Real-Time Graphics ActiveX Control

This package is bundled as a group of separate real-time controls. These controls provide the most flexible set of real-time display functions available. Each control has a unique data display and property page interface. Place an instance of a scrolling graph, bar graph, meter directly into your application, or use our PID control to add PID algorithm capability to your program.
All of the properties of a real-time control can be edited via methods or by property pages. This includes axes scaling, precision and labeling, graph position and size, colors, line styles and font attributes.

bulletScrolling line graphs, sweep graphs, scrolling bar graphs, scrolling logic graphs.
bulletReal-time XY plots.
bulletMultiple X and Y axes, multiple scalings.
bulletDynamic bar graphs.
bulletNeedle, arc and pie meters.
bulletAnnunciators.
bulletDynamic numeric updates.
bulletPID control.
bulletBuilt-in grid data editor.
bulletLegends.
bulletFFTs.
bulletIntegrated printing support.
bulletImport, export data from clipboard, program and data files.

This is a Windows legacy product and has not been updated since 2000. It is sold as-is. There is no longer technical support for it.

Available Controls:

Scrolling Graph
Scrolling and sweep graphs display analog data in the same fashion as an oscilloscope or strip chart recorder. The scrolling control includes line, bar, sweep, XY and stacked line graphs. The orientation of the graph can be either horizontal or vertical. A single scrolling graph can display up to 32 channels of data.

Dynamic Bar Graph
Dynamic bar graphs are modeled on process control style face plates. In addition to dynamic bars, alarm limits are displayed, along with current values and alarm status. Up to 8 channels of data can be displayed in a single bar graph. Dynamic bar graphs can be horizontal or vertical.

Meter
Meters display analog data in an analog format. Three meter types are supported: arc, pie and needle meters. The meter arc starting and ending locations, radius, range, colors and alarm limits are all programmable, allowing you to simulate a wide variety of meter and gauge types.
PID
This control includes the Quinn-Curtis PID algorithm with anti-reset windup, output limit and rate clamping features. The control also includes an optional PID bar graph.

Annunciator
Annunciators panels are used to display the current values and alarm states of real-time data in text form. An annunciator can display from 1 to 32 channels of data.

Buttons
Single (on/off, momentary) and group buttons (radio button logic).

Integrated Printer Support
Output to any Windows supported printer at the resolution of the device.

Serialization
Serialization is designed into every object in the control. Any chart can be serialized regardless of its complexity. A single call to the control will save or restore all of the defining attributes for all of the charts and legends.

Other Features
• On-line Help.
• Save graph image as a DIB or copy to clipboard.
• Refresh data without redrawing entire graph.
• Legends.
