26		-Note that while it is possible to use the XPanel UI to change a keypad from a standard keypad type to a custom X-Type keypad, defining custom functions is only possible through the showrunnerHUB™ UI or by editing the configuration manually. When a keypad is changed into an X-Type keypad using the XPanel UI, the keypad will perform any actions that are defined in the configuration. If no actions are defined, then it will not perform any functions.
	26	+Note that while it is possible to use the XPanel UI to change a keypad from a standard keypad type to a custom X-Type keypad, defining custom functions is only possible through the showrunnerHUB™ UI or by editing the configuration manually. X-Type keypads will perform any actions that are defined in the configuration. If no actions are defined for the keypad, then it will not perform any functions as an X-Type keypad. This means that correctly configured X-Type keypads can be changed into standard type keypads and then changed back into X-Type keypads without any loss of the custom functionality, but that standard type keypads cannot be changed into X-Type keypads without also configuring their custom actions using the showrunnerHUB™ UI or manually editing the configuration file.

46	46	The showrunner™ X-Type keypad is a customizable keypad type available for Cameo, Horizon, GLPPA-KP, and Zūm Wired keypads. See[[ this document>>attach:SHOWRUNNER™ User Guide & Wiki.SHOWRUNNER™ Keypad Types.WebHome@showrunnerKeypadStyles.pdf]] for a list of possible keypad layouts for all keypad types. It is recommended to customize keypads using the showrunnerHUB™ UI whenever possible, as keypads which have been manually customized in the configuration will be missing certain attributes that are required to allow them to be subsequently editable from the showrunnerHUB™ UI.
