11.3.2.2
Different applications for the critical band function
Critical bands may also be assigned to control the colour of the pointer of an analogue indicator type, the colour
of a bar graph or the colour of a digital readout, but this type of functionality has to be included in the virtual
indicator design that is stored in the XDi library and you are not able to change the predefined colours from for
the different element from the installation menu.
When a DX1 digital i/o module is mounted on the XDi, the critical bands can also be used to control one or both
relay outputs on that module, but only if support for DX1 relay output is included in the selected VS profile.
This is for example used to activate the wind speed alarms in some of the wind indicators available in the DEIF
standard wind indicator library.
11.3.3
Indicators
The indicator menu makes it possible to change the visibility of each indicator element included in the virtual
indicator.
The example VI has 6 indicator elements as shown on the menu. To make a change to the azimuth set point
pointer (AZISET), highlight it and press OK.
Press OK to open AZISET for editing.
The indicator is set up to be visible (ON).
Press the OK button to open the visibility settings.
