M4 AUDIO CONTROLLER WITH KEYPAD SYSTEM

SINGLE GANG

DOUBLE GANG

TRIPLE GANG

The Proficient M4 System consists of four subsystems. First, the keypads themselves can be configured in many key icon arrangements and placed in a one, two or three gang set-up to meet virtually any client requirement. They are connected via convenient CAT5 cable with home-run lengths of up to 1000' (305m or longer, if heavier gauge wire is used) to the centrally located M4 Multi-Zone Audio Amplifier/ Controller located near the controlled equipment. The M4 contains the “brains” of the system, taking

key location data from the keypads to trigger the actual controlling IR, RS232 and RS485 commands that are passed to all of the installed system components. Programming is accomplished by the use of Proficient Editor, a Proficient developed Windows software system. A fourth item, the optional Command Interface (sold separately), is an installer’s tool for learning and teaching special IR commands that are not included in the Proficient Editor internal library.

Keypad Features

Single Gang Set-Up

1. PMKIR Source/Function Buttons – Six of this set

of eight buttons are programmed as source select

for the M4. When the system is off, all buttons have

a background green color. When a source button is

pressed, it turns to a low-level red color to show that

it is the active source and the system is on.

2. Keypad Expansion Terminal – This 16-pin header

terminal is used to inter-connect the optional numeric

and function keypad modules for expansion as

needed. A 3-connector ribbon cable is packed with

each module for making these connections.

3. Address Switch – A unique hex address must be

set for each master keypad when connected on a

common bus within a single zone. Unique addresses

are not required zone-to-zone. It provides up to 16

5. Mounting Plate – Standard plate allows the

keypad module to be attached to standard in-wall

J-Boxes using the two screws provided. Allows

attachment of standard decorator type cover plates

(also screw-less snap-on plates).

6. IR Receiver Lens – Version PMKIR includes

Proficient’s exclusive ANS IR receiver, built-in. It allows

the use of a handheld remote for control of system

components.

7. Connection Terminals – for CAT5 home-run

termination. + Relay and – Relay - for future use.

The keypads come in four basic modules as shown. The PMK (13 buttons) and PMKIR (12 buttons) are the master keypads and must be used in each system.

As mentioned earlier, the M4 comes with a pre- configured version of the PMKIR, for the convenience of the installer. It is usable right "out of the box" in conjunction with a default project that is factory

programmed into the M4. The PMKIR includes an IR receiver and has one less function button, but is otherwise identical to the PMK. The PNK Numeric (16 buttons) and PFK Function (14 buttons) keypad modules can be thought of as “slaves” to the master unit (they will not work alone), providing additional key locations for numeric and function commands.
