introduction
The Key Digital® KD-WP8-2 is an eight-button control keypad. It fits into a single-gang wall box and is PoE-powered.
It's easy to program the KD-WP8-2 via web GUI to send commands directly to IP-controlled devices over the network.
Additionally, it can also send commands to RS-232 and IR devices through the built-in control port.
Integration with Key Digital Master Controllers
KD-WP8-2 may also be integrated with Key Digital Master Controllers to control additional IR, RS-232, and voltage relay devices. You can configure button events as desired for press, release, toggle, or press-and-hold actions.
Customizable Backlighting and Icon Sheets
Along with selectable blue or red backlighting, KD-WP8-2 includes multiple transparent icon sheets. You can easily insert the sheets beneath detachable transparent button caps to achieve a modern and professional appearance and create your own button icons with a uniform look and feel thanks to downloadable online button templates.
Key Combinations for Locking and Unlocking
The keypad allows you to lock and unlock using key combinations. You can use a virtual keypad with password-protected interfaces. These interfaces include web UI, Key Digital Management PC Software, and KD-App.
Efficient Project File Management
You can export and import completed project files to save programming time and easily set up multiple keypads in similar installations.
Open API for Effortless Integration
The simple open API for KD-WP8-2 enables easy integration with professional control systems including Q-SYS thanks to their certified plugin.
