Text Formatting Codes for Bargraphs/Joysticks
Text formatting codes for bargraphs provide a mechanism to allow a portion of a bargraphs text to
be dynamically provided information about the current status of the level (multistate and
traditional). These codes would be entered into the text field along with any other text.
The following is a code list used for bargraphs:
Buy changing the text on a button (via a VT command) you can modify the codes on a button.
When one of the Text Formatting Codes is encountered by the firmware it is replaced with the
correct value. These values are derived from the following operations:
Given a current raw level value of 532, a range low value of 500 and a high range value of 600 the
following text formatting codes would yield the following strings as shown in the table below:
