The Alarm Bar Object displays alarms scrolling horizontally along a single line. The alarm bar continuously scrolls
each alarm until the alarm is no longer active. If more than one alarm is active, the Alarm Bar Object appends each
alarm to the string of characters scrolled. This part can be used on window screens where space is very limited. It
also allows you to display long alarm text strings that are too long to be shown in the Alarm Display Object.
