Text Engraving
Number This number is dictated by the selected device’s firmware and is intended to assist in navigat-
ing the keypad device file.
Name The button name is for use within KeypadBuilder only and is intended to assist in developing
unique names. The name is established in the Button Configuration module.
Menu Action If a menu action is assigned in the Button Configuration module, the action is displayed in this
field; otherwise, it is blank.
Text This is either the text or icon set to display on the button. The text is dictated by the font
selection. If you select Icon in the font selection, you could use letters to get the associated
icon but the Symbols drop down list is a simpler approach. There is a limit of 10 characters per
button.
Symbols The Symbols drop down list is available when you select AMX Icon in the font selection list.
The list is a collection of icons created by AMX. When you select an icon the corresponding
letter is placed in the Text field. If you select more than one icon it will not replace the previous
icon, but rather add it and display all selected icons.
Font Selection A drop down list of fonts supported by KeypadBuilder for use in engraving the buttons. Icons
must be selected to use the Symbols drop down list.
Scale A ratio ranging from 0.5 to 1.5. The larger the ratio, the more area of the button the text or icon
fills.
Note: If your font selection or scale is greater than the area of the button that can be engraved, you will
receive a warning in this field and KeypadBuilder will not create the .DXF file.
Update Confirms changes to the button engraving.
