Hi Everyone,
Here's an app I've been working on for the past year. It allows you to layout a touch panel for your desktop, then "connect" buttons to a command file that controls devices over a local network. The "Panel Designer" allows you to do the layout, the "Command Editor" does device/command definitions, and the "Desktop Panel" pulls these two files together to provide a UI that sends command strings from your desktop. All three programs are included in the download.
This version is limited to 5 pages, 5 buttons per page, 5 devices, and 5 command strings per device, although unlimited files with these restrictions can be created.
Each device can have its own IP and port number.
Command strings can be sent as ASCII, Hex, or a combination of the two.
Button states in this version are momentary only with no feedback.
This might be a useful testing tool for both hobbyists and integrators (hopefully?).
To download:
1. Go to the website (URL is below).
2. Click "Downloads" in the toolbar.
3. Click "BiziSuite" from the choice of folders.
4. Click "BiziSuite Free" or "BiziSuite Free - 64 Bit" depending on your OS.
5. Click "Download File".
Just one request - To keep this thread on-topic, program-specific support requests should be handled through my site (preferably in the forum) rather than here.
Thanks and Enjoy,
Chris
