EZ-Pad Features
1. MKP-1.0/MKP-8.1 SOURCE/FUNCTION BUTTONS – Any of this set of eight buttons can be programmed as a
Source Select or transport/function button for the MZC-88. One of the eight must always be designated as a Source
Button. 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 the active source and the system is on in that zone.
2.
KEYPAD EXPANSION TERMINAL – This 16-pin header terminal is used to inter-connect EZ-Pad modules for expansion
as needed. A 3-connector ribbon cable is packed with each NKP-1.0 and FKP-1.0 module for making these connec-
tions.
3.
ADDRESS SWITCH – An 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 addresses (0 to F).
4. SNAP TABS – These tabs hold the decorator style insert panel to the metal mounting plate and are easily released for
changing buttons.
EZ-PAD FEATURE DESCRIPTIONS
EZ-Pads come in four basic modules as shown. The MKP-1.0, MKP-8.1 and MKP-1.1 are Master Keypads and one must be
used in each MZC-88 Zone using a keypad. The MZC-88 comes with eight pre-configured MKP-8.1’s. For convenience, it is
usable right “out of the box” in conjunction with a default project that is factory programmed into the MZC-88. The MKP-8.1
and MKP-1.1 feature a built-in IR receiver and have one less function button than the MKP-1.0, but are otherwise identical.
The NKP-1.0 Numeric and FKP-1.0 Function key modules may be thought of as “slaves” to the Master Keypad (they will not
work alone), providing more buttons for additional numeric and function commands.
