The important thing to remember is that the Press fields in the Command E E ditor are directly associated
with the Active S S tate fields in the Status E E ditor and the Release fields in the Command E E ditor are directly
associated with the Inactive S S tate fields in the Status E E ditor.
2. Click the key you wish to customize and select the command and parameters for that command that you
desire--you can choose from MACRO, MUTE, and NONE for the mute key or RAMP, GAIN, MACRO, and
NONE for the volume keys. All commands and parameters are standard XAP commands and parameters.
If you need further clarification of any of these commands or parameters, please refer to the specific XAP
User's Manual for your system. Note that the command NONE means that the key will be inactive and that
nothing will happen when it is pressed or released.
Note: When you use the MACRO command, be sure that your macros are correct. Controller Builder
>
does not control macros, it simply programs your controller to run the macro when the specific key is
pressed or released and then display the results you desire in the controller's display window.
3. The Active T T ext and Inactive T T ext fields, when editable, allow you to input the text (no more than 16
characters) you wish to have displayed on your Tabletop Controller's display window when the specific
state occurs. For example, you might have a macro command running on the XAP 400 that will activate all
microphones on channel 1 on that device. When this occurs, you want all microphones on the XAP 800,
channel 4 to be disabled and the text, "Microphones disabled" to be displayed on the Tabletop
Controller's display window when the macro runs. Input whatever text you want displayed into these fields.
4. When you are finished, save your settings by clicking the Save icon.
5. Click the Upload D D ocument t t o t t he C C ontroller icon to transfer the settings to the controller. The controller
display shows the status of the settings being downloaded to the controller and when the transfer is
completed.
>
Note: If you do not upload the settings to the controller before closing Controller Builder, then your
Tabletop Controller WILL NOT be programmed with the new settings--changes made in Controller
Builder are not automatically uploaded to the controller.
