Mini USB Connector:

Software and Programming:
- Installation: Suitable USB drivers must be installed (normally included in Windows). The software can run "stand-alone", without any installation
- Connection: The control panel can be connected to the computer via USB or RS232 for programming and to default the functions of every button
- Action sets: Add an action to the action list, then add the desired resulting events to this action to make the action execute the events
- The firmware is updatable via USB

Software buttons:
- There are three different "key colors" available in the panel setup of the software - white, blue and yellow
- The white buttons represent the 8 physical buttons on the front panel itself
- The blue and yellow software buttons can be setup with a special function or action set and then assigned to one of the white buttons
- This means, one physical button can trigger a nearly unlimited set of commands and actions

Note:
- This control panel can activate different ports at the same time, allowing every button to send RS232 / RS485 commands, IR code and control the relay at the same time.
- RS232 port 1 and IR port 2 share the same port, the detailed use depends on the individual software settings. When used in RS232 mode, only a unidirectional transmission without receiving at the same time is possible.
