Removing and Installing Button Labels

Figure 69 on the next page 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 windows of the input or output buttons. You can also create labels using the Button Label Generator software (see Button Label Generator Program on page 91).

Installing Labels in the Buttons

Install new labels in the front panel buttons as follows:

1.Remove the button from the matrix switcher; use a small, flat bladed screwdriver such as an Extron Tweeker to gently pry a button out from the front panel (see figure 68).

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

3.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.

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

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

6.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.

7.Align the tabs on the base of the matrix switcher with the notches on the diffuser plate. Gently, but firmly, press the reassembled button into place on the front panel of the switcher.

8.Repeat steps 1 to 7 as needed to relabel other buttons.
