Creating a Bargraph and Joystick
Bargraphs are level monitors and adjustable level controls. These levels can be configured to
monitor and adjust audio outputs and lighting levels.
Joysticks are vertical and horizontal direction controllers you can use for camera for pan and tilt
control. Before starting, make sure to connect the touch panel to your Controller; otherwise, the
joystick will not work properly.
You cannot create or edit buttons with Unicode fonts on the panel. Any use of the
TEXT/IMAGE button to alter or create Unicode font supported buttons must be done
in the TPDesign3 Touch Panel Design Program.
