Step 6: Configure the Front Panel Buttons

Once the device drivers are added, you can configure the MLC's front panel buttons. For this exercise, you will configure Input and On/Off buttons. Additionally, you can modify a button caption, add a tool tip, set repeat rates, and select button modes.

NYou can customize any front panel button (DVD, VCR, On/Off, etc.) on an MLC, but most are shipped with the most common operations labeled for you.

Configuring an input button

Input buttons on the MLC 104 include the following, grouped together on the MLC front panel: VCR, DVD, PC, and a blank button for custom use.

NThe steps in the following example require using a serial port driver.

To configure the DVD button to switch to a DVD player when pressed, do the following:

1.

Select the Front Panel tab.

2.

Choose the green DVD input button.

3.Notice that the default in Line 1 (a caption field) reads DVD. You can change this to a different name, if desired, and set the tool tip, repeat rate, and button mode, if applicable.

4.

Under the Button Operations field, select the Driver tab

 

and expand the tree under the Epson PowerLite 7700p

 

projector icon. A list of possible projector operations

 

appear.

5.Expand the Input Control folder to view the input control options.

6.Drag the Video icon (under Input Control) over to either of the right-sided window fields labeled Press or Release. The one you choose determines whether the command will activate on the press of the button or on the release of it.

Notice that the Epson PowerLite 7700p projector now appears under your chosen Press or Release field, and the DVD button is marked with a red triangle. This indicates that the DVD button is now configured.

Configuring the On and Off buttons

Grouped within the Display section of the MLC 104 series front panel, the On/Off buttons can be used to power on or off a projector.

To configure the on/off buttons, do the following:

1.

In the window under the Front Panel tab, click the yellow

 

On button on the MLC 104 front panel.

2.

Under the Button Operations field, expand the tree under

 

the Epson PowerLite 7700p projector icon. A list of

 

operations appear.

3.Expand the Power Control folder to view the options.

4.Drag the On icon to the right-sided window field labeled Release. This sets the command to activate on the release of the button.

NFailure to configure the On or Off buttons on Release may cause problems with the PIN Mode feature. Refer to the MLC 104 User's Manual for details.

Notice that the Epson PowerLite 7700p projector now appears under the Release field, and the front panel On button is marked with a red triangle. This indicates that the On button is now configured.

5.

To configure the Off button, repeat steps 1 through 4.
