INTRODUCTION
THE WATERPAD™, an adaptation of the original Smart Pad
™ keypad system, is the world's first wall
2
mounted, fully programmable and configurable waterproof keypad. Now, outdoor, pool side, bathroom,
sauna and other high moisture installations can be handled with confidence. With the ease of the Dragon
Drop-IR™ software system, the Waterpad is fully programmable into four basic keypad configurations. In
addition, a large selection of button icon labels permits configurations to match the IR source and function
commands of virtually any A/V system.
Controllers
FEATURES
• Operates in high moisture environments in humidities up to 100% over a temperate range of 0° F (-18°C)
to 140° F (60° C).
• Unit is submersible in pure water in depths up to 6 inches or so. (The pressure of additional depths may
close the keys, preventing proper operation). See CAUTION note below.
• To maximize flexibility, the Waterpad is available in one, four, six and eight bank versions.
• A selection of 128 icon labels are included for affixing to source and function button locations.
• The membrane pad has 20 embossed buttons to which the icons are affixed, by the installer, with no
noticeable seam. Icons are peeled off a paper backing exposing an attaching adhesive.
• Icon color is black on white. Volume and Mute are also available in blue, if it is desired to highlight these
basic functions.
• The 4, 6 and 8 memory bank versions have LED indicators on each source button.
1
• Two tiers of memory per button. Applies to both source select and control function buttons.
• Sequence commands, including 1 to 30 second delays, can be programmed under any button (including
the 2nd tier) without using up button spaces anywhere else on the keypad.
• Status input permits source buttons to light with +12V representing a system power ON condition as well
as the selected source.
• Intelligent Power Management. The first command in a sequence, normally a power command, will not
be sent if the status input is high (+12V). This prevents the sending of an unintended power command
when the system or zone is already on, thus preventing unintended shutdown when switching sources.
• All Waterpad programming is done using Xantech's exclusive Dragon Drop-IR™ software system
®
(available separately as Model DD4). It is a Windows
Xantech Smart Pad
derivative keypad systems. It allows the use of Xantech and/or installer prepared
2 or 3
based program that permits rapid configuring of
command libraries. It also permits the installer to keep computer files of all the client's keypad
configurations.
NOTE: IR commands
cannot

PROM within the Waterpad learning module. No
backup batteries are used or needed!
• Memory size is 64k Bits (8k Bytes)
• Xantech IR Receivers and other keypads can be used on the same IR bus with the Waterpad.
• The Waterpad mounts into standard 2-gang wall "J" boxes, for either new or retrofit applications.
CAUTION: While the WATERPAD™ is submersible, it was primarily designed to withstand high humidity
or wet areas where water may be splashed on it frequently. If you have an application where you wish
to place it under water, be sure the water is free of any corrosive agents such as chlorine. Also, do not
submerse it deeper than 6 inches.
WATERPAD™ VERSIONS
To maximize the number of possible system applications, the Waterpad is supplied in four basic versions.
Each are defined and illustrated below with typical button icons applied. You may choose the icons and
place them in any arrangement you wish, to best fit taste and application. The only exception to this are
the source buttons. These are always in the right two columns and are identified by the small LED (source)
indicators in the upper left corner of each button. Each version includes an internal learning module, an 8terminal block, hardware, and an assortment of 128 button icons.

INSTALLATION
When installing the Waterpad, we suggest that you proceed with the following order of events:
1. Determine the client's system components and needs in detail.
2. Determine the number of source components and function commands needed.
3. Pick the Waterpad version that best suits these needs, e.g. WPK-1, WPK-4, WPK-6 or WPK-8.
4. Using Dragon Drop IR™, place the button Icons in the desired locations on the virtual Waterpad and
program all buttons.
5. Transfer the program to the actual Waterpad and test all button commands for proper operation
before
affixing the real button Icons.
6. Affix the icons to all buttons.
7. Attach the inter-room cable to the terminal strip and test all button commands again for proper
operation.
8. Mount the keypad to the wall surface.
A Typical 4-Source Configuration
The following example will serve to illustrate this process. Suppose
a client wants to control an AM/FM stereo system with a Waterpad,
as in Fig. 3, from an outdoor location and that he has the following
equipment and system requirements:
1. An AM/FM receiver and 4 sources: TUNER (AM/FM), two CD
changers and a cassette TAPE deck.
2. When a source button is pressed, it turns on the AM/FM
receiver and the associated source.
3. The Waterpad must have the following function commands
for each source:
Fig. 1 4-Source Waterpad - Model WPK-4
TUNER: Tuner Up/Down (scroll of preset stations), AM/FM
(select).
CD 1 and CD 2: Play, Track Forward/Reverse, Pause, Stop, Disk+, Disk– (select).
TAPE: Play Forward, Play Reverse, Fast Forward/Rewind, Pause, Stop.
This is the basic client specification for this application of the Waterpad™.

The next step is to determine which Waterpad version and
keypad button icons are required to perform this job, as follows:

1. Since there are 4 sources, 4 banks will be required. We will
need the WPK-4 Waterpad version as shown in Fig. 1.

indicators. These LEDs are programmed at the factory to
operate depending on the Waterpad version you ordered.
That is, on the WPK-1 none operate, on the WPK-4, the upper
4 operate, on the WPK-6 the upper 6 operate and on the
Fig. 2 Typical 4-Source Button Assignment
WPK-8, all 8 operate. On the versions where the LEDs do not
operate, the buttons work as normal function keys. When you apply function icons to them, the
unused LEDs are covered up as in Fig. 2.
2. The next step is to determine exactly what button icons are required to identify the source and control
functions needed.
3. We begin this process by assigning the source buttons first; CD1, TUNER, CD2 and TAPE. See Fig.
2. We do this by using Dragon Drop IR™. You may also pencil out your button designations on the
blank Waterpad illustrations at the end of this manual prior to using Dragon Drop if you wish.
4. Next, we assign the function control buttons based on the list of functions given in the client
specification, in the same manner.
5. Now that all the buttons have been assigned (as shown in Fig. 2), it is necessary to memorize the IR
commands and do the programming. Refer to the Dragon Drop IR™ Installation and Programming
Instructions for this process.
NOTE: In this example, the button assignments are placed in what is considered an ergonomically
pleasing arrangement. You may, however, assign the buttons in any arrangement you wish, to best
fit taste and application. The only exception to this is the 4 source buttons. These are permanently
assigned to the upper positions in the two right columns.

9. If the system functions correctly, the button icons can then be applied, as shown in Fig. 4. Finally, the
Waterpad is mounted to the wall as shown in Fig. 6, 7, 8 & 9.
NOTE: The needed button icons are included with the Waterpad.
Applying Icons To The Waterpad Buttons
Each version of the Waterpad is supplied with 128 button icons on two mylar sheets. An assortment of both
source and function icons are provided and were chosen to cover practically any conceivable installation.
You will note that an extra set of Volume and Mute icons are provided in blue. Also, an extra set of function
symbol icons (play, stop, pause, etc.) are provided in grey. Use these icons to enhance visibility under low
light conditions or for color coding of functions or taste considerations. For indoor applications, you would
normally use the more sedate white icons.
CAUTION: Before applying the icons, be sure to do the following first:
a) Complete all configuring and programming using the Dragon Drop IR software system.
b) Transfer the programmed data to the "real" Waterpad.
c) Print out a copy of the virtual programmed Waterpad from Dragon Drop and keep it nearby for
reference.
d) Test each button on the "real" Waterpad (without the icons attached) and be sure it executes all
desired commands.
e) Be sure the membrane surfaces of the Waterpad, your hands and the icon sheets, are completely
dry and free of any grease or dirt.
Controllers
1. Carefully peel off a desired icon from the sheets. Try not to touch too much of the adhesive surface.
2. Align it very carefully within the rectangular embossed button area on the membrane of the Waterpad
and press it into place. See Fig. 4.
Be sure you have the correct button location. Use the printed virtual Waterpad as your guide.
CAUTION: You must be very certain that you have the correct location and that the icon is aligned
correctly. The adhesive
is a waterproof type and
is very aggressive. If you
have to pull it up to reposition it, it may not bond

Power Management
Like the Smart Pad
, the Waterpad™ has the ability, via the STATUS terminal, to prevent unintended
2 or 3
power turnoffs when power commands are sequenced with source commands.
• The Waterpad stops the first command in a sequence (the power command) when the STATUS terminal
is high (+12V DC = ON).
• Conversely, when the system is OFF, the first command (power) will be sent since the STATUS terminal
is low (0V).
• This assumes that +12V and 0V, representing a system ON and OFF condition, is applied to the STATUS
terminal (see Fig. 5)
• See Fig. 3 for STATUS connections in a typical system.
NOTE: If power management is not used (i.e. 3-wire hookups), a short jumper must be connected between
the STATUS and +12V terminals (see Fig. 5).
This powers the source button LEDs so they will come on with the selected bank. In this case, you must
put the system power command under an ON/OFF button (not under the source buttons). Also, source
commands must be placed twice under each source button in a 2-command sequence.

turn-on.
MOUNTING
The Waterpad is designed to mount into most standard 2-gang "J" boxes in basically the same way as other
wall mounted decorator style components. The "J" boxes may be either of the new construction or retrofit
varieties. Consider the following when planning the mounting of the Waterpad:
• The Waterpad requires considerable room in the J-box.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If you encounter problems, review each of the following items and take corrective action as described. If
problems persist, contact Xantech Technical Support.
1. The Waterpad does not have RESTORE or CLEAR MEMORY buttons as does the
SmartPad
. How do I perform these functions on the Waterpad, if needed?
2 or 3
a) To perform the RESTORE function, simply remove the 12 VDC power from the unit for 10-15
seconds, then reapply. Programmed contents in the memory will not be disturbed.
b) To CLEAR MEMORY, remove power as above, but hold down any button on the keypad
continuously while reapplying power. Bear in mind that this process will erase all keypad
contents.
TM
2. The Waterpad has problems with the transfer of data from Dragon Drop IR
or execution of IR
commands after data transfer.
A corrupted or incorrectly learned IR code has been transferred to the Waterpad or a corrupted code
preexists in the Waterpad learning module.
a) Perform the RESTORE or CLEAR MEMORY function on the Waterpad, then repeat the transfer
TM
procedure from the Dragon Drop IR
.
b) If the problem persists, test all IR commands per item 1 in the TROUBLESHOOTING section of
TM
Dragon Drop IR
, replacing any defective commands. Then repeat step a) above.
For additional details on troubleshooting IR programming problems, refer to the TROUBLESHOOT-
TM
ING section of Dragon Drop IR
"Installation and Programming Instructions"
3. The screws that attach the decorator style cover plate over the Waterpad do not screw in fully,
preventing the cover plate from being tightened down.
The wall surface is interfering with the ends of the screws, preventing full tightening.
Clearance holes must be drilled in the wall surface to allow full travel of these screws. Follow the
procedure in step 2, under Mounting Procedure - Retrofit J-Box.
