USERIntroduction
Product Overview

Thank you for choosing the Russound SaphIR™ K2 keypad. The K2 is an in-wall programmable IR keypad that works like a universal remote to provide complete control of your audio and video components. It contains an extensive library of IR codes to select discs, tracks, channels, volume, and other settings for most audio and video components. It can also learn IR commands for components and other devices not in the library. A powerful macro feature allows you to use the K2 for advanced functions such as lowering a screen and dimming the lights in a home theater. A built-in speaker relay allows you to easily mute the speakers in the room by simply turning off the keypad.

Applications

•Control an entertainment system with up to eight sources — The K2 keypad controls up to eight audio-video sources and a stereo or home theater receiver or IR-controlled amplifier.

•Control the second zone of a receiver or processor — If you have a multizone receiver or processor with an IR control port for the second zone, you can use the K2 to remotely control the second zone from that room.

•Control multiple receivers — If you have multiple receivers, you can create a simple multiroom system sharing sources such as a CD/DVD player or cable box. In this scenario, each receiver is dedicated to a single zone and controlled by a separate K2 key- pad. This gives each user their own tuner and individual volume controls as well as access to the common sources.
