ZIP that contains the example program, associated files and a README. TXT file that describes the program. Programming with VT Pro-e The RF ID for communicating with the RF receiver, Grp group names, and labels for all of the soft keys are stored on the ML-500 using VT Pro-e. VT Pro-e can also be used to program page jumps for FAV soft key presses. NOTE: The following are acceptable file extensions for programs that include a ML-500: . vtp projectname. vtp (VT Pro-e source file) . hex projectname. hex (compiled file) After creating an ML-500 project in VT Pro-e, double-click Design Pages (as shown in the following diagram to open the "Design Pages & Text" window. Double-Click Design Pages NOTE: ML-500 projects have a defined page-subpage structure and cannot be converted into VT Pro-e projects for other devices. Similarly, VT Pro-e projects for other devices cannot be converted to an ML-500 project. The "Design Pages & Text" window, shown in the following diagram, is used to set the RF ID of the ML-500, create Grp groups, create pages within a Grp group, and to create labels for programmed soft keys.
