1 Introduction When it comes to control hardware, it is necessary to provide an easy yet powerful interface for the personnel in charge. XPanel Touch is created with this purpose in mind. The menu names and control parameters are programmable via our software provided along with the device. As a matter of fact, the XPanel Touch is so flexible that it not only allows the user to define what parameters to be controlled, but the min/max of the parameters range by drag-n-drop operation in the easy-to-use PC GUI, XPanel Design. Working with the X-Series processors, it allows the processors to create a control network not only with computers, but also with the XPanels. Multiple XPanels, processors and computers can exist in the same network. It yields total control to the user with tremendous power and flexibility beyond imagination.
