Dear Emmanuel,

we are talking about the regulation of the current on the magnets, many times they have to be regulated in couple. The operator has requested one knob per magnet, plus other two knobs to adjust the scales. They want this because they adjust the current looking other instruments (..old real analog instruments).

We are a small lab with limited man-power therefore I'm looking to a COTS solution but integrated with EPICS.

>>>>"To me, the problem you describe is in large part due to wrong UI design."

I'm in the process to design many UI, please feel free to point me out the docs/books/urls to learn more on this topic.

Thank you very much.

"how do I want to interact with the 'system'?"

The answer you will find there is likely to be specific to your case at hand. Therefore for a more detailed answer, you probably will need to share more of the details of what you are trying. What do you want to set through those knobs? How many knobs do your need? Where is the user? etc.
