Set to non-zero to display up
to 32 LEDs. See
daughter_leds in Table 7-6
on page 7-10.
Set this parameter to display
up to 32 switches. See
daughter_user_switches in
Table 7-6 on page 7-10.

a. See the header file, %PVLIB_HOME%\components\KeyCode.h, for a list of ATKeyCode values. On Linux, use
$PVLIB_HOME/components/KeyCode.h.
b. This is equivalent to the left Alt key, so pressing Left Alt and Left Ctrl simultaneously toggles the mouse display.
Note
Setting the rate_limit-enable parameter to true (the default) prevents the simulation from
running too fast on fast workstations and enables timing loops and mouse actions to work
correctly. The overall simulation speed, however, is reduced.
If your priority is high simulation speed, set rate_limit-enable to false.
7.4.4 Registers
The EBVisualisation component has no registers.
7.4.5 Debug Features
The EBVisualisation component has no debug features.
7.4.6 Verification and testing
The EBVisualisation component has been tested by use as an I/O device for booting Linux and
other operating systems.
7.4.7 Performance
Use of elements in the status bar are not expected to significantly affect the performance of a
PV system. However, applications that make heavy use of re-drawing the contents of the frame
buffer incur overhead through GUI interactions on the host OS.
7.4.8 Library dependencies
The MPSVisualisation component relies on the Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) libraries,
specifically libSDL-1.2.so.0.11.2. This library is bundled with the Model Library and is also
available as a rpm for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. See http://www.libsdl.org/ for more
information on SDL.
