KP21R REMOTE CONTROL
NOTE: The KP21R only needs to be programmed to control the
local sources for the particular zone that it will be used in. All
shared (multizone) sources are programmed from within the
AVR21EN and no additional control is needed.
Programming the KP21R Remote Control
The KP21R zone remote is setup to control a remote zone in a
W.H.E.N. System right out of the box. System commands such as
ON/OFF, Source Select, Volume and other basic system functions
are preprogrammed. Control of common-source components is
done on a system basis once MAIN MENU/REMOTE CONTROL
SETUP has been configured. The system will recognize button
presses from the KP21R and output the appropriate IR commands
for the device selected on the remote.
The KP21R can also be used to control a local TV or video display
and two local sources such as a video game, or cable/satellite
receiver, etc. To control these devices the KP21R must be manually
programmed using the remote’s built-in menu system.
NOTE: There are only three devices that can be configured for
direct control using the KP21R remote. They are TV/Combo, Local 1
and Local 2. These devices will be controlled directly from the
KP21R with their original IR codes. The common sources will be
controlled with their original IR codes, but only when output from
the AVR21EN, when prompted by the special Audioaccess codes
output by button presses from the KP21R.
TV Setup
To configure the KP21R remote to control a Remote Room TV:
1. Turn on the power to the TV. This is important, as in a later
step you will need to see whether the TV turns off to determine
whether the remote has been programmed for the proper
remote codes.
2. Press and hold the
Rem Menu Button for about 3 seconds
while the message HOLD BUTTON FOR 3 SECONDS
appears in the remote’s LCD
Information Display . Release
the button when the red light under the
Set Button
appears (Figure 121).
Figure 121.
3. The remote’s MAIN MENU/PROGRAM CODE message will
appear in the LCD display and the
Set Button will remain
illuminated in red. Press the
Set Button to begin the
process of selecting a device and locating the proper remote
codes (
Figure 122).

KP21R Remote Control
47. Monitor Button: Press this button to switch the speakers and
video display to the last keypad selected for the Monitor
function. That is, if the baby’s room was last selected for
audio and video monitor, it will be selected when the
Monitor button is pressed. Repeated presses will scroll
through the Monitor modes: Audio/Video, Video, Audio.
48.
Local 1 Select Button: Press this button to select and
control the device connected to the local keypad’s
AUX-IN. Commands for controlling this device must be
configured in the KP21R remote. See the
Programming
the KP21R Remote/Learning Commands
section.
49.
Mute Button: Press this button to momentarily silence the
KP21 keypad. Press it again, or use the
Volume Up/Down
Control
to restore audio.
50.
IR Transmitter/Receiver: The infrared emitters and
receivers behind the plastic lens at the top of the remote
communicate the remote codes to the KP21 keypad and
other programmed devices. Be certain that the lens is
not covered when using the remote, and point the lens
toward the AVR21EN for the best results. In learning mode,
the remote receives IR codes to be learned through a
receiver behind the lens. See the
Programming the KP21R
Remote/Learning Commands
section for more informa-
tion on learning remote codes.
NOTE: DO NOT remove the rubber plug that is supplied to
cover the jack on the upper right side of the remote. This
jack is not active and is reserved for future use.
