Aten 8 Button Control Pad with 1 Gang US wall plate, 2 RS232, 2 relay, 1 Digital I/O and Ethernet connection support, 14 button layouts available

The ATEN VK0100 is an all-in-one 8-button Control Pad and controller designed to simplify centralized AV and facility management in small to midsize meeting rooms, classrooms, and collaborative spaces. Encased in a sleek 1-gang US wall plate, it provides an intuitive, customizable keypad interface alongside powerful control logic—all over a standard Ethernet connection.

Centralized Control & Integration

As part of the ATEN Control System, the VK0100 seamlessly integrates with the full family of ATEN hardware—matrix switches, extenders, scalers, cameras, and more—via your local network. It acts both as the main controller (handling command logic for RS-232, relay, digital I/O, and IP-based devices) and as a direct user interface, enabling immediate execution of actions from a simple button press.

Flexible Button Layouts

Designed around creative flexibility, the VK0100 lets you snap together between 4 and 8 buttons in any of 14 preconfigured layouts. Each button assembly clicks into the wall-plate chassis like building blocks, so you can:

• Arrange frequently used controls (projector on/off, volume up/down, screen down/up) in an ergonomic pattern
• Group related functions (lighting, shades, microphones) for quick, context-driven operation
• Swap out or reorient buttons on the fly without tools, minimizing downtime during room reconfigurations

Comprehensive Connectivity

• 2 × RS-232 serial ports for legacy AV devices (projectors, cameras, receivers)
• 2 × Relay channels for triggering contact-closure equipment (motorized screens, lights, door locks)
• 1 × Digital I/O port for external sensors or trigger input (occupancy sensors, paging systems)
• 1 × Gigabit Ethernet port for TCP/IP control of networked devices and seamless integration with ATEN Central Management Software (VK6000)

Intuitive Configuration with VK6000

ATEN’s VK6000 Configurator Software provides a drag-and-drop interface for mapping every button to your desired function or macro sequence. From a single dashboard you can:

• Program multi-step scenes (e.g., lower shades → dim lights → power on display)
• Define button states (toggle, momentary, latched) and LED feedback patterns
• Update firmware remotely and push configuration templates across multiple rooms

Rugged Design & Installation

Built to industry standards, the VK0100 mounts in any single-gang US electrical box or decorator frame. Its industrial-grade plastics and dependable snap-together buttons withstand hundreds of actuations, while its low-profile bezel blends into professional interiors. A black finish variant (VK01001) is also available as a build-to-order option.
