CONFIGURATION 

Once your KPL is installed it can be configured either manually 
or with UPStart Configuration Software Version 6.0 build 57 or 
higher.  

Refer to the Keypad Controller’s Manual Configuration Guide 
available on the PCS website for further details on Manual 
configuration to add your KPL device into a UPB network and 
link it to various load control devices.   
 
Although the factory default operation of the KPL is very useful 
in many situations, it is highly recommended that you program 
your KPL with a Powerline Interface Module (PIM) and UPStart 
Configuration Software to take advantage of its many 
configurable features. User Guides are available on our website, 
if you need further assistance on how to configure your system. 

SETUP Mode 

When configuring a UPB system, it will be necessary to place 
the KPL into SETUP mode.  To enter Setup Mode, simultaneously 
press and hold the 

Scene 1 

and 

Down Arrow 

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 

Scene 1 

and 

Down Arrow

 buttons for 3 seconds or 

wait five minutes for it to time out. 

Changing a Scene’s Preset Light Levels 

The 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 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 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 KPL 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 Specification Document (available for 
download) for more details about the keypad operation. 

 

 

Backlit Pushbuttons 

Each of the pushbuttons has a White 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. 

Factory Default Settings 

To restore the following default settings put the KPL into SETUP 
mode and then simultaneously press and hold the 

Scene 2 and Off 

buttons for about 3 seconds.  The indicators will light up to 
indicate that factory defaults have been restored.
