Actions Page

The Actions page, accessible via the lightning icon on the main toolbar, allows users to configure and manage automated action sequences and multi-command macros.

While individual widgets can execute standalone CMDNET commands directly, the Actions page enables users to package complex or multi-step command sequences into single reusable triggers.

Targets

Layout Overview

The Actions interface is split into two primary functional areas:

Area Description
Actions List (Left pane) Displays all currently defined actions and action management controls.
Action Configuration (Right pane) Context-sensitive parameter editor for the currently selected action.

Actions List Controls

The left panel includes a dedicated toolbar for managing action entries:

  • Add (+): Creates a new action entry in the list.
  • Remove (-): Deletes the currently selected action.
  • Delete All (Trash icon): Removes all configured actions from the project.

Action Properties

When an action is selected from the list, the right pane displays its configurable properties:

  • Action Name: A unique identifier for the action, used to reference it within the touch panel builder.
  • Target: The receiver software instance configured on the Target Page (e.g., MY_IDP for Immersive Display PRO).
  • Command: The CMDNET interface command to trigger on the selected target (e.g., SETDESKTOPWARPING, LOADPROCALIB, SETCONFIGSET).
  • Parameters: The specific arguments expected by the command (such as ENABLE, DISABLE, or configuration preset IDs).
  • Sequence / Execution Delay: An optional delay (in milliseconds) before or between executing subsequent commands when building compound control routines.

Using Actions in Panel Builder

Once an action is defined on this page:

  1. Open the Builder interface from the web browser.
  2. Select or add a Button widget on the canvas.
  3. In the widget's Command property panel, set the target or action trigger to the defined action name.
  4. Save the panel. Pressing the button in the Viewer will execute the full command sequence.
