The Configuration Software
Designing a graphical user interface (GUI) for the TouchLink panel takes two steps:
1.
Design the layout of the text and graphics
.
2.
Assign functions to the text and graphics
The GUI Configurator software is a Windows-based application. The TLP interface
is designed either by customizing an existing template or by creating an entirely new
interface. GUI Configurator offers several templates.
After the GUI has been designed on a PC, the project is saved, built, and uploaded to
the TouchLink panel to verify what it looks like on the screen. It is then imported from
the TLP unit to Global Configurator where control functions are assigned to the text and
graphic items in the layout. After assigning the control functions, the project is rebuilt and
uploaded to the controller.
The GUI Configurator and Global Configurator programs provide versatility and
adaptability for configuration and control of an AV system as it grows and evolves.
