Analog Instrumentation Components
The following controls are included in our collection of 12 ActiveX and VCL components intended for the display or input of analog and
real-number based data. These 12 components are included when you purchase our Instrument Pack Standard, Instrument Pack Pro, or Instrument Ultra Pack.
Each component is designed for high-speed and robustness. All components including double, triple, or quadruple-buffering to improve
display performance with a low impact on processor usage.
Knob
The Knob control is a 3D knob which supports both mouse and keyboard control. To setup as a multi-turn Knob, set
the RotationMaxDegrees property to multiples of 360 degrees.
Slider
The Slider control is an Analog (Real Number) output control component, which supports both keyboard and mouse control. Also see the Switch Slider control.
Angular Gauge
The Angular Gauge is a graphical linear gauge with an angular representation of the data. Supports up to 5 color
sections and 4 pointer styles. Also see the Angular Log Gauge.
Odometer
The Odometer control is a basic Odometer with a rotating tenths digit. The font for the tenths can be set
independently of the other digits.
Linear Gauge
The Linear Gauge component is a graphical gauge with a linear representation of the data. Supports up to 5 color
sections and 4 pointer styles. Also see the Linear Log Gauge.
LED Bar & Spiral LED
The LED Bar component is a progress bar component with 3 different indicator styles and 4 different segment directions.
The LED Spiral component is a progress bar component with up to 3 color sections.
Thermometer
The Thermometer component is a linear gauge with a visual representation that looks like a thermometer. Includes
min & max pointers for tracking purposes.
Analog Display
The Analog Display component is a simple display typically used for displaying analog (real number) values with a
precision specified and units. To display integer values, set the precision to 0.
Analog Output
The Analog Output control is a simple control for entering analog (real number) values with a precision specified and
units. To output integer values only, set the precision to 0.
Seven Segment Analog
The Seven Segment Analog is a seven-segment display used for displaying analog (real number) values. You can
specify the total number of display digits and the number of precision digits. If the Value overflows the display in the
positive direction, then up arrows will be shown. If the Value overflows the display in the negative direction, then down arrows will be shown.
Gradient
The Gradient component is a basic gradient component with start and stop colors and 12 different fill directions as shown above.
Label
iLabelX is a windowed control that displays text on a form. This text can be used to label another control, and can be
placed on top of or below other controls (which the standard Windows label cannot do).
The iLabelX is similar to a standard Windows label, but has additional features such as BorderStyle and Shadow
properties that provide a 3D, raised, or sunken effect (ShadowColor, ShadowShow, ShadowXOffset, ShadowYOffset).
Edit Box
The iEdit control is a simple textbox with OPC client support. Completely re-implemented Edit box, not based on the
Microsoft or QT APIs. Requires hitting enter key or changing focus to another control for the Edit box's value to change. This is a useful interlock for Industrial Automation uses.
