The example is ready to use in the set InteliGen BaseBox controller and InteliVision 5.
If a user wants to create a new screen, not only to modify existing ones, he can add new screens by
following way:
Now the new Metering screen is being added at the end of all screens (see the picture below).
A user can set in “Screen properties” section:
Own name of screen
if the screen is “Default”
if the screen is “Home screen”
Now there can be inserted required instruments from the “instrument pallet MENU”.
The order of screens is possible to change. Just drug the screen required to be moved and drop it in
the required place.
