Installing or Replacing Button Labels
The button caps are pre-labeled for your convenience by default. However, you can
replace them with button labels that you create, using the Button-Label Generator
or other button label software.
The button assembly consists of a clear lens cap, the button label, and a white
diffuser. (See the illustrations at right and below.)
Remove the button assembly from the MGP as follows:
1.
Make any desired button labels and cut them out.
2 . Remove the button assembly by inserting a small,
flat-bladed screwdriver between the button’s base
and the diffuser to gently pry the button assembly
off the button plunger, as shown in the illustration
at right ( b ).
3 . Locate the small corner notch on the lens cap, and
slide the screwdriver between the lens cap and the
diffuser. (See c in the illustration below.)
4 . Using a rotating motion of the screwdriver, carefully
pry the two pieces apart. (See d in the illustration
below.)

align the white backing plate with the cap, and firmly snap it into place.
7 . Gently, but firmly, press the reassembled button into place on the MGP front
panel.
8 . Repeat steps 1 through 7 as needed to relabel other buttons.
