Introduction
The SYN-KEY10 is a 10-button IP enabled keypad controller is a solution designed to provide a simple and
easy way to control devices and specific actions. Devices including WyreStorm Synergy and Apollo
products, as well as most 3rd party devices over TCP/IP or RS232 and can be powered via PoE or universal
PSU (sold separately). The KEY10 comes with a single gang decora and can be mounted into a single gang
wall box or can be fitted into a conference room table. With up to 10 presets, the KEY10 is an ideal solution
to automate multiple actions and themes in conference and huddle room settings and even residential
spaces.

WebUI. Each button stores up to 6 commands. Note: Pressing the bottom
two buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds until all backlights blink 3 times
will restore the device to factory default settings.

Power Connections
There are two methods of powering the SYN-KEY10; via PoE over Cat/Ethernet cable with a capable PoE device
(switch, router, PoE injector). This method is recommended if available, however, if using a non PoE network device, or
no connection to a network is needed, then a universal power supply can be used. Note: 12V and equal to or more than
0.5A is acceptable. See below diagram for connections.
•With the power supply disconnected from the outlet, cut the barrel end off.
•With the barrel end cut off, divide the two cables apart. Remove 2-3mm of insulation at the tips,
exposing copper, twist if needed. Note: it is recommended to pull the strips apart or carefully slice
down the middle.
•Connect the separated cables into the 2-pin phoenix connector, provided. In most cases, the
black/white cable is reserved for positive and solid black is for negative. Please refer to the labeled +/-
indicators printed on the SYN-KEY10 and the power supply’s manufacture pinout polarity. Insulate
where needed and check continuity for proper connections before use.

Connections, Operation and Application
Connection and Operation
Below demonstates the connections to access and configure the SYN-TOUCH10 via WebUI
TCP/IP Control
1. Connect the SYN-KEY10, PC and device(s) to be controlled to the same network (PoE enabled switch must be
used to power SYN-KEY10 over Ethernet)
2. If PoE is not available, connect a 12V power supply (as shown above) to power the keypad.
3. Install the SYN-KEY10 into a wallbox or table configured to accept a 1-gang device. Note: Power on and test all
devices before final installation
TCP/IP Application
Controlling over TCP/IP means multiple devices can be controlled over the network, see below application example.

RS-232 Control
1. Connect the device to be controlled to the RS232 port on the back of the SYN-KEY10 with the provided 3-pin
phoenix connector
2. Connect the SYN-KEY10 to a power source (Ethernet switch or power supply)
3. Install the SYN-KEY10 into a wallbox or table configured to accept a 1-gang device. Note: Power on and test all
devices before final installation
RS-232 Application
Controlling over RS232 means only a single device can be connected and controlled. See below application example:
Note: While it is uncommon, it is possible to control a single device over RS232 while controlling multiple devices over
TCP/IP at the same time.

Accessing the Web UI
The Web UI can be accessed through a browser, e.g. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, IE10+, etc.
1. Connect to the LAN port of the SYN-KEY10 to the Ethernet switch/router using a CAT5e/6 cable.
Note: If the switch/router does not support PoE, connect a 12V DC power adapter to the keypad
2. Connect a PC to the same switch/network
3. Using an IP scanner, search for the IP address of the SYN-KEY10. The exact name will show.
Note: Alternatively, reference the unique MAC address sticker found atop the SYN-KEY10
4. Type the IP address in your browser and hit enter. The following will be shown below.
5. Input the default username and password: “admin”
6. Upon logging in, you will be prompted to change your username and password.
