CONFIGURATION
Once your KPCx6 is installed it can be configured either
manually or with the UPStart Setup Software.
Manual configuration can be used without UPStart to add
your KPCx6 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 KPCx6 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 KPCx6 into SETUP mode. To enter Setup Mode,
simultaneously press and hold the
ON
and
OFF
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
ON
and
OFF
buttons for 3 seconds or wait
five minutes for it to time out.
Changing a Scene’s Preset Light Levels
The 6-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 6-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 Wall Switch to set the
new desired Preset Light Level.
3.
Rapidly tap the pushbutton on the 6-Button Controller
five
times.
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 KPCx6 will operate with
the stored configuration settings. Single-tap, double-tap,
hold, or release the pushbuttons to transmit a preset
command onto the powerline. Refer to the 6-Button
Specification Document (available for download at
www.PulseWorx.com) for more details about the keypad
operation.
Backlit Pushbuttons
Each of the six 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.
Infra-Red (IR) Receiver
The KPCx6 is capable of receiving IR messages from an Infra-Red
Remote (model IRR – sold separately) to activate pushbutton
presses from the comfort of your couch or chair.
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
A
,
B
,
C
, and
D
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
A
,
B
