Button Labelling
Overview
Novara ControlPads, KeyPads and AxLink KeyPads come with a set of clear plastic Key Caps, which are designed to fit
tightly over the pushbuttons, and allow you to place a label on each button according to the requirements of your
particular installation.
Novara ControlPads, KeyPads and AxLink KeyPads also come with a pre-printed acetate sheet with a range of 50
(pre-cut) button label inserts. The button labels provided will accommodate most installations, but it is also possible to
print your own button labels on acetate for custom button labeling.
Installing Acetate Button Labels and Key Caps - READ THIS FIRST!
1.
Punch out the desired Button Label from the included acetate sheet.
If you have printed your own custom button labels on acetate, cut each button label to fit inside the Key Caps.

Custom button labels must be cut to a 0.472" (12 mm) square to fit securely inside the Key Caps.

The thickness of the acetate used must not exceed .004” (0.10 mm).
2.
Place the Key Cap face-down, and insert the Button Label into the bottom of the Key Cap (FIG. 29).

Orient the Button Label inside the Key Cap so that the two clips are located on the left and right sides of the
readable text on the Button Label, as indicated in FIG. 29.

Be sure to place the Button Label face-down inside the Key Cap (see FIG. 29), otherwise the label will be
seen in reverse once the Key Cap is installed.
3.
Install the Key Cap on the pushbutton (FIG. 30):
