Limited Two-Year Warranty

Proficient Audio Systems warrants to the original retail purchaser only that this product will

be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of two years, provided the

speaker was purchased from a Proficient Audio Systems Authorized Dealer.

Defective products must be shipped, prepaid and insured, together with proof of purchase,

to the Proficient Audio Systems Authorized Dealer from whom they were purchased, or to

Proficient Audio Systems at the address listed on this installation instruction manual. Freight

collect shipments will be refused. It is preferable to ship this product in the original shipping

container to lessen the chance of transit damage. In any case, the risk of loss or damage in transit

is to be borne by the purchaser.

If, upon examination at the Factory or Proficient Audio Systems Authorized Dealer, it is

determined that the unit was defective in materials or workmanship at any time during this

warranty period, Proficient Audio Systems or the Proficient Audio Systems Authorized Dealer

will, at its option, repair or replace this product at no additional charge, except as set forth

below. If this model is no longer available and can not be repaired effectively, Proficient Audio

Systems, at its sole option, may replace the unit with a current model of equal or greater value.

In some cases where a new model is substituted, a modification to the mounting surface may

be required. If mounting surface modification is required, Proficient Audio Systems assumes

no responsibility or liability for such modification. All replaced parts and product become the

property of Proficient Audio Systems. Products replaced or repaired under this Warranty will

be returned to the original retail purchaser, within a reasonable time, freight prepaid.

This Warranty does not include service or parts to repair damage caused by accident, disaster,

misuse, abuse, negligence, inadequate packing or shipping procedures, commercial use, volt-

age inputs in excess of the rated maximum of the unit, or service, repair or modification of the

product which has not been authorized or approved by Proficient Audio Systems. This Warranty

also excludes normal cosmetic deterioration caused by environmental conditions. This warranty

will be void if the Serial Number on the product has been removed, tampered with or defaced.

This Warranty is in lieu of all other expressed warranties. If the product is defective in materials

or workmanship as warranted above, the purchaser’s sole remedy shall be repair or replacement

as provided above. In no event will Proficient Audio Systems be liable for any incidental or con-

sequential damages arising out of the use or inability to use the product, even if Proficient Audio

Systems, or a Proficient Audio Systems Authorized Dealer has been advised of the possibility of

such damages, or for any claim by any other party. Some states do not allow the exclusion or

limitation of consequential damages, so the above limitation and exclusion may not apply.

All implied warranties on the product are limited to the duration of this expressed Warranty.

Some states do not allow limitation on the length of an implied warranty. If the original retail

purchaser resides in such a state, this limitation does not apply.

KEYpAD hooKUp

noTE: The numeric and function keypads will not

work on their own. They must be connected to a

master keypad using the 3-connector ribbon cable

supplied (included with each model). The cable is

symmetrical so it can be connected with the red

striped side up or down, to best fit the configuration.

figure 11 shows it connected so that the PMKIR

master keypad will be to the right of the PNK numeric

and PFK function keypads when mounted, whereas

figure 12 places the PMKIR to the left.

Using CAT5 Cable to Connect PMKIR Keypads to M4

figure 10 Moving and Placing Buttons

figure 9 Remove Decorator Insert Panel

1. The keypads have a pre-installed set of buttons in

place. These may not match the source and function

arrangements you need or desire. To change them,

release the tabs on each end of the keypad, figure 8,

and remove the decorator insert panel, exposing the

key buttons, figure 9.
2. Starting with the Zone 1 PMKIR (master keypad),

and using the extra buttons supplied, if needed,

move and place the source and function buttons in

the arrangement you want. See figure 10. When you

finish the arrangement, replace the decorator insert

panel over the buttons, being careful to see that the

buttons align correctly with the panel openings.

Press the panel down until the tabs “snap” into place.
3. Repeat these steps for each of the other zone

master keypads. Each zone can have its own unique

configuration… but, it is best to keep them as similar

as possible to simplify programming and operation.
4. In the same way, configure the buttons on the

numeric and function keypads (not included) that

you may chose to use in some zones.
5. Connect all keypads to their assigned zones on

the M4 as shown in figure 7. Be sure to strip then

connect the various colored CAT5 leads to the correct

terminals on each keypad end. Refer to figure 15.

ConfIGURE ThE KEYpAD BUTTonS

noTE 1: If you want to use RJ45 connectors for

connecting the CAT5 cable to the keypads, you can do

so by using the Proficient model RJA-1.1 RJ45-to-Wire Pin

Adapters. See figure 13 and figure 14. Simply insert the

RJA-1.1 pins into the keypad’s connection terminals and

snap the levers in place. Be sure to orient them correctly

as shown.
