In demo1, note that the
“Main Menu”
(a.k.a.
Exit
)
buttons on the Load and Save pages are
simple page flips; they do not disable the signal block. This is a viable alternative. However, note
that the seat request buttons will remain active even though the touchpanel is no longer displaying
the Console Page.
1
Enable
Re-establishes the last known states of all queues, seat button feedbacks, and mic
selection. Queues and seat request buttons are now active.
Because the queues are database table-bound scrollers, the actual state of the queues
is always instantly preserved in the tables. When the signal block is re-enabled, the
tables are re-opened, and the queues reappear intact. Also at this time, the seat button
feedbacks and the mic selection setting is re-sent to the control system.
2
Start new queue set
Operator would normally get a button tied directly to the
ClearQueueSet.
This
operation may be initiated at any time. It is usually presented to the operator in two
places:
•
As an option on the Load Page, on his way in to the Console Page; and
•
As an option on the Console Page itself.
3
Reload old queue set
Operator can (optionally) choose to reload a “snapshot” of the queue set from any of
a set of
f
“save files” (the value of
f
being determined by the signal block’s
configuration). The save files are identified by their timestamps which are displayed
in the
Load
buttons’ indirect text fields. The
Load
buttons pulse the
Load
signals. If
a button says “[EMPTY],” then there is no data in (any of the tables comprising) the
“save file” and pulsing the signal raises
Err_NO_SUCH_RECORD
.
N
OTE
:
Since no “successful load trigger” signal is provided, an “[EMPTY]”
Load
button will
typically flip to the Console Page anyway. In such a case, the current queue set will remain loaded
but the “No such record(s)” error message will appear on the screen.
