  • Right click on the dashboard and select "Show full screen" command.

  • Right click and use the command "Back to window mode"


Configuring data screens

Data screens are configured using the Virtual Dashboard designer.

Use the menu command Configure virtual dashboard either from the "Screen" menu or the right click menu to open the Virtual Dashboard designer application.

You can use the Virtual Dashboard to:

  • Edit properties of default screen layouts
  • Assign a different layouts to factory screens
  • Clear screens etc

As soon as you save the changes made to the screens using Virtual dashboard editor, changes will be instantly reflected in Live monitor's virtual dashboard. So it is possible to keep the virtual dashboard window open while editing layouts using the external editor application.
