Programming Considerations for the CT610/310/600
Keypad Feedback
Whenever the user selects a new zone input, the CT610/310/600 will/can update the keypad. This has a lot of advan-
tages to the user, since the keypad will stay synchronized even if the user selects a new input via a remote control,
the front panel, a slave keypad, an RS232 macro or someone in the house uses a global command. Zone status feed-
back is accesible by pressing the backlight button.
TIP - Use Keypad Feedback in your systems, so that the  keypad displays zone input

The keypad is displaying the
currently selected source.
The USER selects RADIO on
the remote control.The remote
sends an IR command to the
CT610/310/600 and the Zone
Input is changed to FM radio.
Even when multiple slave key-
pads are daisy-chained to a sin-
gle zone terminal on the
CT610/310/600, keypad feed-
back works.Whenever the zone
input is changed, all keypads will
stay in “Sync”!
The CT610/310/600 sends an
RS232 message to all the key-
pads in this ZONE to jump to
the RADIO device, page 1.
