configuration view
panel view
Underneath DEVICES is a list of devices, and underneath MACRO GROUPS is a list of macro groups.
Underneath HOME, every device and every macro group is a property item and a list of panels. The property
item underneath HOME provides access to the USR-5 system properties, and the property item underneath a
device or macro group provides access to the properties of that device or macro group.
Included in these properties are the definitions of the direct-access and left/right keys.
On the right side of ChadEdit’s main window you’ll find panel views. A panel view displays the contents of a
Introduction
What is ChadEdit?
ChadEdit is the visual editor for USR-5 configurations. A USR-5 configuration fully defines a USR-5 user
interface including all devices, macro groups, panel layouts, button appearances, and button, direct-access and
left/right key behaviors (including all IR codes). ChadEdit always has a single configuration open, the current
configuration. See What is a CCF? for more information on USR-5 configuration files.
ChadEdit provides two complementary views on the current configuration. On the left side of
ChadEdit’s main window you’ll find the configuration view, a typical tree view of the overall structure of the
current configuration. At the top level of this tree view you’ll find HOME,DEVICES and MACRO GROUPS.
These top levels are associated with the home section, the right hand side device menu and the left hand side
macro group menu on your USR-5.

panel as it is defined in the current configuration. Panel views provide an up to date view on the current
configuration, and any changes to a panel view are immediately incorporated into the current configuration.
What is ChadEmulator?
ChadEmulator is a separate application, although part of the ChadEdit package, which emulates every aspect of
a real USR-51. You can use ChadEmulator to test drive your configuration without the need to download it to
your USR-5. At any time you can launch ChadEmulator from ChadEdit by clicking on in the toolbar or
selecting Run Emulator from the Tools menu.

What is a CCF?
A CCF, or USR-5 configuration file, stores a single USR-5 configuration. A USR-
5 configuration fully defines a USR-5 user interface including all devices, macro
groups, panel layouts, and button appearances and behaviors (including all IR
codes). CCFs have file extension ‘ccf’ and icon , and contain the following
kinds of information:
•APanel defines the rectangular area of your USR-5’s screen between the
menu bars at the top of the screen and the gray bar at the bottom of the
screen.
A panel consists of up to 255 frames or buttons, and in turn every frame
can contain up to 255 frames or buttons. Frames are inactive user interface
elements with either a background color or a bitmap, and a name. Buttons
are active user interface elements with a background color or a bitmap for
each of four different states, a name, and an action list. An action list is a
list of up to 255 actions. An action can be a delay, an IR code, or a reference
to another action list. The last action of every action list can be a jump to a
specific panel.
•ADevice is a list of panels plus an action list for every USR-5 direct-
access and left/right key. A single device usually defines the control buttons
for a single ‘real live’ device, but this is not required. Devices appear in the
right hand side device menu of your USR-5.
•AMacro Group is a list of panels plus an action list for every USR-5
direct-access key (in a macro group, the left/right keys cannot have an
action list). A single macro group usually defines a number of related
macros, but this is not required. Macro groups appear in the left hand side
macro group menu of your USR-5.

Why would I use ChadEdit?
One of the best features of the USR-5 is its adaptability: you can make buttons and whole panels appear and
disappear, change button labels, learn IR codes, and create and edit your own macros. But if you want to
personalize your USR-5 even more, ChadEdit is the perfect tool for you.
With ChadEdit you can make all the changes you can make on your USR-5. In addition, ChadEdit allows you
to perform a range of powerful tasks, including:
• upload and download configurations from and into your USR-5
• add buttons to panels
• rearrange panels
• add panels to devices
• add new devices
• use your own bitmaps
• create your own custom devices
• make any button into a macro
• create macros in macros
• let any button take you to any panel
• replace the home panels with your own panels
How can this guide help me use ChadEdit?
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for a range of common ChadEdit tasks and is only intended to get
you started with ChadEdit. This guide is not meant to be a ChadEdit reference guide and we encourage you to
investigate the range of features offered by ChadEdit which are not covered by this guide.
A note on menus
