Fig. 1 Gauge Panel for 24 Input Channels – First Row (Channels 1 through 8) is selected for gauge display
In Fig. 1 we see that Accel Ch 1 through Accel Ch 8 are being displayed. Channels 5, 6, and 7 would also be displayed, but
have been removed from the figure for clarity. In addition, the vertical gauges have been greatly compressed.
Below the gauges we see 3 rows of data cells. The top row provides data for Channels 1 through 8, the second row displays
data for channels 9 through 16, and the third row displays data for channels 17 through 24. Up to 7 rows (channels 1 through
56) can be displayed.
We know that gauges are being displayed for channels 1 through 8. But suppose we wanted to see the gauge for channel 11?
A single click on the associated cell [in the second row] accomplishes this task. Simply single-click on the third cell in the
second row to display the gauge for Accel Ch 11. In the following figure we see that channel 11’s gauge replaced the
channel 3’s. This is because each of the 8 columns can display a gauge for only one channel at a time. Thus, column 3 is
home to channels 3, 11, and 19. The third gauge from the left can only display one of those channels at a time.
Fig. 2 - Displaying Accel Ch 11 in place of Accel Ch 3
Note “A” - Single click on a cell to display the gauge for that cell.
If we wanted to change our display to show an entire different set of gauges we could single click on individual cells; or we
could double-click on any cell in a row to display guages for all the channels in that row (see Fig. 3).
Fig. 3 - Selecting a New Set of Eight Gauges
Note B - Double-click on any cell in a row to display gauges for all channels in that row.
Notice the second row of data cells in Fig. 3. Double-clicking on any cell in that row causes all 8 channels in that row to
have a gauge display. The gauge for Accel Ch 1 has been replaced with a guage for Accel Ch 9, the gauge for Accel Ch 2
has been replaced with a gauge for Accel Ch 10, etc. If we double-clicked on a cell in the third row we would see gauges
displayed for channels 17 through 24.
