Button Labelling

Overview

NOVARA ControlPads, KeyPads and AxLink KeyPads come with a set of clear plastic Key Caps, which are
designed to fit tightly over the pushbuttons, and allow you to place a label on each button according to the
requirements of your particular installation.
NOVARA ControlPads, KeyPads and AxLink KeyPads also come with a pre-printed acetate sheet with a range
of 50 (pre-cut) button label inserts. The button labels provided will accommodate most installations, but it is
also possible to print your own button labels on acetate for custom button labelling.

The thickness of the acetate used must not exceed .004" (0.10 mm).
