Hi,

I am leaving a AudioAccess system to consolidate around a Denon AVRX4300H with 3 room amplifier. I would rather have one box than two.

As such, I wanted to replace the AudioAccess keypads with (2) RTI RKM-1 KEYPAD for the remote rooms and (1) RTI Model RP-6 Remote Control Processor. These would be used off eBay.

The Denon accepts IR signals via a IR input plug, so the scheme is to replace the KPS 101 keypads with the RKM-1 keypads.

1) If I source the parts of ebay, am I still not able to pull this off given that one cannot program these without software that is held by RTI and their vendors?

2) Presumably the 4 conductor wire needs to be replaced with 8 strand wire -- so I have that to contend with.

Is this a viable strategy, or am I basically going to fail. Is their an alternate approach that could repurpose the dacor sized control buttons?

Thanks for any input.

Well as you stated without the software which is only available to dealers I wouldn't recommend it.

RTI is not a DIY solution, they as a business are very clear on this. Like anything else in this world you could probably get your hands on the software.

Why not blank off the the keypads and add a Sonos system for audio. This is a quality DIY solution with sources included.

Harmony has plenty of DIY solutions for you Denon if still needed.

+1

With apps being so commonly used by folks nowadays, I see less and less reason for keypads.
There is no truth anymore. Only assertions. The internet world has no interest in truth, only vindication for preconceived assumptions.
