Advanced Objects
Several objects are available in the MAPware-7000 software that have advanced features such
as executing multiple tasks (Multi-Task buttons), downloading/uploading recipes, and
representing data using easy-to-read graphs or meters.
Multi-Task Single-State Button
The Multi-Task Single-State button performs a set of predefined tasks whenever the button is
pressed. The button displays with text labels or a graphic image that represents two states.
When a Multi-Task Single-State button is on screen, the HMC7000 continuously polls the target
bit register to determine which state to display (feedback tag must be enabled to display two
states).
