Control Web Creator

This is a graphics creation tool that allows you to easily design Web content that is published by the ELC500 Control unit. You can creatively design content by arranging Web components such as switches, lamps and meters on the screen and then setting the properties. You can link your content to information in the ELC500 without any knowledge of HTML.

Same style of operation as the program display image creation tool.
Components can be arranged by dragging and dropping.
Detailed component settings are easy using properties.

Components can be resized without reduction in quality.
Images can be pasted in.
