3Input and output label windows — These translucent panels can be removed and replaced to insert labels behind the panels. To remove a panel, insert the Phillips-head end of a Tweeker or small Phillips-head screwdriver into the hole in one end of the panel, and gently slide the tab at the edge of the panel out of the recess in the switcher housing.

Input and output labels can be created easily with Extron’s button label generator software, which ships with every Extron Matrix Switcher, or with any Brother® P-Touch™labeler. Each input and output can be labeled with names, alphanumeric characters, or even color bitmaps for easy and intuitive input and output selection (figure 3-3). See chapter 5, “Matrix Software”, for details on using the label software.
