Multi Button

Multiple parameters can be assigned to this single read/write control button by dragging them on to it. When the indicator is not shown the button will send all on or all off to the assigned buttons depending upon the setting of the trigger value.

An indicator can be set to be on when any one of the buttons is on (or off), or when all of the buttons are on (or off). Alternatively, the indicator can also be set to be on when a set of logic conditions has been met . Settings in the properties will determine how this button can operate.

The appearance of the button can be customised by dragging and dropping from the gallery pane.

General Properties

Orientation

Sets the orientation of the text within the button.

Show Indicator

Sets the button indicator on or off.

Indicator Colour

Sets the indicator colour should it be shown.

Indicator On Using

The conditions under which the indicator will be displayed, i.e. when one button is on, when all buttons are on or when the parameters assigned to this control are in the state set by the logic string. This option will be greyed out if Show Indicator is set to No.

Trigger Value

The value to set when the button is pressed.

Logic String

Sets a defined logic string to be sent to control the assigned parameters when the button is pressed. Also the indicator will come on when the parameters assigned to this control are in the state set by the logic string. The logic string is delimited by commas. It is set in the format: parameter1 off, parameter1 on, parameter2 off, parameter2 on and so on. So a string of 0,1,0,1 will set parameters 1 and 2 to the on state. This option is only available with Indicator On Using set to Logic.
