When using the Local Alarm Buzzer and a Global Alarm Buzzer, the Alarm Buzzer will activate
and remain active if either condition is true. If a Local Alarm Buzzer is used, the Alarm Buzzer
will turn off if a new screen is displayed on the OIT, regardless of whether or not the Local
Alarm condition is still true.

Displaying Alarms using the Dynamic Message Object

Though the Dynamic Message object can be used to display any messages, it is particularly useful for displaying warning
messages and instructions that are tied to an alarm condition. Similar to the Alarm LED and Alarm Buzzer, you can
construct a dynamic message object that changes messages according to a PLC coil or register value.
