Configuring a De-assign Button
De-assign will disconnect a reciprocal machine control path through a machine control router, parking sources to
their respective destinations. Similarly, if using resource management, de-assigning will park the resource inputs
and outputs and de-allocate the resource to be used in other routes.
To assign a de-assign button
1.
Open the RCP-ME Panel Config interface (see "To open the RCP-ME Panel Config interface" on page 22).
2.
On the simulated RCP-ME, select the button from which to de-assign a machine control port.
The Button configuration box opens.
3.
In the Button list, select Function Key.
4.
Use the Value list to select Deassign.
5.
Close the Button configuration box.
The simulated RCP-ME in DashBoard shows DE-ASN on the selected button.
6.
Send the current configuration file to the device (see "To send the current configuration to a panel" on
page 74).
