Modula Instruction Manual

To customize the channel names:

1.

In the Virtual Matrices view, click the “+” to the left of the Virtual Matrix.

2.

Click the “+” to the left of the Sources or Destinations folder.

3.

Select the channel you want to rename.

4.

Enter the new name in the Name field in the right-hand pane and press Enter.
The new channel name replaces the default channel name in the Sources or Destinations list.

Note

If a channel is in more than one VM (virtual matrix), you must repeat Step 4 for the channel in 

each of the VMs.

5.

Customize additional channels by repeating Steps 3 and 4.

6.

Load the configuration file onto the system (see page 156). 
If channel names are the only modifications that have been made to the file, use the “Configure 
System Namespace” option (found under Configure \ Configure Special – Virtual Matrix).

7.

Using Save As (under the File menu), make a duplicate copy of the modified file with a new name 
and save it to the PC. (We 

strongly

 recommend making a duplicate copy every time the file is 

modified.)

Caution:

 

The system must not be actively switching when loading this information onto the system.
