Home Screen

Under Construction

Summary

The Home screen is the default screen presented once the application is launched. The screen provides access to system settings and to all standard installed applications.

Resources

What the app does

The home screen presents these options:

  1. Icon list which provides access to the main applications installed.
  2. Settings menu for system-level options.
  3. Date and Time information.
  4. The DNA Helix can be stop or rotated to the app of choice, which will open any of the applications installed on the platform with a single touch.
  5. Icon to list all installed applications.

In all application instances, a simple touch is all that is required to launch a given application.

Known Bugs

The following issues and limitations can be anticipated on the HomeScreen:

  • From HomeScreen, tap the three lines in center to show list of all applications. Tap AMB SIMULATOR to load amb simulator application. BEFORE TOUCHING ANYWHERE ELSE tap LOAD SCRIPT, and then tap randomizerDemo. After script loads, tap anywhere in the textArea. Application crashes. If textArea is tapped prior to tapping LOAD SCRIPT button, application does not crash when subsequent instructions are followed.
  • The HomeScreen application does not actually connect with the CAN (or VCAN) bus, so the data fields of the application (MPH, % Charge, Miles Range, Interior Temperature, Exterior Temperature) are not updated at this time.
  • Automotive Message Broker support for a CAN simulation is provided, but the simulation tool to simulate data is not provided at this time.
  • Currently applications (in particular HomeScreen) cannot terminate other applications because of W3C widget sandboxing. This is why applications launched from HomeScreen, and then exited (via the white ‘back’ arrow in the lower left-hand corner) cannot be re-launched from HomeScreen (HomeScreen thinks they are still running and essentially attempts to switch to a non-running application).
