The MR64 is available with two LCD colors, yellow-green with black lettering and blue with white lettering (model MR64b). Both versions are available with Decora™ style bezel plates in white, almond, black or ivory colors.

The music system consists of:

1.Rooms with stereo speakers, a MR64 or MR60 keypad or infrared receiver and a remote control.

2.One or more MVP44a, MVP64a or MR640 controller(s).

3.One or more multi-zone amplifiers if the MR640 is used.

4.Stereo source components such as tuners, CD players, satellite dish receivers, cassette decks, and other components.

While the MR64 evolved after years of research, its use is straightforward and direct. Some rooms may have more than one pair of speakers but only one keypad or possibly even no keypad.

The music system is controlled by the MR64 and MR60 keypads, RB8 or universal remote, the source components and possibly a whole home controller. The source components are controlled by their individual remote controls by aiming the remote control at the keypad or infrared receiver and pressing the appropriate remote control button.

MR64 keypad installation

Individual rooms can be controlled by a MR64, MR60 and/or an RB8 remote control or a universal remote control with the RB8 commands installed. MR60 and MR64 keypads control the speakers for the room it is located in or the whole house (all rooms). The RB8 remote can turn off the whole house but can only turn on and adjust the room it is in.

Setting the dipswitch

Before installing any MR64 keypad, the dipswitch on the rear of the keypad has to be set. The dipswitch will have one of the three switches set to on and the other two off. This feature was added so that in non-new or existing construction, three keypads for three rooms can be connected to one cat 5 wire.
