Keypad Controllers
Installation Guide and
Owner’s Manual
CONFIGURATION
Once your KPCx8 is installed it can be configured either
manually or with the UPStart Setup Software.
Manual configuration can be used without UPStart to add
your KPCx8 device into a UPB network and link it to various
load control devices. Refer to the Keypad Controller’s Manual
Configuration Guide available on the PulseWorx website
(www.PulseWorx.com) for further details.
Although the factory default operation of the KPCx8 is very
useful in many situations, it is highly recommended that you
configure your KPC with the UPStart Setup Software to take
advantage of its many configurable features.
PCS has developed a Powerline Interface Module (PIM) and
free UPB Setup Software (UPStart) to help you configure all of
your PulseWorx Lighting System devices. User’s Guides are
available on the PulseWorx web site: www.PulseWorx.com to
explain how to configure your system.
SETUP Mode
When configuring a UPB system, it will be necessary to place
the KPCx8 into SETUP mode. To do this, simultaneously press
and hold the
E
and
L
buttons for 3 seconds. All of the LED
indicators will blink once the device is in SETUP mode. To exit
SETUP mode, again simultaneously press and hold the
E
and
L
buttons for 3 seconds or wait five minutes for it to time out.
Changing a Scene’s Preset Light Levels
The 8-Button Controllers are specially designed to work with
other PulseWorx™ Lighting System devices. Each pushbutton
on these controllers is configured to activate a Preset Light
Level and Fade Rate stored within the PulseWorx devices.
The Preset Light Levels can be easily adjusted by following
this simple procedure:
1.
Press the pushbutton on the 8-Button Controller to
activate the currently stored Preset Light Levels (scene)
in the Wall Switch Dimmer(s).
2.
Use the local rocker switch on the WS1D to set the new
desired Preset Light Level.
3.
Rapidly tap the pushbutton on the 8-Button Controller
five
times quickly.
4.
The WS1D’s lighting load will flash one time to indicate
that it has stored the new Preset Light Level.
OPERATION
Once installed and configured the KPCx8 will operate with the
stored configuration settings. Single-tap, double-tap, hold, or
release the pushbuttons to transmit preset commands onto the
powerline. Refer to the 8-Button Specification Document
(available for download at www.PulseWorx.com) for more details
about the keypad operation.
Backlit Pushbuttons
Each of the eight pushbuttons has a blue LED behind it to
provide back-lighting and to indicate when loads or scenes are
activated. By default, the back-lighting is enabled and pressing a
pushbutton will cause it to illuminate brighter than the others.
Keypad Lockout Feature
A lockout feature is available to temporarily lock the keypad
pushbuttons when throwing parties or guarding against young
children playing with the lighting. To activate the keypad
lockout: simultaneously press and hold the
G
,
H
,
I
, and
J
buttons
for 3 seconds. All LED indicators will extinguish and future
presses of the buttons will have no effect. To disable the keypad
lockout: simultaneously press and hold the
G
,
H
,
I
, and
J
buttons
again for 3 seconds. The KPCx8 will reset and again respond to
button presses.

SETUP mode and then simultaneously press and hold the
F
and

buttons for 3 seconds. The
