Download from keypad:
Downloads the configuration from a connected AX-KPB keypad or AX-KPC 2.8 touch
panel to the Axium keypad manager. This can be useful for:
Downloading infra-red commands that have been learnt on a KPB or KPC.
Downloading configurations that have not been previously saved to disk for
programming other KPBs or KPCs.
Note that due to storage restrictions on the KPC 2.8, downloaded images and sounds
may not have the original quality. Also, to prevent unnecessary duplication, do not
mix downloaded images and sounds with the same images and sounds from the
galleries.
Note that the term “download” is synonymous with “receiving” data from the PC's
perspective.
Upload to keypad:
Uploads the current configuration to a connected AX-KPB keypad or AX-KPC 2.8
touch panel. Any existing configuration will be erased. This command can also be
understood as “programming” the keypad or touch panel.
Note that the term “upload” is synonymous with “sending” data from the PC's
perspective.
Verify Configuration (KPC only):
Compares the configuration in the connected AX-KPC 2.8 to the current configuration.
This is useful for ensuring that an upload has been performed error free or for
checking if a particular saved configuration has been used on a KPC or not.
Advanced (KPC only):
Contains advanced features for firmware updates and diagnostics.
Axium Settings (KPB only):
Opens the Axium settings window, where the Axium Zone, Device (amplifier or
preamplifier), Source assignments, IR receiver enable/disable, Source, Volume
Indicator and Backlighting brightness settings in the configuration can be set. See
Configuring Axium Settings
