Initial notes on our mini multifunction display touch screen operation

This device also has it's own wifi network web app. The web app is used mostly for other backend functions like data conversion and routing. Here we will refer only to touch screen operations. A conscious minimalistic design was selected to take advantage of the small form factor while providing excellent readability and user experience.

Screens/widgets are accessed in different ways:

  1. Boot screen configuration. You can select which widget to start at in the config screen. List is next to [Save] button.
  2. Swipe left twice for next screen. Swipe right twice for previous screen.
  3. Config screen from widget and back.
  4. Automatic mode. You can select which widgets are automatically changed by selecting them from the lower list of config screen.

Touch wait and release functions. These functions change based on 5 screen areas: Left top, right top, middle center, left bottom and right bottom:

  1. Left top enables/disables night mode.
  2. Right top changes some widgets bar graph time resolution. New resolution appears bottom left.
  3. Right bottom switches to and from configuration screen and starting widget.
  4. Left bottom switch to and from automatic mode [A] appears top left.
  5. Center middle reduces brightness and then increases brightness.
