Text Channel

Overview

Text Channels look-up a textual representation for a given input value.

If the input has distinct values for each possible text value (i.e. an enumeration) then a list of value => text may be specified.

If the input has multiple bits to indicate active states then a set of masks with priority may be specified (Advanced Mode).

Adding / Removing Items

Use the Add and Delete buttons to the bottom right of the list to add or remove rows.

There is also a blank row at the end of the list - entering values in the blank row will append a new entry.

The order of items may be adjusted with the Up and Down buttons.

In advanced mode, the list has 3 columns:

Bitmask

Value to mask (logical AND) with the input and if all the bits are set then the item is active.

Priority

If any items are active then the one with the ‘highest’ priority shall be shown. Lower numbers have a higher priority (e.g. Priority 0 overrides Priority 1).

Text

The text to display if the item is active.
