Frequently Asked Questions — MPC4-201-B
Does the MPC4-201-B need a separate control processor?
No. It is a 4-Series control system processor and control panel in one wall-mount device, so no rack-mounted processor is required.
How is it powered?
By Power over Ethernet. It is an IEEE 802.3at Type 1 (802.3af compatible) Class 0 powered device with 3 W typical consumption.
Can it be set up without programming?
Yes. Built-in .AV Framework software provides a functional AV presentation system with web-based configuration. It is also fully programmable.
What back box does it fit?
It mounts in a 1-gang European (DIN 49073) electrical box, or a 2-gang U.S. box using the optional MPC3-101/102/201-RMB retrofit bracket. It can also be lectern-mounted in a 52 mm square cutout, or used on a table with the optional tabletop kit.
Can the buttons be labelled?
Yes. Each of the six buttons can use one of 25 prelabelled icon chips or a blackout chip (included), or custom laser-engraved chips (sold separately).
