Installation Procedures
The MKPs are mounted into a wall, furniture, or any other
convenient location. Follow the instructions appropriate to the
mounting option you have selected.
CAUTION The control panel must be installed into an
Underwriters Laboratories (UL) approved electrical
wall box.
When installing MKP control panels, you must conform
to all national and local electrical codes.
CAUTION Installation and service must be performed by
authorized personnel only. UL Listed electrical
boxes are recommended. See UL Requirements
for Wall Box Installation on the next page.
The MKP 2000 remote control panel should be installed in a
standard, 2-gang electrical wall box (figure 2-1). Figure 2-1 shows
the MKP installed in a wall. This could also be in a desk, a
podium, or any other convenient location.
The procedures provided here assume that the electrical wall
boxes and the cables have been installed for the system. Rear
Panel and Side Panel Connections, starting on page 2-8 provides
guidance for terminating the cables.
MKP Installation Overview
To install an MKP 2000 remote control panel, follow these steps:
1 Disconnect power from the matrix switcher and all MKPs
in the system.
2 Prepare the site: cut a hole in the wall/furniture, install
the electrical box or mud ring, and prepare the cables.
Instructions are included in this manual and/or with the
wall box. See Preparing the site, installing the mud ring or
wall box in this chapter.
3 Connect the cable between the MKP and the
matrix switcher. See Rear Panel and Side Panel Connections
on page 2-8.
4 Connect power cords to the MKP and the matrix switcher.
5 Test the MKP’s ability to communicate with the matrix
switcher.
6 Disconnect power from all the devices.
