AT-VKP-8E
The Atlona AT-VKP-8E is a simple yet powerful 8 button IP-based control system in a wallplate
form factor. The buttons are fully configurable for controls such as display power, input switching,
audio levels, or any other functions supported by system devices. In addition to Ethernet, the
VKP-8E also features RS-232 for control of legacy devices. For enhanced customization, the
VKP-8E incorporates a 2.7" e-ink display that supports multiple pages to dynamically change
icons and text associated with the buttons. LED indicators for each button and a multi-step
LED level indicator provide additional feedback to users. The VKP-8E is designed to mount in
one-gang US junction boxes and comes with both black and white faceplates that attach to the
button panel via magnets. Power over Ethernet (PoE) provides both power and data to the panel
over a single cable. For setup, the VKP-8E uses a revolutionary new configuration platform called
Atlona Cloud. It provides an intuitive interface for mapping control commands, text, and icons to
buttons using the extensive library of Atlona and third-party device drivers. When configuration is
complete, lightweight instructions can either be sent to the VKP-8E directly over the network or
stored in a file for later upload.
