Button-Label Generator Program
The Button Label Generator software creates labels that you can place in the
translucent covers of the input and output pushbuttons. You can create labels with
names, alphanumeric characters, or even color bitmaps for easy and intuitive input
and output selection. See appendix B,
Specifi cations, Part Numbers, and Accessories
,
for blank labels and procedures for removing and replacing the translucent covers.
The program is contained on the same set of 3.5-inch diskettes as the Matrix
S Control Program and is installed automatically when you install that
program.
By default, the Windows installation goes in either the C:\MTRX50 directory,
if installed automatically with the Matrix S Control Program, or the
C:\BUTTONS directory, if installed as a stand-alone program. The Button-Label
Generator icon is placed in the “Extron Electronics” group or folder.
