Dynamic Sub Elements
The following Dynamic Sub Elements are available:
Floor Designation
Elevator floor designation characters. The designation will update
automatically from the 2-Wire elevator data input and scroll and/or fade
accordingly.
Arrow
Direction arrow for either the current elevator travelling direction, or the
intended next direction.
The arrow will update automatically from the 2-Wire elevator data input.
The arrow can be configured to show either the up or down direction, or
only up or only down direction.
Dynamic Text
Dynamically drawn text, which can have either a static embedded value
(useful for text appearing over the top of other dynamic sub elements), or
have a remotely configured value, or a conditionally changing value.
Dynamic Image
Dynamically drawn image(s). If more than one image is configured in this
element, they can be displayed as either an automatically advancing timed
slideshow, or as a conditionally selected image. This element supports most
common formats (BMP, JPEG, GIF and PNG), and the alpha channel of a
32bit PNG is supported.
Dynamic Pictogram
Dynamically drawn pictogram(s). The pictograms are selected from a library
of vectorised images that can be resized and recoloured from the Designer
software.
Dynamic Time / Date Text
Digital clock text. The format can be selected, and the text automatically
updates from the on board real time clock on the DragonFly.
Analog Clock
Analog clock. The clock face and hands can be configured, and the clock
automatically updates from the on board real time clock on the DragonFly.
Dynamic Rectangle
Simple solid colour rectangle drawn dynamically by the DragonFly. This can
be used where a rectangle or line needs to be drawn over the top of another
dynamic sub element.
Weather Temperature
Dynamically drawn text based temperature. The temperature can either be
pushed to the feed over a LAN from a server, or pulled directly from a LAN
based temperature sensor or internet based RSS feed. Either a single
temperature or a combination of current, maximum and minimum
temperature can be displayed.
Weather Symbol
Dynamically drawn weather symbol. The library of vectorised symbols exists
in the Designer, and can be resized and recoloured. The symbol index can
either be pushed to the feed over a LAN from a server, or pulled directly
from an internet based RSS feed.
Transport for London (TfL) Feed
Dynamically updated TfL line status. The lines that are displayed can be
selected, and an optional second frame showing status details may be
displayed. The data can either be pushed to the feed over a LAN from a
server, or pulled directly from an internet based RSS feed.
Note: More elements will be made available, and will be fully documented in future versions of this document.
