Default Front Panel Page
Creating a Page with Front Panel Editor
NOTE: The creation of a front panel page is discussed in this section. For more
details, consult the SIMPL Windows help file. Specifically, search on Front Panel
Editor.
Assume that a page, as shown below, is required. The concept of such an application
is that the user can then choose a given device and then, from a lower-level page,
control one or more transport functions of the device.
Example of a Front Panel Page
Adding Top-Level Pages and Objects
Use SIMPL Windows and access the Front Panel Editor by selecting Project | Edit
Front Panel. Click on the Add button and enter a new name for the new page. For
this sample, use “Menu1 – Choose Device” as the name.
Double-click inside the display area of the front panel on the screen to open the “Edit
Panel Object” dialog box. This sample requires that headings be added to the page,
so choose Text Object from the Object Type area. In the Inactive Text field, enter
“Choose Device”. The object is displayed on the panel. Click on and drag the object
to its desired location on the panel, top row.
Add additional objects (VCR, LaserDisc, CD, Lights, and Volume) to the page by
double-clicking in the display area where the object is to appear. Repeat the
procedure in the previous paragraph; place objects over the appropriate button.
Adding Lower-Level Pages and Objects
Lower-level pages can be added for each of the objects on the bottom row of the
page just created. For the purposes of this sample, one lower-level page is added for
the VCR object. Simply click on the Add button and enter a new name for the new
page. For this sample, use “Menu2 – VCR Control” as the name.
Return to the “Menu1 – Choose Device” and double-click on the VCR object. The
“Edit Panel Object” dialog box appears. From the Menu Jump field, select “Menu2 –
VCR Control” and click OK. Select the Simulate check box to make the Front Panel
