Using the Matrix Switcher Help File

For information about program features, you can access the Matrix Switcher Control

Program help file by any of the following methods:

• From the Extron Electronics program folder or Start menu group, select

the MATRIX Switcher + Help icon (shown at right).

Help menu on the matrix window.

Creating Button Labels

The button caps are pre-labeled for your convenience by default. However, you can

replace them with the included additional printed button labels or with labels that you

create and print yourself. Page 103 contains blank button labels. If desired, photocopy

them or cut them out of the guide, write button information in each button area as desired,

and insert them in the switcher input or output button caps. You can also create labels

using the Button Label Generator software (see “Using the Button Label Generator”).

Using the Button Label Generator

The Button Label Generator software creates labels for the DXP input and

output buttons. You can create labels with names, alphanumeric characters,

icons, and even colored bitmaps for easy and intuitive input and output

selection. See “Replacing Button Labels” on the next page for procedures

for removing and replacing the button covers and changing the labels.

The program is contained on the same DVD as the Matrix Switcher Control Program,

and is installed automatically when you install the control software. By default, the

software installation creates a directory for the program at C:\Program Files\Extron\

ButtonLabelGenerator

. The Button Label Generator icon is placed in the Extron

Electronics group or folder.

1. To run the label creation program, double-click on the Button Label Generator icon

(shown at right) in the Extron Electronics group or folder. The Button Label Generator

window opens.
