# Delay Dump ($%!) Button

## Scope

This article covers the use of the **DELAY ($%!)** dump button on the VSet phones and controllers and how to set it up.

## Description

The VSet phone sets and controllers (even the Legacy Desktop Director and Switch Console) have a button called **DELAY (#%!).** In all cases, this button controls a GPIO output on it's corresponding phone system. This article will tell you how to set it up.

## VSet with VX System

> [!CAUTION]
> **NOTICE:** The VX Show must be logged out of the VX Studio in order to change the GPIO configuration of the VX Studio.

1. Go to the VX Studio configuration page and find the **GPIO Indication** section.
2. Select **Delay Dump** under Indication
3. Set **Channel** to the desired Livewire channel
4. Set **Pin** to the desired output pin
5. Set **Type** to **To GPIO**
6. Click **Apply**

## Hx6 / iQ6

The VSet's Dump button is hard-configured to momentarily activate pin 1 of the first GPIO port.

## Legacy Systems

The **Desktop Director** and **Switch Console** Delay Dump buttons work similarly to the Hx6, where the delay dump button activates a GPIO output pin. Please reference the operation manual for the product you have.
