IconMaster Installation and Configuration Manual 221
Chapter 9: Enabling a RouterMapper Database for Use with an IconMaster System
When a source name is entered in the database, RouterMapper uses the
name to automatically create a category. RouterMapper finds the last
space in the source name, and then uses all characters to the left of that
space as the category (the space will be included in the category name).
All characters to the right of the space will become the index. For
example, if a logical source is named “VTR 1,” RouterMapper will
create a category named “VTR.” If the source name does NOT include
a space, the entire name will be used to create the category name. For
example, if “VTR1” is typed without a space, the category “VTR1” will
be created. This may limit the number of sources that can be accessed
from the panel. Use spaces appropriately when naming sources. If any
character after the space is not a valid index character (valid characters
are any combination of numbers, 0-9), the entire name will be used to
create the category name. For example, if “VTR 10Z” is typed, a
category named “VTR 10Z” will be created (not a category “VTR” and
an index “10Z”).
9. If you made changes on any of the router tabs, the message “Needs
Download” will appear next to the router name listed on the RouterMapper
main menu window. Highlight the router and click Download to download
the revised settings to the router.
10. Save the database. (The default database name is default.DA4. You can save
the database under another name if desired, but do not change the DA4
extension.) Remember the filename and path for this database, as you will
need to enter this information later.
11. Close the RouterMapper application.
