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.

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).

Control connections

The MKP has two RS-232 ports; a Host port (1) and a Switcher port (2); and an Ethernet (LAN) port (3).

An MKP control panel can be directly connected to any Extron matrix switcher through the switcher’s RS-232 port (figure 2-8). A control system or host computer can be connected via the MKP’s host RS-232 port. Additional MKPs can be connected to the matrix switcher through the MKP that is RS-232 connected to the switcher (the primary MKP). The additional (secondary) MKPs are connected to the primary MKP via the primary MKP’s Ethernet port.

RS-232 cable termination

Each MKP control panel has two RS-232 ports that are connected using 3.5 mm, 3-pole direct insertion connectors. Wire the connectors as follows:

The total cable length between an MKP control panel and a matrix switcher should not exceed 100 feet (30 m).

1. Choose a cable such as Extron’s Comm-Link cable. The

wire specifications for Comm-Link cable are on page A-6. Colors may vary from this example.

2. Trim approximately 1.5" (3.8 cm) of the cable jacket to

expose the four insulated wires and a bare drain wire (silver-colored).

3. Cut off the foil shield and discard it.

4. Strip 1/4" ( 0.6 cm) of insulation from three of the four

wires.

5. Twist the strands of each wire, insert them into the direct

insertion connector, and tighten the captive screws.

TP cable termination

It is vital that your Ethernet cables be the correct cables, and that they be properly terminated with the correct pinout. Ethernet links use Category (CAT) 5e or CAT 6, unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables, terminated with RJ-45 connectors. Ethernet cables are limited to a length 328' (100 m).

Do not use standard telephone cables. Telephone cables will not support Ethernet or Fast Ethernet.

Do not stretch or bend cables. Transmission errors can occur .

The cable used depends on your network speed. The MKP supports both 10 Mbps (10Base-T — Ethernet) and 100 Mbps (100Base-T — Fast Ethernet), half-duplex and full-duplex, Ethernet connections.

• 10Base-T Ethernet requires CAT 3 UTP or STP cable as a minimum.

• 100Base-T Fast Ethernet requires CAT 5e UTP or STP cable as a minimum.

The Ethernet cable can be terminated as a straight-through cable or a crossover cable and must be properly terminated for your application (figure 2-11).

• Crossover cable — Direct connection between the MKP and a host computer or an Ethernet-enabled matrix switcher (figure 2-9).

• Patch (straight) cable — Network connection between the MKP and an Ethernet LAN (figure 2-10).

Viewing and configuring the IP and MKP set-up parameters

To configure the MKP to operate in your LAN system, one or more of the following IP addresses and the host control port setting may need to be changed:

• The MKP’s IP address (default = 192.168.254.253)

• The MKP’s subnet address (default = 255.255.0.0)

• The MKP’s gateway address (default = 0.0.0.0)

• The target matrix switcher’s IP address (default = 0.0.0.0)

• Host control port setting (pass-through or no passthrough) (default = no pass-through)

• MKP’s connection setting

 Primary — Controls the switcher directly.  Secondary — Controls the switcher through another

MKP and its Switcher RS-232 port.

Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric subfields (octets) separated by dots (periods). Each octet can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes, up to 3 digits total per octet, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.

If any of the default address conflict with other equipment at your installation, you can change the IP address(es) to any valid value.

Editing the Extron IP address and other parameters while connected via the LAN port can immediately disconnect the user from the MKP. Extron recommends editing this field using the front panel or the RS-232 link

and protecting the Ethernet access to these parameters by assigning an administrator’s password to qualified and knowledgeable personnel only.

Edit these addresses and set the host control setting as follows:

1. Simultaneously press and hold the Input, Output, and

Take buttons for approximately 2 seconds until the LED display changes and then release the buttons.

• The LED display shows the most-significant (left-most) octet of the MKP’s IP address (figure 3-2 on page 3-6).

Routing matrix switcher commands

When the MKP is connected to the matrix switcher via its Switcher RS-232 port, the MKP can redirect SIS matrix switcher commands received on the Host RS-232 port to the matrix switcher.

If the MKP receives a valid matrix switcher SIS command on its Host RS-232 port, it redirects the command to its Switcher RS-232 port only if the MKP is set to Pass-through mode. See the pass-through port redirect command set on page 4-8 to set the Pass-through mode.

*The default baud rate is 9600, but this can also be changed, using the MKP’s web pages, to 19200, 38400, or 115200 baud to match the switcher’s baud rate. See

Port (RS-232) Settings in chapter 5, HTML Operation, to change the baud rate.

Ethernet Link

The rear panel LAN connector on the MKP can be connected directly to a host computer (for set-up) or a matrix switcher (for switcher control) or to an Ethernet LAN or WAN (to which a host computer, other MKPs and a matrix switcher can also be connected).

• Connection directly to a host computer requires a crossover cable.

• Connection via an Ethernet LAN requires a patch (straight) cable.

See TP cable termination in chapter 2, Installation to create crossover and patch cables.

Default IP address

To access the MKP via the Ethernet port, you will need the Extron IP address. If the address has been changed to an address comprised of words and characters, the actual numeric IP address can be determined using the ping (ICMP) utility. If the address has not been changed, the factory-specified default is 192.168.254.253.

Host-to-MKP Instructions

The switcher accepts SIS (Simple Instruction Set) commands through the Host RS-232 port and Ethernet port. SIS commands consist of one or more characters per command field. They do not require any special characters to begin or end the command character sequence. Each switcher response to an SIS command ends with a carriage return and a line feed (CR/LF = ), which signals the end of the response character string. A string is one or more characters.

MKP-Initiated (Unsolicited) Messages

When a local event such as a front panel operation occurs, the switcher responds by sending a message to the host. The switcher-initiated messages are listed below (underlined).

powered on or when connection via Internet protocol (IP) is established. Vx.xx is the firmware version number.

Password:

The switcher initiates the password message immediately after the copyright message when the controlling system is connected using TCP/IP or Telnet and the switcher is password protected.

MKP 2000 Remote Control Panel • SIS Operation

4-34-2

SIS Operation, cont’d

This message means that the switcher requires an administrator or user level password before it will perform the commands entered via this link. The switcher repeats the password message response for every entry other than a valid password until a valid password is entered.

The switcher initiates the login message when a correct administrator or user password has been entered. If the user and administrator passwords are the same, the switcher defaults to administrator privileges.

MKP Error Responses

When the switcher receives an SIS command and determines that it is valid, it performs the command and sends a response to the host device. If the switcher is unable to perform the command because the command is invalid or contains invalid parameters, the switcher returns an error response to the host. The error response codes are:

E01 — Invalid input channel number (too large) E10 — Invalid command E12 — Invalid output number (too large) E13 — Invalid value (out of range) E14 — Illegal command for this configuration E24 — Privilege violation (Ethernet, Extron software only) E99 — Invalid or no response from target switcher

ASCII to HEX Conversion Table

Space

The MKP always redirects a subset of valid matrix switcherspecific SIS commands on its Ethernet port and, if configured in pass-through mode, on its Switcher RS-232 port.

It is not the purpose of this manual to define in detail the passed-through matrix switcher-specific SIS commands. Refer to the applicable matrix switcher’s manual.

Symbols are used throughout the tables to represent variables in the command/response fields. Command and response examples are shown throughout the MKP SIS commands table.

Using the Command/Response Table

The command/response table begins on page 4-8. Lower case letters are acceptable in the command field except where indicated for the gain and attenuation commands. The table below shows the hexadecimal equivalent of each ASCII character used in the command/response tables.

MKP 2000 Remote Control Panel • SIS Operation

HTML Operation

The MKP can be configured through its Ethernet port, connected via a LAN or WAN, using a web browser such as Microsoft’s Internet Explorer. The browser’s display of the MKP’s configuration has the appearance of web pages. This chapter describes the factory-installed HTML pages, which are always available and cannot be erased or overwritten.

If your Ethernet connection to the matrix switcher is unstable, try turning off the proxy server in your Web browser. In Microsoft’s Internet Explore, click Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN Settings, uncheck the “Use a proxy server...” box, and then click Ok.

Download the Startup Page

Access the MKP using HTML pages as follows:

1. Start the Web browser program.

2. Click in the browser’s Address field.

3. Enter the MKP’s IP address in the browser’s Address field.

If the local system administrators have not changed the value, the factory-specified default, 192.168.254.253, is the correct value for this field.

4. If you want the browser to display a page other than the

default page (such as a custom page that you have created and uploaded), enter a slash (/) and the file name to open.

The browser’s Address field should display the address in the following format: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/ {optional_file_name.html}.

The following characters are invalid in file names: {space} + ~ , @ = ‘ [ ] { } < > ’ “ ; : | \ and ?.

5. Press the keyboard Enter key. The MKP checks to see if it

is password protected. If the MKP is not password protected, proceed to step 7. If the MKP is password protected, the MKP downloads the

Enter Network Password page (figure 5-1).

Figure 5-1 — Enter Network Password page

A User Name entry is not required.

6. Click in the Password field and type in the appropriate

administrator or user password. Click the OK button.

7. The MKP checks several possibilities, in the following

order, and then responds accordingly: a. Does the address include a specific file name, such as

10.13.156.10/file_name.html? If so, the MKP downloads that HTML page.

b. Is there a file in the MKP’s memory that is named

“index.html”? If so, the MKP downloads “index.html” as the default startup page.

c. If neither of the above conditions is true, the MKP

downloads the factory-installed default startup page, “nortxe_index.html” (figure 5-2), also known as the System Status page.

System Status Page

The System Status page (figure 5-2) provides an overall view of the status of the MKP, including various IP addresses, the status of the Host and Switch RS-232 ports, and the voltage. The System Status page is the default page that the switcher downloads when you connect to the MKP. Access the System Status page from other MKP HTML web pages by clicking the Status tab.

System Settings Page

You can change most of the IP parameters on the System Settings page (figure 5-3). Click the Configuration tab or the System Settings link on the left of the Port Settings, Password, or Firmware Upgrade page to download the System Status page.

Figure 5-3 — System Settings page

The page is divided into three sections: IP Settings, Switcher Control Settings, and Date/Time Settings. There are three types of controls on the System Settings page: simple fields with no drop boxes, fields with drop boxes, and radio buttons.

Most IP protocol variables, such as the Unit Name, IP Address, Gateway IP address, Subnet Mask, and Switcher IP Address are presented in simple fields.

Most non-IP switcher variables and time and date variables are presented in fields with drop boxes.

On/off and multiple choice selections are radio buttons. All changes made on the System Settings must be confirmed by

clicking the Submit button in the appropriate section. Clicking the Cancel button abandons the changes.

IP Settings section

Unit Name field

The Unit Name field contains the locally-assigned name of the MKP. This name field can be changed to any valid name, up to 24 alphanumeric characters.

The following characters are invalid in the unit name: + ~ , @ = ‘ [ ] { } < > ’ “ ; : | \ and ?.

DHCP radio buttons

The DHCP On radio button directs the MKP to ignore any entered IP addresses and to obtain its IP address from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server (if the network is DHCP capable). The DHCP Off radio button turns DHCP off. Contact the local system administrator.

IP Address field

The IP Address field contains the IP address of the MKP. This value is encoded in the MKP’s flash memory.

Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric subfields (octets) separated by dots (periods). Each octet can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes, up to 3 digits total per field, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.

The factory-installed default address is 192.168.254.253, but if this conflicts with other equipment at your installation, you can change the IP address to any valid value.

IP address changes can cause conflicts with other equipment. Only local system administrators should change IP addresses.

Gateway IP Address field

The Gateway IP Address field identifies the address of the gateway to the switcher’s to be used if the MKP and the server are not on the same subnet.

The gateway IP address has the same validity rules as the MKP’s IP address. The default is 000.000.000.000.

Subnet Mask field

The Subnet Mask field is used to determine whether the MKP is on the same subnet as the switcher ’s server when you are subnetting. The default is 255.255.000.000.

MAC Address field

The Media Access Control (MAC) Address is hardcoded in the MKP and cannot be changed.

Switcher Settings section

MKP Connection Priority settings

Click the appropriate radio button to select among:

• The Ethernet (IP) port to issue commands to the connected switcher

• The MKP as primary (its Switch RS-232 port connected to the switcher)

• The MKP as secondary (the MKP controls the switcher through another MKP)

Host Control Port settings

If the RS-232 radio button is selected in the Switcher Control Method box, click the MKP 2000 or Control System Pass Through radio button to select that function for the Host RS-232 port.

• MKP 2000 selected — Commands received on the Host RS-232 port are executed by the MKP.

• Pass Through selected — Commands received on the Host RS-232 port are forwarded to the connected switcher via the Switch RS-232 port.

If the IP radio button is selected in the Switcher Control Method box, the Host Control Port Settings selections are grayed out and unavailable.

Switcher IP settings

If the connected matrix switcher is Ethernet enabled, its IP address and password (if assigned) can be entered in these fields. The address and password are required for the MKP and the matrix switcher to communicate via their RJ-45 LAN connections. The default IP address value is 000.000.000.000.

If the Secondary MKP Connection Priority is selected, this section and all of the selections within it are labeled “Primary MKP” rather than “Switcher”.

Switcher Size settings

The MKP cannot determine the matrix size of the switcher to which it is connected. You must use the Switcher Size drop boxes to specify the number of inputs and outputs.

When creating ties from the front panel, if an input or output outside the available range for this MKP or the connected matrix switcher is selected, the LED display shows N-A.

Authorized inputs and authorized outputs

You can use the Authorized Inputs and Authorized Outputs drop boxes to narrow the number of inputs and outputs that are controllable from the MKP.

When creating ties from the front panel, if an input or output outside the available range for this MKP or the connected matrix switcher is selected, the LED display shows N-A.

Front panel configuration lock

Click the appropriate radio button to select the Unlocked or Locked to disable or enable the MKP control panel.

Date/Time Settings fields

The Date/Time Settings fields provide a location for viewing and setting the time functions.

If setting the time, set the local time. The Zone variable allows you to then enter the offset from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

The Zone field identifies the standard time zone selected and displays the amount of time, in hours and minutes, that the local time varies from the GMT international time reference.

When daylight savings time is turned on, the switcher automatically updates its internal clock between Standard Time and Daylight Savings Time in the spring and fall on the date that the time change occurs in the United States of America, Brazil, or Europe (depending on the radio button selected). When Daylight Savings Time is turned off, the switcher does not adjust its time reference.

Port (RS-232) Settings Page

The Port Settings page (figure 5-4) allows you to configure the MKP’s two (Host and Switch) RS-232 ports. Access the Port Settings page by clicking the Configuration tab and then the Port Settings link on the left side of the System Settings page.
