Overview  
The WP-500:  
Consists of two VGA inputs, each with an unbalanced stereo audio signal,  
one composite video input with an unbalanced stereo audio signal, and a  
dynamic or condenser microphone input  
Includes an RGBHV output, a composite video output and two identical audio  
outputs  
Includes bidirectional RS-232 and IR out for controlling the display device  
Has two analog volume control adjustment knobs, one for the PC/Video audio  
signal and the other for microphone volume adjustment  
Features four dedicated front panel buttons, one for turning the projector  
ON/OFF and the other three for selecting which input to route to the  
projector. Each button can be programmed to perform command macros  
Is Kramer Site-CTRL™ compatible1, for network remote control and  
management over the Ethernet port  
Includes an Ethernet port for remote control and management from the  
Kramer Site-CTRL™ software and for accessing the stored Web pages  
Can store EDID information and support EDID communication with the  
connected PC sources (the default EDID is uploaded upon delivery; a specific  
EDID can be uploaded by the user via the Kramer FC-200 XGA EDID  
Copier2)  
Has a USB port for programming via a computer  
Is available as a 3 Gang wall plate for the USA  
To achieve the best performance:  
Use the dedicated Kramer WP-500 installation cable. If this is not available,  
connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference,  
deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise-levels  
(often associated with low quality cables)  
Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and position your  
Kramer WP-500 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust  
1 Kramer Site-CTRL is a powerful A/V asset management tool. It offers real-time network monitoring and control of Kramer  
Master controllers installed at an A/V site and all the connected A/V equipment. The Kramer Site-CTRL downloadable  
version can monitor and control up to 100 Kramer Master controllers. For larger installations, a similar solution is also  
available

Connecting the Microphone  
5.1.1  
You can connect either a dynamic or a condenser microphone to the MIC IN  
3.5mm mini jack.  
Before connecting the microphone, set the microphone mode switch to dynamic  
or condenser (by default, this switch is set to dynamic).  
The Dyn/Cond mode switch is located behind the front panel on the lower left  
side of the MIC IN 3.5mm jack, as illustrated in Figure 5.  
It is recommended to set the mic mode switch before mounting the WP-500 front  
panel.

Figure 5: Setting the Microphone Mode Switch  
When disconnecting the microphone or switching it OFF, turn the  
microphone volume adjustment knob to the left (MIC mute).  
When using the microphone, pay attention to the placement of the speakers. By  
placing the speakers properly, the chance of getting audio feedback is minimized.
