Modero G4 Touch Panels - Configuration & Programming Manual
Touch Gesture Recognition
Gesturing
refers to the act of moving a finger or stylus across the overlay and having the panel recognize and process this motion
as a gesture.
Once a gesture is detected, it is processed as another external button on the panel. This enables the user to design pages that
translate gesture operations into any functionality available to external buttons. In addition, a gesture velocity is calculated and
transmitted to the master along with the gesture type itself in a custom event message. Nothing will be processed if the external
button associated with this gesture has no page flip operations programmed, is disabled, or has no values programmed for address,
channel, level, string output or command output. The custom event, however, is always transmitted.
The following seven gesture types are supported:
Swipe up
Swipe down
Swipe right
Swipe left
Clockwise circle
Counter-clockwise circle
Double-Tap

• time = transition time in tenths of a second (from 3 to 30 with 15 being the default)
Time is the transition time in tenths of a second which can vary from 3 (0.3 seconds) to 30 (3.0 seconds).
Values above or below these values will be clamped. If the time is blank, then the default is 1.5 seconds.
