Introduction

1.4 Actions, Labels and Button Number Limits

Table 4 lists the limit to the number of actions you can add to an action list as well as the number of buttons and labels in a Virtual Device when it is assigned to a specific Master RC:

Note 1: The number of actions is not limited by the software. Note that adding a large number of actions may slow the device response.

1.5How to Save a Project

When saving, writing or opening a new project, follow these important rules:

•In order to make uploading the project as stable as possible, projects are saved automatically before writing a configuration to a device. This behavior may overwrite the existing project.

If you want to keep the previous configuration as well, be sure to rename the project before writing it to the device

•Always change a project name via “Save as” in the software. If the project name is changed outside the K-Config software (for example, via the Rename function in a Windows folder view), it will not open correctly in K-Config

•When quitting K-Config, the open project will not be saved automatically. If needed, save the open project before quitting K-Config

•When opening a new project, you will be asked to name it by saving it. The default project name that appears in the “Save as” window will be the name of the currently open Project. It is recommended to change the name of the filename, otherwise the new project will overwrite the current project
