Introduction
Installation and Connection
Operation
The McIntosh Model WK-2 Keypad is designed to re-
motely operate McIntosh A/V Control Centers, Preamplifi-
ers and Multizone Controllers. The WK-2 also includes an
IR Sensor which allows the IR Signal Commands from a
Remote Control to be passed onto the McIntosh A/V Con-
trol Centers, Preamplifiers and Multizone Controllers. The
Keypad allows Input Selection, Transport Functions, Tuner
Functions, and Volume Level Adjustments.
The WK-2 Keypad mounts in a standard two-gang wall
outlet box and connections are made using a RG59U or
RG6 Coax Cable (300ft max.) with “F” Connectors at both
ends. Connect the Coax Cable between the WK-2 and the
“F” Connector on a McIntosh A/V Control Center, Pream-
plifier, Multizone Controller or Integrated Amplifier. Up to
four keypads can be connected in parallel on the same co-
axial line. When the WK-2 is to be connected to a McIn-
tosh A/V Control Center that uses a Five Pin Terminal
Connector instead of the “F” Coax Connector, connect the
Center Conductor to Pin 4 and the Shield Conductor to Pin
5. Refer to figure 1.
Note: Before connecting the WK-2 Keypad to a McIntosh A/V
Control Center, Preamplifier, Multizone Controller or
Integrated Amplifier, make sure that the Main AC
POWER Switch is in the Off Position (or remove the
unit’s AC Plug from the AC Wall Outlet).
