Choosing a Control System

A control system ties your AV together, so one interface operates displays, switchers, sources, and room functions. Key Digital Compass Control Pro is a fully integrated iOS-based control platform: a master controller communicates with equipment over IP, RS-232, and IR, and users drive it from an iPad or iPhone.

Build a system around the KD-CX800 master controller and control interface, add the KD-WP8-3 programmable button keypad for wall control, and use the KD-CCXR200 to convert a control port to a contact closure when a device needs a dry-contact trigger. Compass Control Pro activation licenses (KD-ProCL1, KD-ProCL4, KD-ProCL6, KD-ProCL8) enable one, four, six, or eight iOS devices per system.

Program and manage everything with free Key Digital software: the Compass Navigator PC Editor for building Compass Control Pro projects, KDMS Pro for product setup, and the KD-App for simple iOS control of app-ready devices. An authorized Key Digital dealer or programmer can design and commission the control system for your room.

Frequently asked questions

What is Compass Control Pro?

Compass Control Pro is Key Digital's fully integrated iOS-based control system. A master controller such as the KD-CX800 communicates with AV equipment over IP, RS-232, and IR, and users operate the system from an iPad or iPhone.

How many iOS devices can control one system?

It depends on the activation license. Compass Control Pro licenses are available for 1, 4, 6, or 8 iOS devices (KD-ProCL1, KD-ProCL4, KD-ProCL6, KD-ProCL8).

What is the difference between the KD-App and Compass Control Pro?

The free KD-App provides simple iOS control of individual app-ready Key Digital devices. Compass Control Pro is a full, programmable control system for integrating multiple devices and room functions under one interface.

What software do I need to program a Key Digital control system?

Use the Compass Navigator PC Editor to build Compass Control Pro projects and KDMS Pro for product setup and control. Both are free Windows applications from Key Digital.

Can I add a physical button keypad?

Yes. The KD-WP8-3 is an 8-button programmable keypad with IP, RS-232, and IR control, for wall-mounted control alongside the iOS interface.
