Introduction
The McIntosh Model WK-2 Keypad is designed to re- motely operate McIntosh A/V Control Centers, Preamplifi- ers and Multizone Controllers. The WK-2 also includes an IR Sensor which allows the IR Signal Commands from a Remote Control to be passed onto the McIntosh A/V Con- trol Centers, Preamplifiers and Multizone Controllers. The Keypad allows Input Selection, Transport Functions, Tuner Functions, and Volume Level Adjustments.
Installation and Connection
The WK-2 Keypad mounts in a standard two-gang wall outlet box and connections are made using a RG59U or RG6 Coax Cable (300ft max.) with “F” Connectors at both ends. Connect the Coax Cable between the WK-2 and the “F” Connector on a McIntosh A/V Control Center, Pream- plifier, Multizone Controller or Integrated Amplifier. Up to four keypads can be connected in parallel on the same co- axial line. When the WK-2 is to be connected to a McIn- tosh A/V Control Center that uses a Five Pin Terminal Connector instead of the “F” Coax Connector, connect the Center Conductor to Pin 4 and the Shield Conductor to Pin
5.Refer to figure 1.
Note: Before connecting the WK-2 Keypad to a McIntosh A/V Control Center, Preamplifier, Multizone Controller or Integrated Amplifier, make sure that the Main AC POWER Switch is in the Off Position (or remove the unit’s AC Plug from the AC Wall Outlet).
