3.5.1 Dashboard Module

The Dashboard module is a customizable Graphical User Interface (GUI) panel. It can be used to control and display parameters from the application firmware. Elements (button, label, slider, etc.) are placed in the dashboard area to form the GUI. Each element can have an endpoint associated with it to send or receive values. A slider, for example, has a source that outputs the slider position as a numeric value. Endpoints are shown when the Show Endpoints option is selected.

For an example on how to configure a dashboard, see Dashboard Configuration Example.
