Buttons Tab
The L8-IN Input Modules each have a SOFT
button with indicating LEDs. These buttons are also
known as Programmable Buttons, and are designed
to perform user-programmable functions.
The Buttons tab is used to set up each button at
a basic level of functionality by using the
Function
drop-down box on the
Buttons
tab for the particular
button being used. The choices are:
•
None
– in this mode button presses are ignored
and the button does not light
•
Tally
– in this mode button presses are ignored
– the button illumination is controlled by a logic
signal programmed to do so
•
Toggle
– in this mode the button acts like a toggle,
with one press turning it on and the next press
turning it off – the button is illuminated by the
surface when in the on state and is not illuminated
in the off state
•
Momentary/Surface LED
– in this mode the
button has a momentary action, on while pressed
and off when released – the button’s illumination
is controlled by the surface, being lit while the
button is pressed
•
Momentary/LIO LED
– in this mode the button
has a momentary action, on while pressed and
off when released – the button’s illumination is
controlled by a logic signal programmed to do so
It’s important to note that, although basic functionality is set here, in all cases except
None
there will be additional configuration, needed to complete the desired functionality,
that must be done in the optional Navigator software. Refer to the
WheatNet‑IP Audio
Over IP Network
manual for details.
