Connecting an Occupancy Sensor to the TOGL Pin

The KIT-400R TOGL pin function is defined via the KIT-400R OSD menu (see Defining

the TOGGLE PIN on KIT-400R on page 23). By default, the display toggles on or off when

momentarily connected. By setting the Toggle function, you can set the pin for level-triggering
rather than edge-triggering (i.e., constant contact connection rather than momentary
connection), allowing, for example, connection to an occupancy sensor that triggers the
toggle commands.

Instead of a push-to-make switch, TOGGLE may be configured to operate with a standard
SPST switch or for TTL level detection (for example, to use with an occupancy sensor).

You can use an occupancy sensor to turn on the display and auto sync off to turn it off once it
is not used, as described in the following example:

• An occupancy sensor is connected to the TOGL pin.

• The TOGL pin is set to ON (see Defining the TOGGLE PIN on KIT-400R on page 23) so

that the display is turned on when the occupancy sensor detects the presence of people
in the room. (Set the sensor to short the TOGL pin to ground upon detecting occupancy).

• Auto SYNC OFF is set to Enable (see Setting Sleep Mode on page 21) so that when the
room is no longer in use, the display turns off 2 minutes after an input signal is no longer
detected.

You can also set the TOGL pin to OFF so that when the sensor detects no people in the room
the display turns off. (Set the sensor to short the TOGL pin to ground when occupancy is not
detected).

Wiring RJ-45 Connectors

This section defines the HDBT pinout, using a straight pin-to -pin cable with RJ-45 connectors.

For HDBT cables, it is recommended that the cable ground shielding be connected/soldered
to the connector shield.

Use the Automation page to access Kramer Maestro V1.5 room automation. Maestro is a
powerful tool that enables you to configure single-trigger room element automation scenarios
without the need for complicated programming. To use room automation, you need to define
triggers that, upon an event, will execute scripts which include a sequence of actions
(commands, which can appear in different scenarios) that will be carried out via any defined
ports.

Download the Kramer Maestro User Manual from the Kramer web site at

www.kramerav.com/downloads/KIT-401 to learn how to use Kramer Maestro.

Note that all the ports, actions and triggers that are relevant to KIT-401 are included in the

Kramer Maestro, as well as ports, actions and triggers that are relevant to other Kramer
