View alarms and messages at runtime

The operator can view alarms and other messages at runtime using these graphic objects and graphic displays:

This information	Appears in this object	In this default graphic display
Alarm messages	alarm list	[ALARM] Alarm list
System activity	diagnostics list	[DIAGNOSTICS] How the diagnostics list works at runtime
Information messages	information message display	[INFORMATION] How the information message display works at runtime
Local messages	local message display	no default display How the local message display works at runtime

TIP:

The default alarm, information, and local message displays open automatically when the assigned tags match the messages’ trigger values. They can also be opened using goto display buttons. Operators can acknowledge and clear messages on these displays.

All of these objects can be placed on any graphic display.
