Overview

The instrument panel is a compact way to fit multiple (4) buttons, switches or dials into one block. It uses composite signals for both input and output.

Input & Output

Interestingly the input and output composite of the instrument panel are linked, any composite channel that is unchanged by the panel will remain what it was in the input.
Meaning you can chain multiple panels in series provided they all use different channels.

Displays

Dial

Functions like a normal dial block.

Gauge

Functions like a normal gauge block, just without the secondary input.

Indicator

Functions like a normal indicator block.

Bar Segment

Seven Segment

Radial Segment

Inputs

Button

Functions like a normal button, except instead of having a separate push and toggle variant, you get to select it in the property menu.

Arrow Button

Functions like a normal button, except its shaped like a triangle, the direction it points in can be changed in the property menu.

Flip Switch

Functions like a toggle button.
