CRIMSON USER MANUAL - MODULAR CONTROLLER
• The Button Font property is used to select the required font for the navigation
buttons of the primitive.
• The Root Directory defines the root folder on the CompactFlash card where files
to be open reside. The viewer can only open files present under the indicated
folder and cannot navigate to other folders.
The picture below shows functionalities available on the file viewer once downloaded in an
operator interface. Here, the viewer is displaying the content of a CSV file available from the
CompactFlash Card. The file is accessed when the page with the primitive is displayed. The
Rescan button provides a way to reload the file content so the user has access to the latest
data. The Prev and Next button are used to navigate from one file to another. They are
available only if more than one file is present in the folder.

THE REMOTE DISPLAY PRIMITIVE
The Remote Display Primitive is used to send part of the operator interface
display to an external large display such as the BFD (Big Flexible display) or
LFD (Large Flexible display).
This primitive sends the graphical information within its area to the slave large display. It is
used in combination with the Red Lion Big Flexible Display serial port driver. This driver is
selected in Communication.
Each pixel on the graphic area represents an LED on the remote display matrix. Remote
displays being monochrome, in the case of a color unit controlling the display, any colors will
be a lit LED, only black will be an off LED.
