Panelbuilder23 message display options

[a062549 5]

I've inherited (uh-oh) a PV600 that need some messages displayed. the states are already set to N21:24 register, BUT there are 28 message texts not including the E error text. I have set the first 16 registers, N21:24/0-N21:24/15, to do the state set for the message number in PB32, but unsure about the last 13 states with only the 16 bit word. I am talking to two SLC 5/04's on DH+. Any suggestions? A simpler way? Thanks! Edited 5 Feb 2012 by a062549

instead of using N21:34 as bit - use value now you have 32767 messages Eg In the PLC do the following N7:24 is an unused word * this is to buffer the working value so that the panelview reads the solution N21:24 Move 0 N7:24 * Set the default message XIC Condition 1 ---- Move 1 N7:24 XIC Condition 2 ---- Move 2 N7:24 XIC Condition 3 ---- Move 3 N7:24 XIC Condition 4 ---- Move 4 N7:24 MOV N7:24 N21:24 * set the message number for display The order of the conditions sets the priority of the messages Condition 4 has the highest priority
