KEypAD ConfIGURATIonS
The M6 System comes with six single gang PMKIR
pre-configured keypads, one for each zone as shown
for the single gang version in figure 14. The cover
plates and the other configurations are optional.
Each keypad comes with a set of factory installed
“default buttons” plus a good variety of additional
buttons. The default buttons can be easily changed
to meet the needs of the installation.
The Proficient M6 System consists of four subsystems.
First, the keypads themselves can be configured in
many key icon arrangements and placed in a one,
two or three gang set-up to meet virtually any client
requirement. They are connected via convenient
CAT5 cable with home-run lengths of up to 1000'
(305m or longer, if heavier gauge wire is used) to the
centrally located M6 Multi-Zone Audio Amplifier/
Controller located near the controlled equipment.
The M6 contains the “brains” of the system, taking
key location data from the keypads to trigger the
actual controlling IR, RS232 and RS485 commands
that are passed to all of the installed system
components. Programming is accomplished by the
use of proficient Editor, a Proficient developed
Windows software system. A fourth item, the
optional Command Interface (sold separately), is an
installer’s tool for learning and teaching special IR
commands that are not included in the proficient
Editor internal library.

insert panel to the metal mounting plate and are
easily released for custom changing of the buttons.

Keypad Features
M6 AUDIo ConTRoLLER WITh KEypAD SySTEM
The keypads come in four basic modules.
PMKIR
(12 buttons) and
PMK
(13 buttons) are the master
keypads and must be used in each system. As
mentioned earlier, the M6 comes with a pre-
configured version of the PMKIR, for the convenience
of the installer. It is usable right "out of the box" in
conjunction with a default project that is factory
programmed into the M6. The PMKIR includes an
IR receiver and has one less function button, but is
otherwise identical to the PMK. The
PNK
Numeric
(16 buttons) and
PFK
Function (14 buttons) keypad
modules can be thought of as “slaves” to the PMKIR /
PMK (they will not work alone), providing additional
key locations for numeric and function commands.
