Instrumentation / FrontPage (Microsoft Office FrontPage - Tools & Add-ins)

Provide visual gauges for technical applications. Instrumentation ActiveX Library is a suite of 11 common instrumentation interface controls including Angular Gauge, Knob, LED, Linear Gauge, Numeric LED, Odometer, Percent, Selector Knob, Slider, Strip Chart, and Toggle. Each component gives you full control over instrument properties including scales, captions, tics, etc.

Perform dynamic, two-dimensional charting. Strip Chart is an ActiveX component that provides an interface for one or more streams of realtime data or as a static two-dimensional charting tool. Use it to replace or enhance the plotting utility that comes with Excel. Other possible uses include: Factory Trending or Feedback, Vertical Plotting or Drilling Operations, Static Plotting, Virtual Oscilloscope, and more.

Monitor realtime data in a flexible gauge. Angular Gauge is an ActiveX component that enables you to display data in a graphical gauge. It includes a full library of pre-configured gauge styles to choose from and you can further customize its appearance via its extensive set of properties. Useful for: Factory Instruments/Gauges, Amperage Meter, Analog Clock, Compass, VU Meter Automobile Instruments, or any application involving display of realtime data.

Incorporate LED-like lights and indicators in your application. Global Majic LED simulates the functionality of a Light-Emitting Diode (LED). You have complete control via property pages, of the LED's size, shape, colors, and bitmaps - even at runtime. Horizontal or vertical arrays of LEDs may be used to display meter levels, DIP switch settings, or to create warning lights in monitoring applications. A built-in timer allows you to control the decay rate.

Create games, simulations, and/or cockpit emulations. Aircraft ActiveX Library is a bundle of four aircraft-specific custom controls including Aircraft Dynamics, Aircraft Instruments, Joystick, and Moving Map ActiveX controls. Packaged together, these components provide developers with a powerful set of tools for creating realistic cockpit and aircraft applications. Useful for private aircraft simulations, vehicle tracking, and many other uses.

Provide interactive performance and handling qualities for a variety of aircraft in your flight simulation application. Aircraft Dynamics includes user customizable properties such as aircraft dimensions, aerodynamic coefficients, stability and control coefficients, weights and inertia, and propulsion. Forces are modeled through a series of aerodynamic lookup tables. Includes built-in aero tables for the Cessna 182, F-18, and Boeing 747.

Build detailed instrumentation displays for your aircraft simulation application. Aircraft Instruments displays 12 small aircraft flight instruments including air speed, altimeter, artificial horizon, automatic direction finder, climb rate indicator, compass, course indicator, heading indicator, horizontal situation indicator, omni-bearing indicator, radio magnetic indicator, and turn coordinator. It utilizes dynamic property pages and is self-registering.

Create realistic alphanumeric LED-style displays. Alphanumeric LED is an ActiveX component that uses the 7-segment LED standard. It is capable of displaying alphabetic characters A through F, any numeric character, a moveable decimal point, and an optional sign value (+ or -). It is data-aware for displaying alphanumeric data from a database. Useful for Calculator displays, digital clocks, countdown timer, Time/Temperature display, and more.

Control data input with a configurable knob. Global Majic Knob is an ActiveX component that creates a graphical knob that you can use for interactive data input, process control, realtime adjustments, and the like. It can be controlled via property pages, even at runtime, and all changes are dynamic. Possible uses include: VCR Jogging Component, Tuning Knob, Audio or Video Mixer, Volume Knob, Input Control Knob, Aircraft or Automobile Dial, etc.

Add a progress slider to your applications. Global Majic Slider can be configured as a standard slider - to display file transfer progress, drive space remaining, etc. - or used as a gauge or meter, thermometer, dynamic bar chart, or even to display a pipe, tank, or vessel filling or emptying. You have full control over properties including scale, handle, fonts, captions, annulars, and tics. It is even data-aware for monitoring database activity.
