Keypad Installation - Russound MDK-C5 User And Installation Manual

Keypad Installation

For best viewing and usage, the MDK-C5 should be
mounted at thermostat height, or about 58"-60" (1.5m) from
the floor.
To install a double-gang keypad, you will need a UL/CSA
approved plastic 32ci double-gang wall box. Attach the box
to the wall with appropriate fasteners.
For installations employing a retrofit box or P-ring, the two
foam spacers on the rear of the keypad's metal back plate
can be removed for a better fit.
Route CAT-5e wire to the wall box from the controller. There
should be not more than 250 feet of CAT-5e cable between
the keypad and the controller.
Terminate the CAT-5e cable with an RJ-45 connector, using
the T568A wiring standard. Insert the RJ-45 connector into
the jack marked "Controller" on the back of the keypad.
Mount the keypad in the wall box and attach the cover
plate. Repeat the steps until all keypads are installed.
