question for m-audio triggerfinger users

How does the mute option work (with live)? The manual isn't very clear about this function.

Can someone explain this a little, thanks :)

it's pretty simple, actually. If your pads transmit cc's when you press on them, AND midi notes, then assigning functions in live can be difficult - what midi value should be assigned to which function? Pressing the mute button lets you mute for instance the controllers in order to assign a note to a parameter in Live, without the controllers constantly overwriting the notes in the midi assign.
