The PageMatrix application simplifies the process of programming the remote stations. A grid matrix is presented that lists each button for the selected station. HB stands for hardware button and the following number signifies the specific button on the station. Station buttons are displayed in rows and potential zone assignments in columns.

To assign the button, simply left-click the desired zone to select it (a bold outline appears around the selection), then right-click to confirm (turns red).

Zones represent physical locations and outputs

connected via MediaMatrix BoB outputs, amplifiers, and speakers. Note: If you only use one BoB, a maximum of 8 zones will be available.

Programming the Paging Stations with the PageMatrix application [note: see the next chapter (Menu Bar) for additional information]

Use the ÒInsert StationÓ or ÒAdd StationÓ (Edit Menu) as necessary to include your hardware stations in the programming. After setting up the PageMatrix application, the layout on the left displays a column listing all the connected paging stations. To the right is a matrix list of zones at the top and columns of buttons by number. Select the station you wish to program first, then use the mouse to activate zones for each button. When finished, download the configuration to the Pagematrix controller (File menu). Now your page station buttons are programmed and ready for use.

Naming Zone Presets When Using the Station Ten

With the Station Ten, a 20 x 2 display is provided for viewing the zone presets. The zone presets are named within the PageMatrix application. When a 10 button station is inserted (Edit/Insert Station), the LCD Text option appears at the top of the screen. Simply select a virtual button, then highlight the default title and rename as you wish up to 16 characters.
