Figure 5-1: PLUS Interface Layers – Visualizer
In this section, you will become familiar with the Visualizer menus and forms. You will be introduced
to its functional capabilities, and learn what is required to setup and configure the software.
The Control Window
The Visualizer uses a single control window from which you can configure different ―views‖ into the
tracking system. See Figure 5-2: Visualizer Control Window below. In this section, you will learn
about each of these views – what you can gain from each view, and how each view can be customized
to meet your specific needs.
2D Map View
Using the 2D Map View, you can graphically see the location of the PLUS Tags being tracked. You can
customize the view to display / hide system components including Readers, Calibration Tags, and
background image floor plans. You can also customize the ―look‖ of the display including the display
icon and size for the Readers and Tags, and parameters for the grid and floor plan/background image
display.
