Q: Can I use the PX-603 for outdoor areas?
A: This application is not recommended. The amplifier puts out 22 watts, which isn’t enough
for outdoor use most of the time. It is fine for a small pool house, cabana, or enclosed
porch though.
(See page 16)
Q: Will I be able to page into PX-603 rooms with a PDM? Can rooms be programmed for
paging independently from the main room of the zone?
A: Yes, paging is available in PX-603 rooms as long as the zone is programmed for paging.
Paging occurs in the same manner throughout the entire zone (i.e. Page when zone off,
page when zone on). PX-603 rooms page at the turn-on volume set for each room.
Q: Can PX-603 rooms be programmed into an ALL-ON group?
A: Yes. Programming of the main room determines what ALL-ON group the zone is part of,
and an additional programming screen allows the inclusion of PX-603 rooms in the group.
(See page 15)
Q: Why does the KP3 require 6 conductor wire?
A: The KP3 is essentially a hard-wired keypad. Communication with the PX-603 is electri-
cal; button presses are converted to data streams within the PX-603 and are then fed to the
PX-600 via the four wire bus.
(See pages 9-10)
Q: Can I use the PX-603 with an MRX?
A: No, the PX-603 is designed for use only with the PX-600. The MRX software has reached
the limit of its development potential.
Q: Can I use KP3 keypads in PX-600 main rooms?
A: No. They don’t have the ability to convert electrical connections into data.
Q: How do I set the KPS DIP switches to control the PX-603 rooms?
A: Switches 4 and 8, which were previously unused, address the KPS for use in PX-603
rooms. Switch 4 has a value of one, switch 8 has a value of two. Thus, for room one, set
DIP switch 4 up, for room two set switch 8 up, and for room three set 4 and 8 up.
Switches 4 and 8 down control the PX-600 main room.
(See page 12)
Q: Are there the same DIP switches on the KP3?
A: No. The KP3 has no DIP switches or processor board. There are three modular receptacles
on the rear of the PX-603, each dedicated to a stereo amplifier.
Q: Can PX-603 rooms be controlled from computer-based control systems like AMX and
Crestron?
A: Yes. Contact Audioaccess Technical Support for more information.
