5.13.1. Analog Controls
5.13.2. Text Controls
These controls are configured with the name of a Data Array in the LANServer and an
offset into that array. If the value found at that location is zero then one text string, the
so called ‘off’ text is displayed. If the value is non-zero then the so called ‘on’ text is
displayed. The web project designer can also specify the following properties
• Size: Limit the width of the control to a specific pixel count or allow the control to
use as much space as is required to display the text. If a fixed pixel width has
been specified then it’s possible that the displayed text will be truncated.
• Colors: A different color for the ‘on’ and ‘off’ states can be configured.
• Font family and font size.
• Background color.
• ‘On’ and ‘Off’ Text.
As the value in the Data Array
changes the displayed value
changes
The web page designer configured this control to use a
fixed number of pixels to display the analog value. (They
could have let the display auto-size). When the value gets
big enough, there are not enough pixels to display the
correct number.
In this example, the value-12345 but only 20 pixels were
allowed as the display width so the displayed number is
truncated.
The web page designer chose to have this analog value
displayed in blue. If no color legend is supplied there is
no significance to the color.
The text displayed and color can
change as the value found in the data
Array changes.
