Buttons
The
MLC 104 IP Plus Series
controllers have backlit buttons. The functions, events,
and scripts associated with these buttons are available with all models. Pressing the
corresponding button on an Extron SCP 104 keypad causes the functions of that button to
be executed exactly as if you had pressed a front panel button.
By default all buttons illuminate brightly when selected (active), and light dimly when
deselected. The button caps are removable so the button labels can be changed. Each

button can be set up to perform a
sequence of several functions, which can be combinations of the following options:
•
A driver operation
—execute an RS-232 or IR control command that is part of a
device driver (for a projector, VCR, DVD, audio source, or similar device)
•
A time delay operation
—insert delays between executed commands
•
A button light operation—
change the brightness, color, or flashing of a front panel
button
•
A digital input/output operation
—turn the digital output on or off, toggle it, or
pulse it
•
A user-defined RS-232 operation
—issue a non-driver-associated RS-232 command
(one that you programmed separately) via a specific port (MLS RS-232 or the projector
control port) or an internal command for the MLC, itself

Display On/Off buttons
— After they have been configured, press the
On
button
to turn the projector or display device on, and press the
Off
button to power it off. By
default, only one of these two buttons can be selected (active) at once. Through the
Global Configurator (GC) software, other functions can be associated with each of these
buttons.
NOTE:
To avoid conflicts with the front panel lockout PIN feature, Extron recommends
configuring the Display Power buttons so that the MLC sends projector or display
commands upon the button
release
instead of on the button
press
.
