SETTING THE KEYPADS
Before a keypad is installed into the j-box, turn on the
power so that you can operate the keypad.
CA-LCD Only: The amber and the green backlight brightness
can be individually set. Note the brightness controls are
located on the side of the keypad. Adjust to the desired
brightness the backlight that first comes on. Press and hold
the lamp button on the front of the keypad until the back-
light switches to the other color. Adjust the brightness for
the selected color.
Both CA-LCD and CA-KP.2: The maximum volume and the
balance should also be set at this time.

SOURCE CONTROL KEYPADS OPTION
The optional DSC and DAN source control keypads simply
dock into the side of either the CA-KP.2 or CA-LCD keypads
via a 16 prong jack. See DSC and/or DAN instruction manu-
als for programming instructions.

SRM-2.1 SPEAKER RELAY MODULE OPTION
The optional SRM-2.1 module works with CA-LCD keypad’s
12V trigger output. This unobtrusive wall-mount device
allows you to automatically switch to whole house audio in
a zone containing existing audio equipment. Example: In a
bedroom with a stereo system, the stereo system would be
the default. When you turn on the bedroom's zone at the
keypad the whole house audio system takes control of the
existing stereo speakers.
If you are using the optional SRM-2.1 speaker relay module,
wire the +, - terminals of the CA-LCD to the SRM-2.1 +, -
terminals.
