Using Panel Builder

Click the Panel Builder link (located as shown in the wall controller screen shot
on the previous page) to create multi-page custom graphics for your wall
controller display. Pages are stored internally and then launched at start-up or at
the push of a button. The screen below allows you to choose between using the
N-Touch Wizard or the Full Panel Editor (which gives you more customization
options).

Choosing a Panel Builder Mode

Consider the following when choosing between N-Touch Wizard and Full Panel
Editor
mode:

N-Touch Wizard mode allows full control as well as custom buttons and pan-

els.

Full Panel Editor mode allows multi-state buttons, conditional logic, and feed-

back programming not available in the N-Touch Wizard.

• Panels created using the wizard can be imported into the full editor if those

features are needed at a later date.

Note: Full Panel Editor panels cannot be imported into the N-Touch Wizard, but

they are compatible with SVSi's Panel Builder software on the N8000-series con-

trollers.

Panel Builder Wizard Overview

Use the Wizard to customize what is displayed on the N-Touch Wall Controller’s
screen. When you first open the Wizard, an image of your wall controller displays.
Here you can
add functions
that will then
execute when
a button is
pressed on
the wall
controller.
Before
building your
panel, click
Help >
Wizard Help

(as shown in
screen shot at
right) to
access a short
tutorial which
demonstrates proper configuration.

Note: If using the Full Panel Editor, click Help > Editor to open a tutorial for its

interface.
