ADVANCE INSTALLATION – MRC88, MRAUDIO8X8 & 780-10 IR Receiver  

An additional IR device can be connected to the MRCKPSP. Figure 3 shows an application where an 
additional IR receiver is used in the same zone as the two keypads. An external power supply is used 
to power both primary and secondary keypads as well the IR receiver. The power jumper must be set 
to “EXT”.

The keypads should follow the jumper settings as discussed in “BASIC INSTALLATION – MRC88, 
MRAUDIO8X8”. 
 
The distance between the MRCKPSP to the MRC88 Keypads is 500 feet maximum. The distance 
between the MRCKPSP and the multi-room controller is less than 15 feet. The distance between the 
MRCKPSP and the 780-10 is 500 feet maximum.     
 
Since an external power supply is being used, the system must be powered up in a specific 
sequence. Apply power to the MRCKPSP before starting the MRC88 Controller.
