KPDesign Keypad Design Program
Introduction
The KPDesign software design program enables creation of user interface (UI) pages for the PLK-
DMS and PLK-IMS KeyPads. This design tool provides a method for programmers and system
designers to create a set of pages, menus, and an associated output file. KPDesign generates KPD
files that can be imported into a Project in the NetLinx Studio program.
The NetLinx Studio compiler uses Modules (code blocks) to accommodate KPDesign files in the
compiled Source Code file, and handles transferring the code to the Master, and to the keypad(s).
Features:
!
Set temperature display as Fahrenheit or Centigrade (default is Fahrenheit)
!
Set temperature minimum and maximum limits
!
Set display to large or small with right, center, or left justification with word wrapping
(PLK-DMS only)
!
Up, Down, Enter, Contact, Mic, and Temperature Compensation configuration for a
selected keypad
!
Channel maps of push channels, variable text
!
Quick link simulation to associated pages
!
Auto Assign push channels and/or variable text channels for one or more selected items.
