Installing W.H.E.N. System Components
W.H.E.N. allows unprecedented flexibility in system design for
incorporating whole-house A/V distribution and control, and home
theater.
For the purpose of detailing the options, the Multizone sections
will be broken down into three groups: Main Room, Three-Zone
System and Hub System. There are critical differences in system
components and connections with these different options, so each
will be detailed separately.
Main Room
The Home Theater (AVR21EN) and common-source components
used by the Home Theater and Remote Rooms.
Three-Zone System
A system that includes the Main Room and two audio-only zones
controlled with KP21 keypads connected directly to the AVR21EN.
Hub System
A system that includes the Main Room and any number (up to 20)
of additional zones, controlled with KP21 keypads connected to
AVH21 audio/video hubs and WPS21 power supply hubs. (The max-
imum number of AVH21 and WPS21 hub sets is three.)
KP21 HARDWARE INSTALLATION
KP21 Mounting
The KP21s should be mounted in proper two-gang J-boxes. Carlon,
BH235A (new work, closed box), BH234R (old work-retrofit, closed
box), SC200A (new work, open frame) and SCS200RR (old work-
retrofit, open frame) are the only approved options.
NOTE: A KP21 SHOULD NEVER BE INSTALLED IN THE SAME ELEC-
TRICAL BOX WITH HIGH-VOLTAGE (AC) DEVICES SUCH AS LIGHT
SWITCHES AND DIMMERS. This will negatively affect system per-
formance and is a violation of electrical code in most areas.
Keypad Address (Zone Number) Settings
Before making any connections to a KP21 Keypad, it must be con-
figured for its unique keypad address (zone number). This address
tells the system which button in which zone is initiating a specific
command or function. The network address is set using the six-
position
DIP Switch on the side of the KP21. There are
20 address configurations. They can be set using the table in
Figure 19.
NOTE:
No two keypads can share the same address.
