Panel: Instrument Selection

 
The Instrument Selection panel contains a number of large buttons for selecting the required object.
Clicking a button will open a selection window where you either choose to create a new object of the required type or to open an existing object of that type.
(Remark: You can achieve this also via the NMEA Object Explorer panel)
 
Observe that finding the right object is much easier if you assign a tag to it as in the examples below.
