DashBoa

rd™ User Interface

(See Figure 3-5.) The UPC-166 function submenus are organized in
DashBoard™ using tabs (for example, “Embedded Audio Group 1/2” in
Figure 3-5). When a tab is selected, each parametric control or selection list
item associated with the function is displayed. Scalar (numeric) parametric
values can then be adjusted as desired using the GUI slider controls. Items in
a list can then be selected using GUI drop-down lists. (In this manner, the
setting effected using controls and selection lists displayed in DashBoard™
are comparable to the submenu items accessed and committed using the
UPC-166 card edge controls.)

Figure 3-5 shows the same setup described in Figure 3-3 as performed using
DashBoard™. Note how this setup is greatly simplified using DashBoard™
with most of the discrete tasks (

in Figure 3-3) performed

with the card edge controls now rolled into simple actions using
DashBoard™.
