TABLE OF CONTENTS / pRODUCT OVERVIEW
Overview
The MDK-C5 keypad is a beautiful wall-mounted interface
for C-Series controllers. It features a gray scale screen,
menus and navigation buttons to easily nd and control
music sources and to make changes to system settings
and room audio levels. The alarm and sleep timer add extra
functionality.
This double-gang keypad oers responsive hard buttons
to access power on/o, music pause, volume up/down,
and menu shortcuts. The OK button in the center activates
a menu choice and the navigation buttons allow you to
move through menus and lists, as well as provide source
controls. The buttons' LED brightness is adjustable and can
be dimmed at the owner's discretion. It also supports IR
reception for use with a remote control.
The gray scale LCD screen displays real-time information
such as Playlist, Channel, Station, Artist, Song Title, Genre,
and more from the RNET audio sources.
The MDK-C5 is designed to control a C-Series system such
as the MCA-C5 controller amplier multiroom audio system.
It controls Russound source equipment, including the SMS3
Smart Media Server, iBridge™ Dock and Bay, and the ST2
Tuner with AM/FM and/or satellite radio.
Most controller and source setup functions are performed
through SCS-C5 programming software; however, a few
installation steps are completed through the MDK-C5
menus, including setting time and date, keypad brightness
and contrast, and adjusting room audio properties. The
MDK-C5’s installation screen provides a gateway for online
support for the system when needed.
