Advanced VisTool Integration
A
VispageSwitch
element can be used to configure MF Keys, or other control signals, to action VisTool logical
functions. For example, to create page switching buttons, snapshot save/load/delete and user rights
management.
VispageSwitch
elements can be added to the "
Logic
" branch of the 'Tree Definition'. You should define an
element for each VisTool screen, and set the
Station ID
to match the
Station ID
defined in the
VisAdmin
Session Management
window. Any VisTool screen set to a matching
Station ID
will then respond to the
VispageSwitch
functions.
To enable VisTool page switching and snapshot functions you must tick the
EnablePageKey
and
EnableLoadSave
check boxes within the
VisTool Editor
"Global Settings" window.
You may also configure
page switching using the
VIS Page
buttons within “
”, and snapshot buttons using "
System -> Definition -> Parameter = Snapshot
". These
methods switch all VisTool screens regardless of their
Station ID
.
Note that the
Nova29
does not support snapshots.
Each
VispageSwitch
element supports three sets of parameters:
Logic
,
Snapshots
and
Rights
.
Logic Parameters
Vispage
Switch
Reference name for the element.
Station ID
Assigns an ID number to the element. Any VisTool screen set to a matching
Station ID
(in
the VisAdmin Session Management window) will then respond to the VispageSwitch
functions listed below.
Default Page
This page appears on the VisTool screen following a
of the sapphire, zirkon or
crystal system.
You should enter the number which corresponds to the page index within the VisTool
Editor configuration.
