• Source Selection Buttons: These buttons select the source for
listening/control in the given room. The buttons shown in the
illustration to the left are pre-assembled. Each keypad is supplied with
a kit of additional buttons, which include: DSS 2, SAT, SAT 2, FM 2,
AM, TUNER, TV, DVD, VCR, and HDRIVE. Refer to the
disassembly view in the latest version of the keypad Operations &
Installation Guide (Doc. 6200) for instructions to replace source
buttons.
A solid LED indicates that the source is selected and can be controlled.
A blinking LED indicates that a source is in use by another room and
cannot be controlled Refer to “Priority Override” on page 19 for an
exception.
If a source is selected and has a solid LED, pressing the button again
issues the NEXT1 command to that device.
• Previous/Next Buttons: These buttons control the selected source
(unless the source LED is blinking, refer to “Priority Override” on page
19).
Press and release the Prev/Next buttons to send the PREV1/NEXT1
commands to the selected source. Press and hold the Prev/Next buttons
for about one second to send the PREV2/NEXT2 commands to the
selected source.
To change the NEXT and PREV commands for a given device, refer to
the “Audio Properties” subsection of “Step 2: Add Sources” on page 11
for details.
Priority Override
The source button LEDs blink if another room has control priority over the selected
source. This means that this room can listen to the source, but cannot control it.
If another room has control over the current source, control can be taken from the
other room by pressing and holding the source button for about two seconds.
Audio Configuration
Default Settings:
Bass – 50%
Treble – 50%
Balance – 50 % (centered)
Min Volume – 30%
Max Volume – 70%
Startup Volume – 35%
Loudness - off
The function keypads provide additional functionality for configuring both the room
and source settings. Room settings include properties such as bass, treble, and
balance, and only affect the room from which they are adjusted. Source settings are
the input gain on the CNX-PAD8A for each source, allowing the volume level of
each source to be normalized relative to one another. Adjusting the input gain for a
source affects the volume of that source in all rooms. Audio properties such as
volume, bass, treble, and balance are set to Crestron default settings. Therefore,
these properties need to be adjusted for personal preference. The default settings are
listed to the left of this paragraph.
Under normal operation, the keypads operate as described in “System Operation” on
page 18. In order to adjust the room or source settings, the appropriate mode, as
described in the following subsections, must be entered.
