INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 

 

MRCKPSP 

Multi-Room Controller, Keypad Splitter 

 

DESCRIPTION 

The MRCKPSP provides the installer with the ability to wire two keypads to one zone without daisy-
chaining the keypads in the zone. This makes pre-wiring instructions an easier task by allowing the 
installer to “home-run” all keypad cables. Plus, the MRCKPSP comes with an additional IR receiver 
input/output connection. 
 
The MRCKPSP can be used with the following products.

BASIC INSTALLATION - MRC44, MRAUDIO4X4, BXAUDIO4X4  

The MRCKPSP is designed to easily connect two keypads in a zone. Figure 1 shows a 
recommended application. The power jumper must be set to “INT”. This enables the multi-room 
controller to power the primary and secondary keypads.

Figure 1 

The primary keypad must have both the “secondary” and “zone termination” jumpers removed. The 
secondary keypad must have both the “secondary” and “zone termination” jumpers installed. The 
distance between the MRCKPSP to the MRC44 Keypads is 250 feet maximum. The distance 
between the MRCKPSP and the multi-room controller is less than 15 feet.
