The Extron MKP 3000 is a mountable remote control panel designed to work with any Extron matrix switcher with RS-232 or IP Link?Ethernet control capabilities. It provides a convenient remote point of control for selecting both input and output channels, X-Y mode, recalling global presets, or selecting inputs tied to a specific output. When configured as an Ethernet-based control panel, multiple MKP 3000s can be placed wherever switcher control is needed.
User Interface
The MKP 3000's user interface features:
- LCD display ?The two-line LCD display makes it easy to select and view the status of inputs, outputs, and presets.
- Selection scroll knob ?Allows simple selection of inputs, outputs, and presets, as well as volume control.
- I/O plane selection button ?Changes color to indicate audio only, video only, or audio and video.
- Tri-color, backlit buttons ?Illuminate green, red, or amber, depending on function. The buttons can be custom-labeled for easy identification.
Control Options
The MKP 3000 is designed to work with any Extron matrix switcher using Extron's SIS?- Simple Instruction Set command structure, and is equipped with Ethernet and RS-232 serial control ports.
RS-232 Control
The MKP 3000 features two RS-232 ports: one for primary communication with the matrix switcher, and one pass-through port for use of a third-party control system. In addition, several MKP 3000s can be daisy-chained together via RS-232. The MKP 3000 can also be combined with the Extron MKP 2000 to suit technical and/or control needs.
IP Link Ethernet Control
In a network environment, the Ethernet port allows a MKP 3000 to be placed on a standard TCP/IP network for use with IP Link enabled matrix switchers such as the Extron CrossPoint 450 Plus and MAV Plus Series. An unlimited number of MKP 3000s can be connected to a matrix switcher as part of a simple IP network.
Virtual I/O GroupingA key feature of the MKP 3000 is virtual I/O grouping, which allows specific inputs and outputs to be assigned or blocked for each controller utilized in a system design. For example, each room in a multi-room application can have its own set of inputs and outputs programmed into a local MKP 3000. Any number of MKP 3000s can be integrated into the system, and each can be restricted to a certain set of I/Os with relatively little effort.
Integrated Web Server
The MKP 3000's integrated IP Link high performance Web server provides internal Web pages that offer an intuitive graphical interface for easy set-up and configuration. The System Settings page consolidates controls for IP address setup, RS-232 control port setting, and switcher I/O configuration, including I/O authorization for the virtual I/O grouping function. Inputs and outputs can be named for ease of operation in any switching application.
- LCD display
?Makes it easy to select and view the status of inputs, outlets, and presets.
- Selection scroll knob
?Allows simple selection of inputs, outputs, presets, and volume control.
- I/O and preset naming
?Input sources, output destinations, and global presets can be easily named using internal Web pages or serial commands.
- Audio/Video breakaway control
?Select audio only, video only, or audio and video, per input.
- Audio volume control
?The selection scroll knob doubles as an audio output volume control for many Extron matrix switcher models.
- Virtual I/O grouping
?Each MKP 3000 can be configured with its own unique set of inputs and outputs. By limiting user access to specific I/O ties, custom switching zones can be easily created.
- View all I/O ties in real time
?Allows the user to recall any established I/O tie and view it on an MKP 3000's LCD display.
- RS-232 pass-through port
?In addition to the primary RS-232 port, the MKP 3000 also includes a second RS-232 pass-through port. This provides a convenient communication path when a third-party control system is used in conjunction with the MKP 3000.
- Unlimited control points
?Multiple MKP 3000s can be added to any matrix system, providing convenient points of control from virtually any location.
- Ethernet and RS-232 matrix switcher control
?Remote control can be added to both new and existing Extron matrix switcher installations.
- Integrated Web server
?The MKP 3000 can be easily configured through its Ethernet port, using a Web browser such as Microsoft's Internet Explorer.
- I/O sizes up to 256 x 256 and larger
?The MKP 3000 can switch both physical and virtual I/Os on large switchers such as the Extron Matrix 12800.
- Executive lockout mode
?The front panel of the MKP 3000 can be locked out via Ethernet or RS-232 to prevent unauthorized configuration.
- Downloadable firmware updates
?The latest firmware can be conveniently downloaded from the Extron Web site. Updates for new features and capabilities can be easily upgraded through the Ethernet port.
- Versatile mounting options
?The MKP 3000 fits into a two-gang wall plate. It can be installed on a conference table or podium, or in a wall, using any standard 2.5" deep masonry or surface mount box.
