You might never use a default button, like keypad or share. Having unused buttons in the user interface of a device can cause confusion. In these cases, you can remove the unused buttons.
If you don't need all the default buttons, there is a set of configurations that you can use to remove them. Custom In-Room Control panels can still be exposed. Removing default buttons and adding custom buttons makes it possible to fully customize the user interface.
For example, remove the Call and Share buttons if nobody is going to share content or call from this device. Then, add custom buttons (In-Room Controls) for the tasks that users are going to perform.
Configurations
Use the following configurations to remove default buttons from the user interface. The configurations are available from the web interface of the device and in the API. Read the Advanced Settings article for information about how to access the web interface and use the API. The web interface is also referred to as the device's Advanced Settings .
