Button Information Window
Below the button navigation list of the Page Navigation window is the text box, Button Information
window.
The text area of the Button Information window provides which line is currently selected, if the button
has a page flip attribute assigned, the port address of the button and the channel code for the button.
In the event you have created a keypad page that drills down without any means of navigating back out,
this window will read
Page Flip = NeedPageFlip
. Allocate one of the buttons to return to another page
with further navigation.
Page Navigation Window
The Page Navigation window provides helpful information and quick navigation for editing button
features on selected pages. All pertinent page information is displayed in the visually appealing black
boxes complemented with the yellow text. The text box at the top of the Page Navigation indicates which
page you currently have selected an in view in the Design View Window. Below the page title is a button
navigation list for selecting and editing buttons on the current page.
The button navigation list contains 8 button regions and 2 "hidden" buttons that serve as navigation for
each keypad page. There are 4 possible button icon types found in the button navigation list. Select any
button and go to Project > Button Item Properties to edit or change any of the following button types.
Right-click on any button to access the List box Button Properties Dialog Window.
General Button
: The General buttons are the basic buttons in both the button select
Mio Modero DMS and touch select Mio Modero DMS Pinnacle. General buttons can serve as
page flips, list box navigators and provide feedback. There can only be 8 general buttons per
page.
Page Navigation Button
: KeypadBuilder includes a scroll up and down navigation
button with each keypad page. While the buttons are considered "hidden," some programming
properties can be edited. If a list box is present on the page, the Page Navigation buttons can
be assigned to navigate them. Page Navigation buttons can also be assigned page flips. The
Page Navigation buttons and General buttons 1 and 8 occupy the same buttons on Mio
Modero DMS devices. The Page Navigation properties will override the General button
properties in the event they differ.
List box Button
: KeypadBuilder makes use of the new format, List box buttons. Both
static and dynamic list boxes allow nearly limitless button options beyond the physical
limitations of device's General buttons. A list box button's display area is limited to the
number of button lines allocated to via the Page Configuration Dialog Window. A List box
button used in conjunction with a List box Navigation button can display several devices or
channels.
List box Navigation Button
: A List box button just isn't as cool as it could be without
its partner List box Navigation button. List box Navigation buttons have incremental options
that are assigned in the Button Properties Dialog Window. List box Navigation buttons are
necessary if your list box exceeds the line viewing area, e.g., the list box is 2 lines and you
have 3 devices in your list.
