black or ivory colors.

easy nighttime operation. To
adjust the backlighting make
sure the power for the keypad is
on and the MR64 is displaying:
System
The music system consists of:
1. Rooms with stereo speakers, a MR64 or MR60
keypad or infrared receiver and a remote control.
2. One or more MVP44a, MVP64a or MR640
controller(s).
3. One or more multi-zone amplifier if the MR640 is
used.
4. Stereo source components such as tuners, CD
players, satellite dish receivers, cassette decks, and
other components.
Off
Without pressing any other buttons press the UP or
DOWN button to increase or decrease the
backlighting illumination. The level selected will
remain in the memory even if the power is
disconnected.
Turning on a source to this room with the MR64
keypad. After the system is completely installed, if
the system is not yet turned on, turn the sources on
and then turn the MVP controller amplifier on. If this
system has a MR640 controller and another
amplifier, make sure they are turned on and
powered up.
While the MR64 evolved after years of research, its
use is straightforward and direct. Some rooms may
have more than one pair of speakers but only one
keypad or possibly even no keypad.
The music system is controlled by the MR64 and
MR60 keypads, RB8 or universal remote, the source
components and possibly a whole home controller.
The source components are controlled by their
individual remote controls by aiming the remote
control at the keypad or infrared receiver and
pressing the appropriate remote control button.
After power has been turned on
the MR64 keypad will display its
software revision followed by
“Knoll Systems” and then:
System
Off
To turn a source on in this room press the INPUT
button. The volume is always set at about 30% when
the room speakers are first turned on. This room will
always revert to the source it was switched to when
it was turned off last time. To change to another
source, see changing sources below.
Please read about the MVP44a, MVP64a or MR640
with the manual shipped with that product.
MR64 Keypad Operation
The MR64 keypad is relatively easy to operate and
within a short period of time should be very intuitive.
Turn on a source in this room using the RB8
Remote Control. To turn on a source in this room
using the RB8 remote control press the RB8 remote
control 1, 2, 3 or 4 button corresponding to which
source you want to listen to. You do not need to
press the POWER button on the remote first.
Please ensure that keys are not pressed too fast as
the controller or keypad may be confused. If this
happens reset the system powering it off and then
on again.
Whole house source selection is not available from
the RB8 remote.
