The Source Keypad creates the ultimate media control experience by providing
real-time system status, menu-driven control options and source metadata with its
vertically mounted high-resolution color LCD. Menu options include system source
selection, M6 Internal Tuner Presets with frequency, iPod® menus and metadata as
well as a variety of Keypad setup options.
The real beauty of the Source Keypad is that it is so easy to operate. A Scroll Wheel
and Select Button allow navigation through and selection of the displayed menu
options. Once a source has been selected, 7 back-lit programmable hard keys
provide source control and on-screen menu navigation for sources such as CD
players, media servers, etc. These buttons have all of the programmability expected
of a Proficient Keypad, with each button being able to initiate single IR commands,
RS232 commands, Proficient M4 & M6 Internal Commands and macros in each of up
to three tiers of functionality.
Volume is controlled with a back-lit control knob that features a series of LEDs that
give a visual indication of the volume setting.
The Source Keypad is designed specifically for use with the Proficient M4 and M6.
They can be mixed and matched with Proficient PMK Keypads and run on the same
CAT5 wire used for PMKs. The Source Keypad includes a J-box Mounting Bracket that
allows installation in most standard 2-gang low-voltage new construction and some
retro-fit electrical boxes. This design philosophy allows The Source Keypads to be
retrofit to upgrade existing M4 & M6 installations.
Though parts of this manual cover The Source Dock and The Source DockAdapter
for incorporating iPod and additional sources, the Source Keypad does not require
these components for installation and operation. The Source Keypad can be
installed without the Source Dock and Source Dock Adapter and used purely as
an upgrade to PMKs in M4 & M6 Systems. The Source Keypad is programmed with
Proficient Editor Programming Software and follows procedures similar to those
used with PMK Keypads. All M4 & M6 System commands, IR Library commands and
RS232 commands previously saved in Proficient Editor can be used to program the
Source Keypad.

WIRING
The Source Keypad requires connection to a Procient M4 or M6 to operate. All system wiring
considerations for an M4 or M6 system should be followed as described in the M4 or M6 Quick
Start Guides. The information below will only detail those parts of an M4 or M6 System that
pertain to the wiring requirements for connecting the Source Keypad, the Source Dock and
The Source Dock.
Note: The following wires should be installed during system pre-wire. Other connections will
be made at the time of installation and are described in the “Connections” section.
THE SOURCE KEYPAD
CAT5 - Pull home-runs of CAT5 from each Source Keypad to the system head-end.
Maximum Length: 500'
Note: All eight conductors of the CAT5 must be connected for proper signal strength on
500' of cable.
SPEAKER MUTE RELAY
The Speaker Mute Relay is used when multiple rooms are grouped to one zone (i.e.
Master Bedroom and Master Bathroom). When used and programmed, only the speakers
matched to the keypad will turn on/o (i.e. turn on the bathroom keypad only, the
bathroom speakers will turn on).
The room speakers wire through the Speaker Mute Relay and a two conductor wire from
the Speaker Mute Relay to the PMK or The Source Keypad relay connections.
Standard Wire - Pull two-conductor 24AWG or heavier, stranded, non-shielded wire from
any Source Keypad location to where a Procient Speaker Mute Relay will be installed.
Maximum Length: 1000'
THE SOURCE DOCK ADAPTER
No pre-wire necessary. Locate with an M4 or M6 for Connections.
THE SOURCE DOCK
No pre-wire necessary if located with an M4 or M6. If in a a remote location (i.e. kitchen,
bedroom, living room, etc.), run 1 CAT5 from The Source Dock Adapter location to The
Source Dock location. If wire run is greater than 250', a Procient IR Power Supply 1.2A
will be required at The Source Dock location.

SOURCE KEYPAD HARD BUTTON CONFIG
As received from the factory, the Source Keypad has a preinstalled set of buttons that match
the default button conguration in Procient Editor. This default may not match the system
being installed. The Source Keypad comes with a set of alternate buttons. The hard button
keycaps can be changed on the keypads and in Procient Editor to match the product being
installed. To change the hard button keycaps:
1. With the keypad disconnected from the system, carefully insert a small at head
screwdriver into the Faceplate Release Tabs Slots (1) as shown in Figure 7. With the
screwdriver inserted, slowly twist the screwdriver and pull down in the direction shown
(2) until the Faceplate Tabs release from the body.
Figure 7 Faceplate Release Tabs
2. With both tabs released, carefully pull the bottomof the faceplate up and away from
the keypad as shown in Figure 8 until it stops moving freely. Carefully pull the top of the
faceplate clear of the keypad to remove. Do not touch, pinch, poke or otherwise contact
the ex board circuit connected to the top of the LCD. Damage to the ex board will
disable the LCD.
Figure 8 Removing The Faceplate

Note: It is highly recommended that The Source Keypad be installed at a height of 56" on
center. This provides the best overall position for optimum LCD viewing angle. This should be
discussed with the homeowner prior to installation to avoid rework, should the homeowner
nd this undesirable.
New Construction
The Source Keypad should be mounted in a standard 2-gang new construction box whenever
possible. The keypad itself has a thin prole, but the Bezel Tabs and the Mounting Bracket
Bezel Tab Clips require some additional clearance. Some new construction and many retrot
boxes do not provide adequate clearance. Checking the t of an assembled keypad, (bezel,
keypad and mounting bracket), is recommended prior to installation of the J-boxes to avoid
problems after the wall board has been installed.
Retrot
Although use of retro boxes is not recommended, they can be used in some cases. If using
a retro box, it will probably be necessary to hone out part of the box to provide height and
depth clearance for the Mounting Bracket Bezel Tab Clips and Bezel Tabs. Do not modify the
clips or the tabs as this may adversely aect how well the bezel stays in place.
Figure 10 Mounting The Source Keypad
Mounting Bracket
The Source Keypad cannot be installed without the Mounting Bracket. The keypad is held in
place with the Keypad Locking Tabs and Keypad Angle Tabs. The Bracket should be mounted
to a standard 2-gang new construction box as shown in Figure 10. When installing the
Mounting Bracket, be sure the bracket is positioned as shown in Figure 10. The keypad cannot
be mounted if the bracket is upside down. If using a retro box, see the “Retrot” section
above. When necessary, though not recommended, the Mounting Bracket can be used
without a J-box. When installing a keypad without a J-box, be sure to use drywall anchors to
provide a more durable and secure mount for the bracket.

INSTALLATION
THE SOURCE KEYPAD
With the Mounting Bracket installed, the Source Keypad can be mounted. (Make and secure
wire connections as described in the “Connections” section prior to mounting the keypad.)
Keypad Angle
There are two options for mounting The Source Keypad. One is a ush installation with the
keypad at to the wall surface, and the other is with the lower portion of the keypad sloping
away from the wall at about a 15˚ angle. The angle mount creates a special cosmetic appeal
and can provide an improved LCD viewing angle.
Flush Mount
To install the Source Keypad ush (at) to the wall surface:
1. Slide the lower part of the keypad into the mounting bracket and position the Keypad
Angle Tabs into the rear channel of the Keypad Angle Tab Slots.
2. Carefully press the upper corners of the keypad with both thumbs until the Keypad
Locking Tabs click into place. (The keypad will ‘lift’ slightly in the bracket when
positioning the Locking Tabs).
Angle Mount
To install the Source Keypad with lower portion angled away from the wall surface at
approximately 15˚:
1. Slide the lower part of the keypad into the mounting bracket and position the Keypad
Angle Tabs into the forward channel of the Keypad Angle Tab Slots.
2. Carefully press the upper corners of the keypad with both thumbs until the Keypad
Locking Tabs click into place. (The keypad will ‘lift’ slightly in the bracket when
positioning the Locking Tabs).
Note: In an angle mount, the keypad is not secure until the bezel has been installed. The bezel
will hold the Locking Tabs in place and secure the keypad to the bracket. Prior to installing
the bezel in an angle mount, be careful if operating the keypad and avoid incidental contact
to prevent the keypad from falling out of the bracket and possibly damaging the keypad, the
wires or the wall.
Bezel Installation
With the keypad in place, carefully align the Bezel Tabs with the Bezel Tab Clips on the
Mounting Bracket. Apply even pressure around the bezel to slide it into place. The bezel is
made of a pliable material that will ‘form t’ to the wall surface for a clean nish.
Removing The Source Keypad
Take care when removing the bezel to not scratch the wall surface or tear wallpaper. Use a very
small, thin tool or nger nails, to carefully pull the sides of the bezel away from the wall surface.
To remove the keypad, pinch the top corners of the keypad, and carefully pull slightly up and
away from the Mounting Bracket. Be careful not to drop the keypad or pull hard enough to
stress the CAT5 cable.

24
Page 25
PROGRAMMING
M4/M6 amplier and zone speakers. Adapter Aux In provides the same exibility for a
source connected to the Adapter. There can only be one Aux In connected per source,
but this allows the input capability of the M4 Controller to expand to 12 sources and the
M6 Controller to 14.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The sources connected to the Dock and Dock Adapter Aux Inputs
are only selectable via the Source Keypads. They are not available to PMKs and cannot be
selected by IR remote commands.
For the purpose of the example, the CD Changer that was connected to Source 6 on the
M4/M6 has now been replaced by an iPod, making the iPod available to all zones. The
CD Changer is actually dedicated to the Family Room, where coincidentally, the Source
is being installed. The CD Changer will be congured as the Source 6 Option Input in
Procient Editor (Figure 19) and connected to the Dock Aux In in the Family Room. All
zones will have access and control of the iPod (Source 6). Only zones with the Source
Keypads will have access and control of the cable box (Source 6a) which will appear in
the Source Main Menu as a regular source. Further, as an option, the CD Changer can be
unchecked in Zone Setup, for any zones other than the Family Room that get the Source
Keypads, to keep the CD Changer dedicated to the Family Room. In addition to dedicated
control, this will allow the CD Changer audio to feed through the M4/M6 amp and zone
speakers for the Family Room. See the “Connections” section for additional information.
9. In the Name block, type in the source name for the device being connected to the Aux
In. This name will appear in the Source List on the Source Display, so be sure to use a name

ADDING A SOURCE KEYPAD TO AN EXISTING M4/M6 PROJECT
The Procient Editor programming instructions provided with the Source are intended to
provide direction for adding a Source Keypad, multiple Source Keypads, Source Dock(s) and
Source Dock Adapter(s), to existing M4 or M6 Systems. If conguring a new system, start
with the “Programming With Procient Editor” section of the Procient Editor Advanced Programming Guide for system conguration, source setup, power management, etc. Use this
manual for conguration and programming zones using the Source keypads.
If adding iPod(s), Source Dock(s) and Source Adapter(s), be sure to have followed all
instructions in the previous sections for incorporating those components, updating Source
Setup and Zone Setup for proper system conguration and performance. If only adding
sources or upgrading PMKs to Source Keypads, be sure to have followed all instructions for
connections and installation in the previous sections. When adding a Source Keypad to an
existing project, Procient Editor does some of the work automatically in identifying sources
and placing them in the Source Main Menu. This helps assure that proper control commands
will be associated with the right source. To add a Source Keypad:

PROGRAMMING THE VIRTUAL SOURCE KEYPAD
Virtual Source Keypad Window
When an unprogrammed the Source Keypad appears on screen, Procient Editor has already
loaded the M4/M6 Source Icons, to assist in keypad programming. By doing so, Procient
Editor reduces the possibility of accidental omission of sources or associating sources with
the wrong input. The Virtual Source Keypad Window displays the Zone Number and Keypad Address for reference. The Source Icons in the Source List have the same programming and
performance capabilities as source keys on PMKs. The dierence being, PMK source keys are
hard buttons that are pressed, The Source Keypad source keys are Virtual Buttons on The Source Keypad LCD that are selected with the Scroll Wheel and Click Button. The Source
Icons are programmed the same as any other key, by selecting the icon and double clicking
commands under the CMD M4/M6 Cmds Tab or CMD Library Tab. Programmed commands
appear in the Button Properties Window, consistent with Procient Editor programming.
Note: The Scroll Wheel, Click Button and Menu Key are not programmable. They have un-
removable factory programmed functions for scrolling lists and menus on the LCD (via the
Scroll Wheel), selecting items from those lists and menus (via the Click Button) and returning
to either The Source Main Menu or selecting iPod Menus depending upon the current Source
function (via the Menu Button). When a source other than iPod is selected, a press of the
Menu Key returns the display to the Source Main Menu. When iPod is selected, and the iPod
is playing, a press of the Menu Key returns the display to the previous iPod Menu level. In any
iPod mode, a press & hold of the Menu Button will return the display to the Source Keypad
Main Menu.
Virtual Button List Window
When any source is selected on the Source Keypad, the information in the LCD will change
to the Virtual Buttons associated with that source. Any menu or list of commands associated
with controlling a particular device, or the system, can be congured for display.
31
Page 32
PROGRAMMING
The Virtual Button List Window is where these menus and lists of commands are created.
Virtually any command for any device that will be connected to an M4/M6 System can be
programmed to a Source Virtual Button. A pop-up tool allows creation of the Virtual Buttons
by simply typing in the name of the function, i.e. Play, Stop, Menu, Aspect Ratio, etc. Once the
Virtual Button has been created, any command from the Procient Editor Command Library
whether an M4/M6 Internal Command, IR command or RS232 command can be associated
with these Virtual Buttons. If the required IR or RS232 commands are not already in the
Library, they can be added by either learning the IR commands with the Procient Command Interface Module or by using the RS232 Command Properties Tool for creating and editing
RS232 commands. Refer to the Procient Editor Advanced Programming Guide sections “Learning IR Commands” and “RS232 Commands” for additional information.
As when programming any other key in Procient Editor, the commands associated with the
Virtual Buttons are displayed in the Button Properties Window. Virtual Buttons have the same
properties as PMK keys in that they can execute single commands, or macros and for truly
advanced applications access tiered commands as well.

6. Next is the Mute Button. The Volume Knob can be pushed in to execute a programmed
command or macro. It is recommended that the Knob press function be used for Zone
Mute. For this example, M4/M6 pre-amp zone mute will be used.
Figure 28Placing The Zone/Whole/House Mute Command
Right click the inside section of the Volume Knob. In the popup, if not already checked,
highlight and left click the Mute (Preamp) Key as shown in Figure 28. This will congure
the key for Zone and Whole House Mute and punch the commands to all banks. The key
will highlight green to indicate special whole-house functionality.
When this button is pressed for less than 2 seconds, the zone will mute. When it is
pressed again for less than 2 seconds, it will un-mute. When the Mute Key is pressed for
longer than 2 seconds, this initiates whole-house muting (all zones mute). When pressed
again for longer than 2 seconds, all zones are un-muted.
Power
7. Right click theSource Keypad Power Button. In the pop-up, if not already checked,
highlight and left click Zone Power O Key as shown in Figure 29. This will congure the
key for Zone and Whole House O and punch the commands to all banks. The key will
highlight green to indicate special whole-house functionality.
When the Power Key is pressed for less than 2 seconds, the local zone will turn o, and
typically, the common sources will stay on until the last zone is turned o. Additionally,
when the Power Key is pressed for longer than 2 seconds, this initiates whole house power o (all zones will turn o) and this action will typically also turn o the common
sources.

PROGRAMMING CONTROL OF SOURCES
The Source Keypad can be programmed to control any of the sources connected to an M4/M6
System by using either the Hard Keys or Virtual Buttons. Programming is consistent with standard
Procient Editor procedures. Hard Key programming should be for the most commonly used
commands, Play, Skip, Channel Up/Down, etc. Virtual Buttons can be programmed for control of
any source function for which an IR or RS232 command is available in the Command Library. For
example, if programming control of a CD Changer, commands for anything from random play to
direct disc selection can be setup as a Virtual Button.
Since the process is essentially the same for all sources, a general example using a CD Changer
will be used. Use the following instructions for other sources, by programming appropriate
commands by source.
Note: When used with a M6, the Source Keypad shows its powerful simplicity. The Preset channel frequencies and control commands for the M6 Internal Tuners are automatically displayed
on the Source LCD. This is a default function of the M6 and the Source Keypad. No programming
is necessary for control of the M6 Internal Tuners when controlled with the Source Keypad.
PROGRAMMING HARD KEYS
1. If not already open, left click the CMD Library Tab. From the Brands Pull-Down either
left click the pull-down arrow and scroll the list for the CD Changer Brand being used
or left click the Brands Box and type in the name of the CD Changer Brand. Expand the
CD Tab by left clicking the ‘+’ sign or double left clicking the CD Icon. In some cases, a
subdirectory of CD commands will appear. Some manufacturers have multiple code
groups for certain devices. A bit of trial and error may be necessary to determine which
code group is correct. Typically, testing commands such as power, play and stop will
indicate the proper code group. Sometimes a visual inspection of the list can be helpful
to see if certain special commands are available in one list or another. If any commands
are not available, they can be learned into Procient Editor. If it is necessary to learn
commands, refer to the “Learning IR Commands” section of the Procient Editor Advanced Programming Guide.
2. Left click the CD Source Icon on the Virtual Keypad to select CD. It will highlight.

PROGRAMMING
3. Left click the Arrow Up Button. Under CMD Library, double left click the Next Disc
Command. (Program for next disc if using a CD Changer otherwise select another
function such as Fast Forward or other appropriate command.)
4. Left Click the Arrow Down Button. Under CMD Library, double left click Previous Disc.
(Program for previous disc if using a CD Changer otherwise select another function such
as Reverse Play or other appropriate command.)
5. Left click the Previous Track Button. Under CMD Library, double left click Chapter/Skip
Down.
6. Left click the Next Track Button. Under CMD Library, double left click Chapter/Skip Up.
7. Left click the Play/Pause Button. Under CMD Library, double left click Play or Play/Pause
depending upon code availability.
This programming will provide basic transport control using the Hard Keys. To program
additional commands, Virtual Buttons can be added as needed.
PROGRAMMING VIRTUAL BUTTONS
Note: The default functionality of the Source Keypad when used with iPod, replicates the
genius of the iPod Menu system on the Source LCD. Therefore, no Virtual Buttons can be
congured for use with iPod. Likewise, some other devices, (Servers, XM Tuners) can be
congured for 'direct control' using a Procient Control Module, that allows RS232 control of
appropriately featured products. Some of these types of devices have been pre-congured in
Procient Editor (Source Setup/Option). Virtual Buttons cannot be programmed for any device
selected in Source Setup/Option.
8. With CD selected on the Virtual Keypad, right click inside the Virtual Button List Window.
9. If only adding one Virtual Button, highlight and left click Add New Menu Item. In the
New Item Window, type in the function and left click OK. Skip to Step 11.
10. If adding multiple Virtual Buttons, right click inside the Virtual Button List Window,
highlight and left click Add Multiple New Menu Items. In the New Source Menu Items Window, type in the rst function name in the Enter Item Name Block. Either left click
the >> Button or press the return key on the PC keyboard to add the function to the
Item Names List. (Refer to Figure 30) To remove items from the ‘Add New’ list, highlight
the entry and left click the << Button. When all functions have been added to the Item Names List, left click OK. To remove items from the Virtual Button List, right click the
item, then highlight and left click Delete Item.
11. To associate IR or RS232 commands to the Virtual Buttons, if not already open, left click
the CMD Library Tab. Select the Brand and Device being programmed as described in Step 1 above.
12. Left click the Virtual Button to be programmed. Double left click the IR or RS232
command in the CMD Library. A red asterisk will appear next to the function in the
Virtual Button List to indicate an associated command or macro. The command will
appear in the Button Properties Window. (Refer to Figure 31) Repeat for all Virtual
Buttons.
