Labeling Buttons on the SCPs

The SCP 200 and SCP 250 have translucent panels (“windows”)
behind which customized labels can be inserted. To remove a
panel,

1.

Insert the head of a small Phillips screwdriver into the hole
in one end of the panel.

2.

Gently slide the tab on the edge of the panel out of the
recess in the SCP’s faceplate.

Premade templates and blank templates for the SCPs’ label
windows are printed in this chapter. However, you can easily
create, customize, and print labels by using the Button-Label
Generator software or any Brother P-Touch labeler.

Button-Label Generator software

The Extron Button-Label Generator program (Buttons.exe) is
shipped with the System 7SC, and it is also available on the
Extron Web site. This program is used to create and print labels
that can be placed in slots above/below buttons on the SCPs.

The program occupies approximately 0.5 MB of disk space. It
can be run on a diskette from a floppy drive, but it is more
convenient to load and run the program from a hard drive.

Installing the software

This program is installed at the same time and from the same
diskettes as the System 7SC control program. See the System
7SC User’s Manual
for details. The Button-Label Generator
program can be installed separately via the Download page of
the Extron Web site (http://www.extron.com). Follow the on-
screen directions if you install the program from the Web site.

By default, the Windows installation creates a C:\BUTTONS
directory, and it will place an icon (Button-Label Generator) into
a group or folder named “Extron Electronics”.

Using the software to make labels

1.

To run the Button-Label Generator program, double-click

on the Button-Label Generator icon (shown at
left) in the Extron Electronics group or folder,
and click OK when prompted.

2.

Under System selection, choose the item that corresponds to
the device for which you want to make labels: SCP 200, or
SCP 250. The button label editing area changes to reflect
the number and arrangement of buttons on the device.

3.

Using normal Windows controls, you can create and print
labels for the front panels of the SCPs.

SCP 250 template

This full-size template is a guide for cutting a hole for the
3-gang size electrical box for the SCP 250 or for the SCP 250
itself (if it will be installed directly into furniture or wall).
