Password (Extension Tab)
Set a password for when buttons are pressed. Five passwords of up to 16 characters each can be set.
One password can be requested for each object. Refer to Passwords under 2-8 Common Functional
Object Functions for details.
Group (Extension Tab)
Group is used to create buttons that are to be exclusively controlled (i.e., only one button can be se-
lected out of multiple buttons). If the same group number is set to multiple buttons, this function en-
sures that only one button can be turned ON. Group numbers are specified on the Group Tab Page of
the ON/OFF Button Properties Dialog Box. Groups 1 to 16 can be selected for one screen.

♦
Group settings are enabled only when Momentary, Alternate, or SET button action is selected in the
properties settings. If the action type is set to RESET, the buttons will not operate according to
group settings.
♦
If the button is set to Alternate action and is pressed when ON, the button will turn OFF.
♦
This function is different from the group function executed by selecting Edit - Group – Group from
the menu bar or right-clicking and selecting Group from the pop-up menu.
♦
Set the same host address to buttons with the same group number. The buttons will not operate
normally if different host addresses are allocated.
♦
If the same group number is set to several Multifunction Objects, they will also be subject to exclu-
sive operation.
Control Flags (Extension Tab)
Control flags control the input and display of functional objects. Use control flags to enable display or
input when the contents of an address turn ON or OFF. Refer to Control Flags under 2-8 Common
Functional Object Functions for details.
