Adding a Control Panel
4 In the ‘Button Layout’ section select a blank button and then in the ‘Button Definitions’ sec-
tion, select a definition for the button from the drop-down list. The button definition appears on
the selected button in the ‘Button Layout’ section.
There are two classes of buttons:
• Those that assign a dedicated function to a button directly, such as ‘Def State’ (default state)
or ‘Clear’.
• Those that define a variable function, such as ‘Category’. Additional options display
enabling you to define the variables.
Select from the following button options:
Deselect All
Destinations and
Turn off Hold
after Take
Hold normally has two functions: (1) allow multiple
selections prior to a “take” and (2) retain the selections after
the “take” with Hold remaining in effect.
When this option is selected, a Hold performs the first
function
— allow multiple selections prior to a “take”— but
not the second. The Hold deselects all destinations and turns
itself off after the “take”.
This option helps eliminate the time-consuming process of
finding all and deselecting destinations on many pages after a
“take” has been performed.

Use Continuous
Scrolling
If checked, the panel scrolls source or destination devices
continuously. That is, the display shows the first device in the
list following the last when scrolling up, and shows the last
device after the first if scrolling down.
If unchecked, the panel stops scrolling when it reaches either
the beginning or end of the list.
This option does not affect scrolling of salvos when the panel
is in salvo mode or levels when the panel is in level mode.

the categories (or none) from the category lists.
Choose one of the suffixes (or none) from the suffix
list.
