Programming
12
SP+ Softwire Panels
For example:
DEFINE_DEVICE
VOL = 12 (* VOLUME CONTROL CARD DEVICE 12 *)
MSP = 128 (* MINI SOFTWIRE PANEL DEVICE 128 *)
DEFINE_VARIABLE
MIC_LEVEL (* VARIABLE TO HOLD CURRENT MIC *)
(* VOLUME LEVEL *)
DEFINE_START
CREATE_LEVEL VOL,2,MIC_LEVEL (* MIC_LEVEL HAS THE CURRENT LEVEL *)
(* OF CHANNEL 2 OF THE VOLUME CARD *)
DEFINE_PROGRAM
SEND_LEVEL MSP,1,MIC_LEVEL (* MIC VOLUME DISPLAYS ON FIRST BAR *)
(* GRAPH. THIS STATEMENT CAN BE *)
(* ANYWHERE IN THE PROGRAM. *)
To program a bargraph(s) for discrete mode, use the same on/off pattern described in Setting the
AXlink Device Number. The LED's light pattern will equal the value of DIP switches set to ON.
SEND_LEVEL SP, 1, 128 (Light LED 8 [128].)
SEND_LEVEL SP, 1, 129 (Lights LEDs 1 and 8 [1+128].)
SEND_LEVEL SP, 1, 237 (Lights LEDs 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, and 8
[1+4+8+32+64+128].)
Bargraph programming options
You can program panels using three bargraph modes: bar mode, dot mode, and discrete mode. Bar
mode (system default) will activate LEDs in a bottom-to-top sequence. Dot mode will only activate
the peak LED of the display level. Discrete mode can be set to activate any combination of LEDs.
FIG. 11 shows a sample bargraph mode.
