Hi,

Another question about message alarm. Is it possible to put dynamic text depends on variable from PLC in one message text ? In my program i have a general bit for cylinder's error and another tag [integer] for error code.

Another question about 64-integer settings. I'd like to increase the amount of bits for alarms, because 32 is not enough for me. I changed the PLC variable for LINT [64 bits] and it doesn't work completely.

Curious about any possibilites to increase the amount of alarms to amount that I want on list(more than 64).

Hi,

I have the same problem as description above - messages don't clear correctly. After installation a new MessageListByBit created by Godra and added special code in driver's utilities to avoid ComComponent problem I can use this object but it doesn't work properly.
1. The messages show for all of bits but they don't update automatically. The only way to show another combination of active bits is to set all of them to 0 in PLC and set them again in combination that we want. 
2. The messages show but before, it is necessary to set first bit from 0 to 1 to display messages for another bits.

I'd like to have an automatically list that change in any time when variable value will change and shows me actual messages due to bits that are active without resetting them all before, like typical alarming in HMI.

I use Guardlogix from AB
Variable's name : Alarms1
Data Type : DINT [32bit]

Really appreciate if someone helps me how to fix it
