User interface panel development
The third objective was to develop an easy-to-use user interface panel, which controls the multimedia switching network. A rapid development and price reduction of small-size colour LCD displays has made their use favourable for many European SMEs in user interfaces. A graphical display equipped with soft keys supports easily different European languages and the language can be changed even during the lesson.
The main requirements for the user panel have been easy way to set up different languages, a graphics display and soft keys. Open source code operating system with Linux platform has been selected to shorten time-to-market, to reduce development costs and to minimise runtime royalties.
