HOME SCREEN & USER INTERFACE
Navigation is accomplished using a multi-function rotary encoder, hereafter referred to as “The Control” because
saying “multi-function rotary encoder” more than once a) Sounds really stuffy and elitist, and b) Will annoy us
both.
Generally speaking:
♦
Moving the control to the left takes back through the menu hierarchy and eventually lead back to the
Home screen.
♦
Moving it to the right takes you to the next branch of the current menu or will enable/disable the
highlighted control.
♦
Moving it up or down scrolls vertically through all available options in the current menu. If you see a
scroll bar on the right side of the menu, this indicates there are additional items out of view which can be
seen by continuing to scroll up or down.
♦
Turning the control clockwise or counterclockwise typically scrolls through available choices in cyclical
“list” type controls and makes adjustments when a specific control is highlighted as indicated by a yellow
outline.
Menu Hierarchy
The basic Omnia.7 menu hierarchy is organized as a series of menus and sub-menus with each sub-menu getting
more and more specific in nature and finally ending in individual controls.
Navigation paths will be expressed as Menu > Sub Menu > Submenu > Control with color images showing what the
controls look like in the NfRemote application.
