Panel Configuration
Adding To or Revising A Configuration
Configurations can be revised by adding channels and setups or revising
settings using the Newton Panel Configurator. Up to 128 channels each
with up to 12 setups (one for each soft key) can be created in a configuration
for download to a panel.
Note The number of channels allowed varies according to setup complexity when
more than about 70 channels are used.
Adding Channels
To add a channel to an existing configuration:
1. Load the configuration into the Newton Panel Configurator and select
the
New Channel button to bring up the Enter Name dialog box
( Figure 61 ).
For this example we will add a channel to 10pm_News for controlling
noise reduction with another module from the a different frame on the
network.

2. Locate the module on the NetConfig tree structure and drag and drop
the module, the 8981NR in this example, to the Module area to publish
the available parameters.
3. Name a first setup for the channel by selecting the New Setup button.
Noise_Reduction will be used for the first setup in the example.
4. Assign parameters to each knob. In this case we will assign the two
noise threshold controls to Knobs 1 and 2.
5. Create two more setups for Y, R-Y, B-Y gains and offsets and make knob
assignments.
6. Save the configuration to the 10pm_News file and download it to the
local panel.
