KMPS-7 Owners Manual
Thank you for selecting the KEF KMPS-7 Power Supply. The KMPS-7 is designed for a plug and play installation when used with
KEF motorized custom installation speaker model Ci200.3Qt (and Ci3-80Qt in the near future). The KMPS-7 will also simplify the
installation of all previous models and versions of KEF motorized speakers. The KMPS-7 may also be used to activate other devices
in an installation, that utilize a standard 12VDC trigger such as TV lifts, drop down screens and motorized drapes and blinds.
What’s in the box?
Please inspect the contents of the KMPS-7 carton carefully before installation. You will find the KMPS-7 Power Supply, The main
power cord with a standard 3 prong connection at each end (much like a computer power cord), A secondary 2 prong line cord for
use when selecting the
Switched Outlet Trigger Method
(See
Trigger Options
section), and an 1/8” (3 mm) male-to-male mono
mini plug cable for use when selecting the
Receiver 12V Trigger Method
(See
Trigger Options
section), 4 Self Stick Rubber Feet
and 2 rack adaptors with screws to attach them to the KMPS-7.
Placement
You can either sit the KMPS-7 on a shelf or use the Rack Adaptors to mount the unit to a standard rack system or within a piece of
furniture with mounting rails. The body of the KMPS-7 is 17” wide to accommodate standard EIA rack systems. With the Rack
Adaptors mounted to the unit, the total width is 19”. If simply sitting the unit on a shelf, please attach the 4 Self Stick Rubber Feet to
the four corners of the bottom of the unit. Do not place the KMPS-7 on other heat producing components since it may cause the unit
to overheat.
For Rack Mounting the KMPS-7, attach the Rack Adaptors to the unit using the 8 screws included. You will need to furnish the
Rack mounting screws for your particular rack or mounting rails. Do not mount the KMPS-7 directly above another heat producing
component since it may result in overheating.
Front Panel Controls
Main Power Switch – This switch is used to power the KMPS-7 on and off.
Manual Activation Switch – This switch is used to activate and deactivate the motorized speaker connected to the
KMPS-7. If no Trigger Option is used, this switch can be used to manually drop and raise the motorized speakers connected to it
on demand. The switch can also be used to test the function of the speakers prior to completing the entire home theater
installation and set up. When a regular trigger option is selected using one of the trigger connections on the rear panel, this
switch should be kept in the “Up” position. The Manual Activation Switch will override any other trigger options selected. If the
switch is left in the “Down” position it may give the impression that trigger method selected isn’t working. Always keep this
switch in the “Up” position when using any other trigger option.
