Button Labels

Page 162 provides strips of blank button labels. If desired, copy them or cut them out, write button information in each button area as desired, and put them in the input or output button windows. You can also create labels using the Button-Label Generator software (see “Button-Label Generator“ in the “Matrix Software” section).

Installing Labels

Install new labels in the matrix switcher front panel buttons as follows:

1.Make new labels using either the blanks on page 162 or the Button-Label Generator software. Cut them out.

NOTE: For best results, print on transparent or translucent material..

2.Remove the button from the MTPX: use a small, flat bladed screwdriver to gently pry a button out from the front panel (see figure 99).

3.Locate the notch in the corner of one side of the clear button cap lens.

4.Separate the white backing (diffuser) from the clear button cap (lens): insert the blade of the small screwdriver into the corner notch and gently twist the blade.

5.Save the translucent, white diffuser, but remove the text/label insert from the transparent button cap lens.

6.Insert the replacement button label into the button cap. Check for correct label orientation.

7.Align the white diffuser plate with the cap (lens). The bumps on the diffuser plate should be aligned (top and bottom) with the notches on the clear button cap. Firmly snap it into place.

8.Align the tabs on the plunger of the MTPX with the notches on the diffuser plate.

Gently, but firmly, press the reassembled button into place in the front panel of the switcher.

9.Repeat steps 2 through 8 as needed to relabel other buttons.
