• For meter, the name specifier is used to generate the text for the monitor.
• The text fields of the monitors may include
%f format numeric displays (to convey numerical as well as graphical
information)
.
All three graphical monitors will indicate when the control input’s
value falls above or below the range set by the minimum and
maximum specifiers. (The screen to the right was made by changing the
max
value
to
11
on the “
knob for mons
” module in the
Interface Modules
program.)
The vmonitor module creates a graphic that is one sixth of a screen width and four lines high. The
hmonitor module creates a graphic that is one half of a screen width and one line high. The meter
module creates a graphic that is one quarter of a screen width and four lines high.

Textual Control Signal Monitors
The monitor and tmonitor modules use text to display their
control input values.
The monitor module is a mirror image of the knob module; it
displays the decimal value of its control input. The format for the
display is set using the text and
%f format described earlier.
The tmonitor module is a mirror image of the textknob
module. It uses the control input to determine which of several
text strings will be shown. A control input value of 0 chooses
text1, a value of 3 chooses text4 and so on.
Both the textual monitor modules create displays that are half of a
screen width and one line long.
