Setting Up Screens

8.1 Designing a Screen Hierarchy
A large space, such as a nightclub, may be divided into several areas that require separate
lighting control. One way to make control easier is by using a separate Screen for each area,
with each Screen allowing selection of scenes for that area only. In this way, you can use a single
TouchPanel to control the lighting of the whole nightclub.
The example below shows a simple collection of Screens for a nightclub:
A Screen is a collection of buttons, shapes, clock,
captions and background picture or colour, customized
to suit your needs. Screen customization allows you
add new buttons, arrange them however you wish,
assign actions to them, and even use Themes to
change the way they look.
In typical use, TouchPanel can store around 500
Screens. When TouchPanel is switched on and
configured, it always displays the Default Screen
(section 3.1). It makes sense therefore, for this Screen
to include the most commonly-used options.
