Metreau™ 6-Source Audio Keypad

Overview

The DAS-MET-6SRC Metreau 6-Source Audio Keypad (FG1122-01) features source
control, a navigation wheel that adjusts volume and provides up, down, left, right and
center button options, as well as an LED bar for visual volume feedback (FIG. 1).

The DAS-MET-6SRC is a SWT keypad, suitable for use in Matrix Distributed Audio
Systems.

Specifications

Navigation Wheel - Pushbuttons

The top, bottom, left and right points on the Navigation Wheel are used for source
control and can be programmed to provide any source functionality by learning the
applicable IR code.
The center pushbutton is dual-purpose: a push/release on this button provides one
function, while a press/hold provides another. The center pushbutton are also used for
source control and can be programmed to provide any source functionality (again, by
learning the applicable IR code).
FIG. 2 shows the button layout of the Navigation Wheel:

Navigation Wheel

The Navigation Wheel itself can be rotated bi-directionally, and provides volume level
control.

Clockwise rotation increases the volume level, counter-clockwise rotation

decreases the volume level.

The range for volume is 0 - 70.

Installation

Note: Before touching the device, discharge the static electricity from your body by
touching a grounded metal object.
FIG. 3 shows the basic rear components of the DAS-MET-6SRC keypads:

Wiring

SWT wiring utilizes four-color "snap connectors" to secure the wires (no screws). You
will need a wire stripper to prepare and connect the captive wires.
1.

Strip 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) of wire insulation off all wires.

2.

Insert each wire into the appropriate opening on the connector according to the
wiring diagrams and connector types described in this section.

SWT Data and Power Connections

SWT wiring involves connecting the Mi-Series Controller, Metreau keypads, and
Speakers.
The Matrix Audio Controller and Metreau keypads are cabled using standard
4-conductor speaker cable originating at the Controller, passing through the keypad,
and terminating at the speaker location.
AMX recommends using a bundled 4-conductor, 16-gauge stranded copper wire in a
single continuous run.
