Step 4 : Adding Buttons
To add buttons, click on <Add Button #>. The buttons will appear on the keypad in the following order:
1 - 4 buttons:
5 - 8 buttons:
If you do not put a button in a specific slot, this place will be blank on the keypad, so you could have a keypad that looks like this:
Clicking on will bring up buttons previously made in the BUTTONS tab, which you can select, or to create a new button, click on New Button. This will bring up the NEW BUTTON page.
Input what you want the physical button to say in the first line, marked Name. Under VID, input the button's VID. This can be found on the design center report "Engraving Detail" in the far right column called Btn VID. You then have the option of turning the Default Commands ON or OFF.
When this is in the position, it will fill in the Send Command and Response Command with the VID number, which will automatically enable feedback and change the LED according to the button's status. In the position, the information will be entered as shown. You can also opt to enter this information manually.
NOTE: When you start the app, a signal will automatically be sent to the system to get an update of all of the led status's, and the button LEDs will change accordingly. Similarly, each time a button is pressed, this signal will be sent so that the LEDs show which buttons are pressed at all times.
Click the button in the upper right hand corner when you have finished editing your button, and this will automatically add it to the keypad.
To add a button that was previously made to the keypad, tap the button and a check mark will appear letting you know that this button is to be added to the keypad. You can check and add up to 8 buttons.
You can create these buttons by clicking into the BUTTONS tab.
This will open the BUTTONS page. From this page you can create new buttons, and edit existing buttons.
To create a new button, click the in the top right corner and the NEW BUTTON page will appear and you can follow the steps above. To edit a button, simply click on the name of the button you want to update, and from the page that opens you can make the necessary changes.
When you have finished creating and editing your button, press .
Do this for each button and each keypad. To remove a button or keypad, go to their respective tabs and slide (do not tap) your finger along the button or keypad name and will appear. You can add up to 10 keypads, and each can have from one to eight buttons.
** Please remember that the send commands MUST BE CAPITAL LETTERS BTN, as well as the response commands GETLED <VID#>.
