The Configuration Software

Designing a graphical user interface (GUI) for the TouchLink panel takes two steps:
1.
2.
The GUI Configurator software is a Windows-based application. The interface is designed
either by customizing an existing template or by creating an entirely new interface. GUI
Configurator offers several templates that are designed to manage control system devices.
After the GUI has been designed on a PC, the project is saved, built, and uploaded to
the TouchLink panel to verify what it looks like on the screen. It is then imported from
the TLP unit to Global Configurator where control functions are assigned to the text and
graphic items in the layout. After assigning the control functions, the project is rebuilt and
uploaded to the controller.
The GUI Configurator and Global Configurator programs provide versatility and
adaptability for configuration and control of an A/V system as it grows and evolves.
