The PX140 control can send signals with numbers between 0 and 255 to the panels. You can
add descriptions to the signals so that you can always make sure how they work. For that
purpose, select "PX181 USB" -> "PX140 signals" from the toolbar. A new window will be opened
where you can set up descriptions for each of the signals.
The "Get Signal Description" button lets you load descriptions pre-saved on PX181. The "Set
Signal Description" button lets you send a list of descriptions entered by the user to the panel. The
descriptions of signals are sent irrespective of other configuration.
The layout of pages created, transitions between the pages and events triggered by individual
items can be exported to a PDF file. To do so, select "File" -> "Save configuration to PDF” in the
toolbar. A preview window will be opened where you can highlight elements to be a part of the
PDF file.
