KP-900 OWNERS MANUAL
Congratulations!
You’ve purchased a unique wireless control. The KP-900 can be used as both
a wall mounted keypad and as a hand-held remote control. The KP-900
achieves a magnificent combination of power and flexibility, simplifying and
automating operation of even the most complex system.
Wall Mounted Keypad and Hand-Held Remote Control
Once the wall bracket is securely installed on the wall, simply place the
KP-900 into the bracket. Magnets snap the KP-900 into place. To use as a
hand-held remote control, grasp the KP-900 from the top edge and pull it
away from the bracket.
One Touch Multi-Colored Backlighting
Press any button to backlight the screen and the hard buttons.
Integrated Sound Signaling
The KP-900 incorporates a small speaker for beeps. Anytime you press a
button, the KP-900 signals that it has understood your command with a
beep sound.
Custom Labeled Buttons
The KP-900 is equipped with a bright easy to read LCD screen which
labels the six buttons to the right of the screeen. These button labels
change based on what you are watching or listening to. Thus, if you have
selected Watching TV, you will see a list of buttons that are useful to that
activity, while if you select DVD, the buttons will control the DVD.
Pressing the MAIN button displays
the Main Menu pages of the KP-900.
When you select one of the activi-
ties listed, the entire functionality of
all the buttons changes to operate
the selected device.
Page 2
KP-900 OWNERS MANUAL
Optional RF “No Rules” Operation
In combination with a Complete Control RF Base Station, the KP-900 can
control your system without being in line-of-sight of the equipment.
The MSC-400, the MRF-350 or the MRF-260 RF base station are compatible
with the KP-900. All incorporate RF addressing. RF Addressing gives you the
ability to control equipment locations throughout your home, even if they are
concealed in other rooms or are behind closed doors.
4. Self-adhesive “Flashers” affix to the
Infrared sensors on the front panels of your
components. The Flashers relay commands
to components out of sight of the MRF-
350’s Front Blaster. The flashers plug in to
the MRF-350’s rear flasher line outputs via
their 10 foot cables. Uniquely, the MRF-350
can also connect to rear panel IR Inputs via
its adjustable IR Line Outputs.
3. The MSC-400 routes IR commands to the correct IR
Flasher.
1. The KP-900 sends radio waves
in every direction, so you don’t
have to point the remote any-
more!
2. The RFX-250 RF Sensor can be freely
positioned for optimal reception.

KP-900 OWNERS MANUAL
Securing the Wall Bracket
The KP-900 includes a wall bracket, four screws and four plastic caps to
conceal the screwheads. Consult with a professional installer before
attempting to secure the bracket to your wall. The included screws may
not be appropriate for your walls.
Before making a hole in your wall, gather the family and evaluate the best
height. Like a thermostat, the KP-900 should be at comfortable eye level
for most of the family, typically between 54” to 62” from the floor to the
top of the bracket (60” is typical).
Use a bubble level and a pencil to draw a line on the wall, then hold the
bracket in place. Screw in the four screws and cover the screw heads with
the included self adhesive caps.
Magnets in the bracket and the keypad keep the KP-900 securely in place,
yet make it easy to remove when you need a hand-held remote control.
Installing Batteries
There are two battery compartments on the rear of the KP-900. Each com-
partment holds two AAA batteries for a total of four AAA batteries.
Open each battery cover by pressing the release and pulling back the
cover on the back of the control. Remove the cover.
Observe the + and - polarity indicators on the batteries.
Drop a battery into the compartment with the - indicator up. Slide the
battery up into the top position and insert the second battery into place.
Now, replace the battery cover by inserting the hinged end in first, then
snapping the cover back into place.
Repeat the process with the second battery compartment.

KP-900 OWNERS MANUAL
Programming the KP-900
The KP-900 is programmed via a Windows PC equipped with a USB port
(programming cable included), using our proprietary software, KP-900
Editor. You can download this software from our website:
www.universalremote.com
Basic setup takes only a few minutes with this software. However, to fully
automate an audio/video system the user must have a detailed knowledge
of each component, you the user (and your preferences) and how the sys-
tem is connected and operated. We highly recommend that you use a
professional audio/video installer to program your KP-900 so you will be
able to enjoy all the benefits of the KP-900 as well as one touch operation
via macros.

KP-900 OWNERS MANUAL
Selecting a New “Activity”
The KP-900’s MAIN button displays the activities you can control with
your KP-900. When you want to listen to the radio or to a CD, touch the
MAIN button and select what you would like to listen to.
Your installer will have programmed the button you pressed to totally con-
figure your system to watch or listen to whatever you selected. Now, the
screen will change, and all of the LCD buttons will be reconfigured to
give you full control of your system while watching or listening to your
selection!
Press the PAGE button to see any other available choices.
When you press the MAIN button,
you can see the most frequently used
activities in your system.
PAGE DISPLAY
At the bottom of the LCD screen, the
page display informs you if there are
other pages of buttons available.
Optionally, your installer may have
programmed two group of activities
(i.e Watch and Listen). To access
either group, simply touch the
MAIN button again. The MAIN but-
ton cycles the display from Watch to
Listen , then back to Watch...
The LCD button
labels describe
special features
for this activity.

KP-900 OWNERS MANUAL
Using the KP-900 to Control an “Activity”
Once you’ve selected a new activity, the KP-900 displays the title of the
activity at the top of the screen. Below the title, the LCD displays the cus-
tomized names of any special features you need for the activity. All the
hard buttons of the KP-900 have now changed to functions optimized for
this activity.
The Title displays
what activity you
can control.
Each activity can
have many pages of
LCD labeled but-
tons. At the bottom
of the LCD the
page number is dis-
played.
All of the KP-900’s hard buttons change their function and now control the select-
ed activity.
Press the PAGE but-
ton to use the other
pages of LCD
labeled buttons.
Displaying the Setup Screen
You can adjust the settings of the KP-900 whenever you like by pressing and
holding both the MAIN and the SELECT buttons at the same time for three
seconds. When you do, the screen will change to the SETUP screen. If you
do not press any button on the SETUP screen within 30 seconds, the KP-900
will time out and automatically return to normal operation. You can return to
normal operation before that by pressing either the WATCH or the LISTEN
button.
Selecting from the Setup Screen
Simply touch the button for the setting you’d like to adjust:
At the same time, press and
hold both the MAIN button
and the SELECT button.
When the SETUP screen
appears, you can release the
two buttons.
