Advice
The following points can aid in mitigating UCI load issues on TSC Series hardware:
- Replace any G2 video preview windows on the UCI with the Media Display.
- Reduce the overall number of control elements in a UCI.
- Avoid excessive image file scaling. Match the resolution as they would be shown on the touch panel.
- Set a UCI’s Swipe Disable to Yes and Enable Button Swipe to No.
- Avoid UCI layer transitions.
- Reduce the number of active VU meters.
- Avoid using VU Meters using the Segmented Meter Type.
- Ensure that your CSS is completely clean. Run it through a CSS validator.
- Ensure there are not any non-QSYS-supported CSS properties in the file.
- Linking multiple styles using ‘@import’ can slow TSC processing.
- CSS references images a single time vs dragging in an image creates a duplicate each time it's used.
- Limit the use of large file size plugins as much as possible as they are additive.
- Use SVG images vs JPG/PNG.
- Use CSS icons in place of images.
