BK10 Table-top keypad CONFIGURATIONS The BK10 can be used in two types of configurations: 1. As an A-BUS Ready / Incognito Ready keypad attached directly to the back of an amplifier / receiver. 2. In a full A-BUS or Incognito Multi-Room system attached to a hub. A-BUS Ready / Incognito Ready allows one or two keypads (and a PSU) to be simply connected to a hi-fi unit to allow a simple 2/3 zone multi-room system to be constructed. Alternatively when a dedicated A-BUS hub is used the system has

INSTALLATION NOTES Avoid placing the keypad where there is line of sight to another keypad. In such situations both keypads may pick up the same commands from a remote control and it will be difficult to control each zone independently. Avoid placing the BK10 where there is line of sight to the source equipment for the system. In such situations the source equipment may pick up the same IR commands directly as are picked up by the keypad and sent to the source equipment. This can interfere with
