The Kramer RC-5B2 and RC-5B4 Dual Inserts
Congratulations on purchasing your Kramer
RC-5B2
and
RC-5B4
dual inserts with RGB buttons,
which can be used as auxiliary controllers when connected via K-NET™ to a Master room controller
(for example, the
SV-552
SummitView™ Processor / Switcher
or one of the Kramer SL series
controllers).
K-NET is a proprietary Kramer protocol for communication between Kramer products.
The
RC-5B2
and
RC-5B4
packages include labels (P/N: 2808-300008) that are used as light
diffusers and therefore need to be inserted inside each button (even to “blank” buttons).
i
This user manual is written for the end user. Refer to the separate
K-Config
Configuration Guide (available online) for details of how to install and configure the
Room Controller. The guide provides information about how to set up the system
and is updated on a regular basis. For the latest online guide, go to
