Connecting Master Keypads  
Four RJ-45 modular jacks accept CAT-5 cables  
from keypads in up to four zones.  
See Figure 3  
The first keypad in each zone is designated as the  
master keypad. All master keypads connect directly  
to the RHB-200 Connecting Hub as follows.  
Zone IR Outputs  
Four 3.5mm mini-jacks send IR signals to the zone  
IR inputs on a Rotel receiver.  
1. For Zone 1, connect one end of the cable to  
the ZONE OUT modular jack on the back of  
the master keypad.  
Common IR Outputs  
Six 3.5mm mini-jacks send IR signals to source  
components, either to a direct-wired connection  
(Rotel components) or to an IR emitter.  
2. Connect the other end to the ZONE 1 modular  
jack on the RHB-200 Connecting Hub.  
3. Repeat for the master keypads in Zones 2, 3,  
and 4, using the ZONE 2, ZONE 3, and ZONE  
4 modular jacks on the RHB-200.  
Connecting the system  
The master keypads are shown in normal shading  
on the illustration.  
Master keypads in up to four remote zones con-  
nect to a centrally-located RHB-200 Connecting  
Hub using standard Category 5 Ethernet-style ca-  
bling and 8-pin RJ-45 modular plugs. A second  
keypad can be added in each of the four zones,  
if desired. The second keypad is connected to the  
master keypad in its zone and provides duplicate  
functions from a second location.  
Connecting a Second Keypad  
See Figure 3  
An optional second keypad in each zone is des-  
ignated as a slave keypad. Slave keypads always  
connect to the master keypad in the zone:  
1. Connect one end of a Category 5 Ethernet  
cable from the ZONE OUT modular jack on  
the slave keypad.  
Cable selection  
Run 8-conductor CAT-5 Ethernet cabling from each  
keypad location to the RHB-200 Connecting Hub.  
Terminate each end of the cables with standard 8-  
pin RJ-45 modular plugs. Use a “straight-through”  
wiring code, with the same color wire connected  
to the same pin on every plug as shown below. If  
your cable has different color codes, make sure to  
wire every modular plug in the same order.  
2. Connect the other end to the ZONE IN jack  
on the master keypad.  
3. Repeat for the master keypads in Zones 2, 3,  
and 4, using the ZONE 2, ZONE 3, and ZONE  
4 modular jacks on the RHB-200.  
Optional slave keypads are shown in lighter shad-  
ing on the illustration.

2. Plug the other end of the cable into the zone  
1 IR input on the receiver, labeled EXT REM  
IR IN on the Rotel RX-1052.  
Mounting the Keypads  
Once all of the keypads are connected, pro-  
grammed, and tested, finish the installation by  
installing them into electrical boxes.  
3. Repeat for any additional zones, matching  
the ZONE 2 IR OUT on the RHB-200 to the  
ZONE 2 IR IN on the receiver, etc.  
NOTE: Purchase decorative switchplate covers to  
match those used in the room for light switches.  
The RKB-200 is not supplied with decorative  
switch plate covers because there is no way to  
know which style or color will match in custom  
installations.  
Connecting the RHB-200  
to Source Components  
See Figure 4  
The RHB-200 connecting hub sends command  
codes to source components (such as CD play-  
ers) using infrared commands. With most Rotel  
source components, connections are made us-  
ing two-conductor cables with 3.5mm mono mini  
plugs on both ends. One cable is needed for each  
source component.  
The exact installation steps may vary depending  
on the style of switch plate covers you purchase.  
However, here is a typical installation method us-  
ing Decora® style covers:  
1. Remove the mounting bracket from the back  
of the decorative cover.  
2. Place the mounting bracket over the electrical  
box.  
1. Plug one end of the cable for the first Rotel  
source component into any of the COMMON  
IR OUT connectors on back of the RHB-200.  
3. Place the keypad through the mounting bracket  
and into the electrical box.  
2. Plug the other end of the cable into the EXT  
REM IN IR input on first source component.  
4. Placetwo screwsthroughthemountingtabson  
the keypad and through the mounting bracket  
to secure the keypad. Do not overtighten.  
3. Repeat for any source components, using any  
available COMMON IR OUT connectors on  
the RHB-200.  
5. Place the decorative cover over the keypad  
and press in at the top and bottom until se-  
cure. There is a small slot in one edge of the  
decorative cover. Orient the cover so this slot  
is facing down.  
NOTE: If your source component does not have  
an input for a hard-wired IR cable, you can use  
an industry standard IR emitter placed in front of  
the source component’s infrared remote sensor.  
Connect the other end of cable to a COMMON  
IR OUT connector on the RHB-200. This type  
of source component is shown at the bottom of  
Figure 4.  
NOTE: Do not mount the keypads until all program-  
ming steps are complete and the system has been  
tested. Access to DIP switches at the back of the  
keypads is necessary during programming.  
AC Power connection  
Connecting the RHB-200  
to a Rotel Receiver  
Once all of the keypad and IR connections are  
complete, supply power to the RHB-200.  
See Figure 4  
1. Plug the connector from the supplied AC  
adaptor into the +12V input on the back of  
the RHB-200.  
The RHB-200 connecting hub sends command  
codes to a Rotel multi-zone receiver using infra-  
red commands. The connections are made using  
two-conductor cables with 3.5mm mono mini  
plugs on both ends. One cable is needed for  
each zone with a keypad, up to a max of four.  
A Rotel RX-1052 multi-zone receiver is shown in  
the example:  
2. Plug the AC adaptor into an AC power wall  
outlet.  
1. Plug one end of the first cable into the ZONE 1  
IR OUT connector on back of the RHB-200.

Backlighting  
Configuring the keypads  
As delivered from the factory, the keypads have  
automatic backlighting for the device buttons and  
With the default factory configuration, the keypads  
are ready to use in a system with Rotel compo-  
nents as described in the Operating the Keypads  
section of the manual. However, the keypads can  
be customized in several ways during setup. Op-  
tions include:  
the  
button.  
When a device button is pressed, the backlighting  
for that button remains lit to indicate the currently  
selected device.  
The backlighting for the  
button remains on

the keypad.  
NOTE: The backlighting feature can be permanently  
disabled during configuration of the keypads.  
Disabling the backlighting.  
Resetting the keypad to its default factory con-  
figuration.  
IR Sensor  
Replacing the standard button labels with op-  
tional labels.  
An infrared sensor is located behind the dark oval  
lens at the top of the keypad. This sensor receives  
IR commands from a handheld remote control  
aimed at the keypad.  
This section of the manual provides instructions for  
each of these configuration steps.  
IR commands received by the IR sensor do not  
change the backlighting on the keypad. For ex-  
ample, a MUTE command received from a hand-  
held remote will not light the MUTE button on  
the keypad.  
NOTE: An additional customizing feature is  
Cloning, which allows quick transfer of learned  
commands and SMART sequences to additional  
keypads. Cloning is covered in a later section of  
the manual.  
MUTE: The IR sensor can be disabled during con-  
figuration of the keypads. Generally, the sensor  
of a second keypad in a zone should be disabled  
if there is a chance of IR signals reaching both  
keypads simultaneously.  
Using the DIP switches  
All of the configuration options require the use of  
small DIP switches located on the bottom of the  
keypad. These switches are only accessible be-  
fore the keypad is mounted in an electrical box.  
Therefore, customizing should be completed be-  
fore mounting the keypads.  
The location of the DIP switches can be seen in  
Figure 1 at the front of this manual. Here are the  
default settings for all ten switches:

An IR sensor on the front of the keypad allows  
operation of the system from a handheld remote  
control aimed at the keypad. This sensor can be  
disabled. Generally, the sensor only needs to be  
disabled when two keypads are installed in the  
same room. In this case, disable the sensor on the  
second keypad to prevent sending IR commands  
to both keypads. For the same reason, you might  
disable the sensor of a keypad installed near the  
components being controlled.

Learning commands  
The RKP-200 keypad is programmed at the factory  
with basic commands for Rotel and other compo-  
nents as described in the Operating the Keypads  
section of the manual. These commands can be  
replaced when using non-Rotel components or for  
access to different features.  
2. Press the device key containing the commands  
(the  
button in this example).  
3. Put the keypad into Learning mode by moving  
SW7 to the ON position:  
New commands are learned by the keypad by  
using a learning procedure during initial configu-  
ration of the keypad involving aiming the hand-  
held remote for the component at the IR sensor  
on the keypad.  
4. Within 30 seconds, press the keypad command

Learning invisible layer commands  
Each of the four devices (  
,
,
,
) on the  
RKP-200 keypad can store 14 invisible layer com-  
mands. These commands cannot be accessed dur-  
ing normal operation of the keypads; however, they  
can be used as part of Smart Macro sequences.

device, place SW4 in the ON position:  
The procedure for learning an invisible layer com-  
mand is similar to learning a standard command,  
except that four switches SW1 – SW4 are used to  
select the invisible layer, one switch correspond-  
ing to each device. Once the invisible layer is se-  
lected, any of the 14 buttons can be used to store  
an invisible layer command without overwriting  
the standard commands stored for each button.  
With an invisible layer for each of the four devic-  
es, a total of 56 invisible layers commands can  
be stored, 14 for each device  
To learn standard commands, exit the invisible  
layer mode by putting SW1 – SW4 all in the  
OFF positions. :  
To learn an invisible layer command:  
3. Put the keypad into Learning mode by moving  
SW7 to the ON position. In this example, we  
are learning invisible layer commands for the  
CD device:  
1. The  
button lighting flashes to confirm suc-  
cessful or failed learning. So, the backlighting  
feature must be active before starting the learn-  
ing procedure (SW10 in the ON position).  
Also, the IR sensor must be enabled (SW9 in  
the ON position). Confirm the position of SW9  
and SW10:

4. Press the first step of the SMART sequence. In  
this example, press the button, since the first  
step is to select the DVD input.  
5. Press the next step in the SMART sequence. In  
this case, add a two second delay by press-  
ing the  
button twice. This is a special com-  
mand; each press adds a one second delay.

pad in ZONE 1. While this keypad is receiv-  
ing cloned data, the ZONE 1 LED on the front  
of the RHB-200 flashes red. When the cloning  
of the first keypad is complete, the LED glows  
solid red. The cloning process then continues  
to the second keypad in ZONE 1 (if it exists).  
The LED flashes green during the cloning and  
glows solid green when the cloning is com-  
plete.  
Programming a SMART Sequence with  
Invisible Layer Commands  
To include invisible layer commands in a SMART  
sequence, substitute the following steps for Step  
4 in the preceding instructions:  
Put SW1, SW2, SW3, or SW4 in the ON posi-  
tion to select the invisible layer where the de-  
sired command is stored:  
5. Step 5 is then repeated automatically for Zone  
2, Zone 3, and Zone 4 as necessary. The entire  
cloning process can take up to 10 minutes.  
6. If an error occurs, all four LEDs on the RHB-200  
flash green six times and the DEVICE buttons on  
the zone keypads flash on for one second.  
Press the invisible layer command button.  
Return the SW1 – SW4 switch to the OFF po-  
sition to exit invisible layer mode.  
Resetting keypads  
Should you want to reset a keypad to its original  
factory programming, use a small pointed ob-  
ject to press the reset button on the side of the  
keypad. This erases all learned commands and  
SMART sequences.  
Cloning  
Changing buttons  
Once you have completed the learning and  
SMART sequence programming for one keypad,  
it is easy to transfer that programming to all of the  
keypads connected to the RHB-200 with a proce-  
dure called cloning.  
A selection of replacement buttons is available from  
Rotel to customize keypads. To replace buttons:  
1. Press the two tabs at the top and bottom of the  
keypad and pull the keypad module from the  
mounting bracket:  
To clone a keypad:  
1. With the RHB-200 disconnected from the AC  
wall power, connect the ZONE OUT connec-  
tor of the programmed keypad to the CLONE  
IN modular jack on the back of the RHB-200  
using a CAT 5 cable.  
2. Make sure that all keypads to be programmed  
are connected properly as shown in Figure 5.  
You can program two keypads in a single zone  
as shown by light shaded keypads in the illus-  
tration.  
NOTE: Keypads in the remote zones must not be in  
Learning or SMART configuration mode.  
3. Power on the RHB-200 by connecting it to the  
AC power source. The four Zone LEDs on the  
front of the RHB-200 flash green once. The  
LED on the keypad being cloned flashes  
once.  
4. Press the large CLONE button on the front  
panel of the RHB-200. The cloning process  
begins in sequence, starting with the first key-

2. Using a small flat blade screwdriver, release  
the four tabs on the sides of the module, re-  
leasing the keypad cover.  
3. Once the keypad cover has been removed,  
pull a button off and replace it with one of the  
optional buttons.
