Introduction

This manual provides installation and operation instructions for the Extron MKP 2000.

About the MKP 2000 Remote Control Panel

The MKP 2000 is a network-ready remote control panel that can control any Extron matrix switcher. The MKP’s RS-232 ports allow it to communicate with other devices (another MKP or a matrix switcher) locally and its Ethernet port allows it to communicate with multiple devices.

An MKP 2000 user can remotely create ties by specifying an input and then an output to be tied to the input. The MKP can also be dedicated to a specific group of inputs and outputs when configured using the built-in Web pages.

The MKP 2000 is mounted in a two-gang wall plate that can be installed in a wall, conference table, podium, or other convenient location.

Although the matrix switcher system can have up to 128 inputs and 128 outputs, a conference room may have 3 input devices and 2 output devices, a training room next door may have 4 input devices and 1 output device, and so on. Typically, each room will have one or more MKP control panels assigned to it, with each MKP limited to the inputs and outputs that it can control. In the example in Figure 1-1, the “presentation room” (top center) has one output device, projector (C) and four input devices: a video camera (13), a laptop computer (12) and two PCs (11 and 14). The “Media Room” contains the matrix switcher, as well as other inputs (1-6) and possibility some control device(s).

An overflow crowd in the video conference room and/or the training room may need to see a lecture going on in the presentation room. In this case, the video camera (input 13) must be available to those other rooms, so the MKPs in the video conference and training rooms will be programmed to allow selection of input 13 for displays in those rooms, in addition to any video sources and/or displays in those rooms.

RS-232 connection to the switcher

Any number of MKP 2000s can be connected to a matrix switcher through its RS-232 port, but one MKP must be designated as the primary controller. Other MKPs can be daisy chained through the primary MKP remote control panel.

Installation

CAUTION

Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only. UL Listed electrical boxes are recommended. See UL Requirements

for Wall Box Installation on the next page.

The MKP 2000 remote control panel should be installed in a standard, 2-gang electrical wall box (figure 2-1). Figure 2-1 shows the MKP installed in a wall. This could also be in a desk, a podium, or any other convenient location.

The procedures provided here assume that the electrical wall boxes and the cables have been installed for the system. Rear Panel and Side Panel Connections, starting on page 2-8 provides guidance for terminating the cables.

MKP Installation Overview

To install an MKP 2000 remote control panel, follow these steps:

Disconnect power from the matrix switcher and all MKPs

in the system. Prepare the site: cut a hole in the wall/furniture, install

the electrical box or mud ring, and prepare the cables. Instructions are included in this manual and/or with the wall box. See Preparing the site, installing the mud ring or wall box in this chapter.

Connect the cable between the MKP and the

matrix switcher. See Rear Panel and Side Panel Connections on page 2-8.

UL Requirements for Wall Box Installation

Installation Procedures

The MKPs are mounted into a wall, furniture, or any other convenient location. Follow the instructions appropriate to the mounting option you have selected.

CAUTION

MKP 2000 Remote Control Panel • Installation

The control panel must be installed into an Underwriters Laboratories (UL) approved electrical wall box.

When installing MKP control panels, you must conform to all national and local electrical codes.

2-3

Installation, cont’d

Preparing the site, installing the mud ring or wall box

Choose a location that allows cable runs without interference. Allow enough depth for both the wall box and the cables. You may need to install the cables into the wall, furniture, or conduits before installing the control panel.

The installation must conform to national and local electrical codes and to the equipment’s size requirements. An actual-size cut-out template that shows the cutout requirement for the circuitry enclosure on the rear of the control panel is provided in appendix A of this manual.

Installation using a UL listed wall box (available from Extron) is recommended for most mounting options, but the included mud rings can be used instead.

Before using the mud rings, verify that the installation conforms to national and local electrical codes.

CAUTION

Install the mud ring or wall box as follows: 1a. If you are using a mud ring, use the template that came

with the mud ring. Cut out the indicated center portion.

1b. If you are using a wall box, cut out or make a 100% size

photocopy of the cut-out template in appendix A that corresponds to the faceplate you are using, and cut out the center portion of it as indicated on the template.

2. Place the template (or the wall box or mud ring) against

the installation surface, and mark the guidelines for the opening on the wall or furniture.

3. Cut out the wall/furniture material from the marked area.

4. Check the opening size by inserting the wall box, mud

ring, or control panel into the opening. The box or mud ring (if used) and/or control panel should fit easily into the opening. Enlarge or smooth the edges of the opening if needed.

Extron provides one mud ring with each MKP control panel. However, the user may choose to use a wall box. Because the tolerances on electrical boxes are very loose, it is recommended that you measure the actual box that you plan to use before making any precise cuts.

The electrical box must be at least 2.5" (7 cm) deep to accommodate the MKP’s rear enclosure.

To meet the UL listing requirements, this device must be installed in a wall box.

5. If you are using a wall box, feed cables through the wall

box punch-out holes, and secure them with cable clamps to provide strain relief.

6. Exposed cable shields (braids or foil) are potential sources

of short circuits. Trim back and/or insulate shields with heat shrink (figure 2-2).
