Instructions for Use

To use the NI VeriStand silver workspace controls:

  1. Select Screen»Edit Mode to display the Workspace Controls palette and alignment grid.
  2. Click the Workspace Controls palette to expand the palette and view the available control and indicator categories.
  3. Click the plus sign next to the type of workspace object that you would like to place in the NI VeriStand Workspace.  This will expand the category and allow you to view the controls or indicators within that directory.

Would you mind adding the Silver LED, numeric indicator, vertical pointer slide (control), vertical fill slide (indicator), horizontal pointer slide (control), and horizontal fill slide (indicator)?
