I have my Vista-20p set up with X10 output and I can turn lights on/off from the 6270 keypad without a problem.

On the Lights option on the keypad, I'm trying to change the option to display "Bedroom lights" instead of "Output -1", "Hallway light" instead of "Output -2" etc. The 6270 manual shows in it's pictures of this option that this is possible but I can't find good documentation on how to do it.

I go into *82 programming but from there, I get stuck when it prompts me for the zone.

I think I found how to do this spelled out step by step several months ago on this website but can't seem to find it now.

Any detailed help is greatly appreciated on how to do this.

On a Vista 20p, I don't think you have the option to re-label the output names. That's an option that's available on panels like the Vista 128 or the Vista-250 (which is why it's in the manual as an example).
