This tab visually represents signals and positions of a selected touchpad widget in the heatmap form. Only one CSD and one CSX touchpad can be displayed at a time.

Note:

The

tab is disabled when there are no touchpad widgets in the configuration.

Display settings​

Manages heatmap data to display. These options are applicable for the CSX touchpad only.

  • Display mode

    – The drop-down menu with 3 options for the display format:

    • Touch reporting – Shows current detected touches only.

    • Line drawing – Joins the previous and current touches in a continuous line.

    • Touch Traces – Plots all the reported touches as dots.

  • Data type

    – The drop-down menu to select the signal type to display: Diff count, RawCount, and Baseline. Under Multi-frequency mode, RawCount and Baseline are available for three channels: 0, 1, 2.

  • Value type

    – The drop-down menu to select the type of a value to display:

    • Current – The last received value.

    • Max hold – The maximum value out of latest “Number of samples” received.

    • Min hold – The minimum value out of latest “Number of samples” received.

    • Max-Min – The difference between maximum and minimum values.

    • Average – The average value of latest “Number of samples” received.

  • Number of samples

    – Defines a length of history of data for the Line Drawing, Touch Traces, Max hold, Min hold, Max-Min, and Average options.

  • Display touch position

    – Selects the touchpad from which data displays in the heatmap. The options:

    • Display only CSX

    • Display only CSD

    • Display both.

Show signal​

Enables displaying data for each sensor if checked, otherwise displays only touches. This option is applicable for the CSX touchpad only.

  • Color range

    – Defines the range of sensor signals within which the color gradient is applied. If the sensor signal is outside the range, the sensor color is either minimum or maximum out of the available color palette.

Touch report​

  • CSD touches table – Displays the current X and Y touch position (Z value is always 0) of the detected touches on the CSD touchpad. If the CSD touchpad is neither configured nor a touch is detected, the touch table is empty. When the two-finger detection is enabled for the CSD touchpad, two touch positions are reported.

  • CSX touches table – Displays the current X and Y touch position and Z values (amplitude) of the detected touches on the CSX touchpad. If the CSX touchpad is neither configured nor a touch is detected, the touch table is empty. The middleware supports simultaneous detection up to three touches for the CSX touchpad touch, so the touch table displays all the detected touches.
