    Description

    The MP-B20 is an enhanced pushbutton control panel designed for installation in a wall or podium. It can be used with any Crestron control system or presentation switcher, and it provides a perfect complement to any Crestron MPC Media Presentation Controller. Available in white or black, the MP-B20 is constructed to handle the rigors of everyday use in a typical classroom, meeting room, lecture hall, or training facility.

    Its 15 “hard key” buttons can be custom programmed to control any function, such as system power, input source selection, transport control, and lighting presets. The 5-way directional navigation pad enables full control of displays and other devices that utilize an onscreen menu. Audio volume and other parameters are adjustable using the control knob and LED bargraph. Custom backlit labeling of each button is facilitated using an assortment of pre-printed labels or Crestron Engraver software.

    A built-in IR receiver provides a gateway for RC-5 and Crestron compatible IR wireless remotes. An ambient light sensor is also included, which may be programmed to control the MP-B20’s backlight intensity and other customer functions. The MP-B20 can be powered through the network wiring using either Cresnet® or PoE (Power over Ethernet), requiring just one wire for operation.
