The KineticaRT Knob is fast, easy to configure and supports live update. You can embed it straight into your application and its flexible look-and-feel makes it ideal for virtual control panels.

Manual input capability (mouse dragging)
Destination property allows connection to channel component
Source property allows feedback channel to automatically update display
Circular Scale can show text, roman numerals, compass points etc. and display threshold marks

 OVERVIEW

The KineticaRT Knob is a real-time multi-threaded control that can be embedded straight into your application or onto a KineticaRT Frame component to allow run-time configuration.

As with other KineticaRT controls width and height are configurable, as well as the colors of the separate parts of the knob.

This multi-purpose control has three different background shape and style options and can also be configured as constant value or auto-return.

If configured to read a source channel, the knob will rotate to show the value against the scale. If a destination channel is selected, that channel will be updated with the value of the knob.

 APPLICATION STORY



This picture shows part of a virtual control panel using knobs and other KineticaRT components to control a Pickering 10-921-001 Switch Module.

The customer uses this control panel as part of an Automated Test Equipment rig for testing aeronautical guidance systems.

The knobs are used with thresholds, linking to other logic components, to form a value selector switch to initiate separate control sequences which open or close selected relays or relay banks. These particular relays link to a HP 34401 Digital Multimeter to perform various 4-wire resistance measurement. (This Multimeter is itself controlled from another virtual control panel using similar knobs to select its input requirements and data logging.)

These knobs can be used manually, but during the main test sequence they are controlled by their Source property being set from the sequence, and their Destination property being used to form the selection.
