Button Definitions
There are different sets of button types for global suffix pages and for global navigation pages. See
Global Navigation on page 37.
Button Specification
The button definitions section has several controls:
The controls vary according to the button type.
Button Type
A pull-down menu where you may select a button type.
Button Caption Three text boxes in which you can enter three lines of button text up to 8 charac-
ters each. SE provides a default for the button caption.
Some buttons do not allow you to enter button text. Category buttons, for exam-
ple, use the category mnemonic as the button text.
Button Color A pull-down menu where you can select a button color: amber, blue, green, grey,
purple, red, or yellow:
Each of the 7 defined colors has two brightness levels.
Note : in usage, buttons are dark if their functions are disabled. Buttons are low
tally if they are available. Buttons are high tally when they are active. (An excep-
tion to this is the LCD brightness submenu when the panel is in menu mode.)
Some button types are never high-tally.
Check box “Place this button on all child pages.” When the operator presses a navigation
button, its target page appears on the buttons. Any page can have multiple navi-
gation buttons and therefore multiple target pages. If you check this option, the
button you are defining will occur,
in the same position , on all pages in the sub-
tree available through the navigation button.
A “back” button is a good candidate for such a button. The back button returns
the operator to the previous page. (Back buttons are automatically placed on list
pages and most navigation target pages.)
