Use COM 4 or 5 for remote keyboard connections. Each port can support up to eight KBD100/200A/300A Series keyboards. Do not exceed
a total capacity of eight keyboards connected to the CM6800-32X6.

NOTE:  A KBDKIT or KBDKIT-X is required to connect remote keyboards. The KBDKIT(-X) consists of two RJ-45 wall blocks and one
transformer. Use one wall block for each keyboard.

If using COM 4, you will need to change the settings (the default setting is for a Genex Multiplexer). Refer to the 

Programming section for

instructions.

1.

Select a suitable location for each keyboard and wall block. Wall blocks must be within 6 feet (1.8 m) of a suitable electrical outlet.
Do not mount the wall blocks yet.

2.

Connect each keyboard to a wall block, using the data cable supplied with the keyboard.

3.

Remove the wall block covers and wire the connections between each wall block. Connect to a final wall block (which will be
connected to the CM6800).

Communication to the keyboards is RS-485. Pelco recommends using shielded twisted pairs cable that meets or exceeds the basic
requirements for EIA RS-485 applications.

4.

At each wall block, wire the KBDKIT(-X) transformer to pins 3 and 4. Polarity is unimportant.

5.

Replace the cover on the wall block. Secure the wall block to a suitable surface. A double-sided sticky pad is provided to mount the
wall block.

6.

Set the address switches for each keyboard according to Table D.

7.

Connect the final wall block to COM 4 or 5 on the CM6800-32X6, using a straight data cable (supplied with the CM6800).
