Installing the software

The program is included on the same set of 3.5-inch diskettes as the ISS/ISM control program and is installed automatically when you install that program. It can also be downloaded from the Extron Web site (http://www.extron.com).

By default, the Windows installation goes in either the C:\ISSISM directory, if installed automatically with the ISS/ISM Control Program or the C:\BUTTONS directory if installed as a stand-alone program. The Button-Label Generator icon is placed in the “Extron Electronics” group or folder.

Using the software

1.To run the Button-Label Generator program, double-click the Button-Label Generator icon (shown at left) in the Extron Electronics group or folder, and click OK when prompted. Extron’s Button- Label Generator window appears (figure 5-7).

2.Under System selection, choose Mtx50/MAV/XPoint. This selection creates the correctly sized labels for the ISM’s label strip. The button label editing area changes to reflect the number and arrangement of buttons on the device.
