Audio Video Term

Keypad

Keypad is an audio video term for Chicago-area smart home, theater, and commercial AV projects.

Keypad is a wall control with buttons that can be labeled and programmed for lights, shades, scenes, audio, or whole-room commands.

Example of Keypad

A custom remote or touchscreen can start Apple TV, switch the receiver input, dim the lights, and set the correct room volume without juggling apps. In that kind of Davis control system project, the term Keypad would describe a wall control with buttons that can be labeled and programmed for lights, shades, scenes, audio, or whole-room commands. Davis would use that understanding to account for the control interface, button layout, macros, processor programming, and remote-support plan, then test the result in the actual room, document the related components, and show the client how to use the feature without needing to manage the technical details behind it.
