Buttons
The MLC 104 Plus Series controllers have backlit buttons. The functions, events,
and scripts associated with these buttons are available with all models. Pressing
the corresponding button on the Extron IR 402 remote control or an Extron SCP 104
keypad will cause that button’s functions to be executed exactly as if you had
pressed a front panel button.
By default all buttons illuminate brightly when selected (active), and light dimly
when deselected. The button caps are removable so the button labels can be changed.
Each Display On/Off, Function/Room, and Input button can be set up to perform a
sequence of several functions, which can be combinations of the following options:
• a driver operation—execute an RS-232 or IR control command that is part of a
device driver (for a projector, VCR, DVD, audio source, etc.)
• a time delay operation—insert delays between executed commands
• a button light operation—change a front panel button’s brightness, color, or
flashing
• a digital input/output operation—turn the digital output on or off, toggle it, or
pulse it
• a user-defined RS-232 operation—issue a non-driver-associated RS-232 command
(one that you programmed separately) via a specific port (IR/Serial Out A, B, C;
or the projector control port) or an internal command for the MLC, itself
