Creating a Date Button
A Date Button is a button that displays the current date on the panel. It is a read-only (non-interactive) button.
To create a date button:
1. Create a new button. The button can be of any type, but normally you would use the General button type.
2. In the Programming tab of the Properties window, click the Address Port field to enable the drop-down
menu.
3. Select 0-setup port from the drop-down menu (FIG. 327).
4. Click the Address Code field to enable the drop-down menu (none, Date Display, Intercom, Time
Display):
5. Click the plus (+) symbol next to Date Display to expose a drop-down menu of time display formats to
choose from (FIG. 329).
