A background message of Rockwell Automation is automatically created. This is
also indicated by the letter B in the message list below the message creation box.
Message number 1 is highlighted and ready for creation. Create a message by
typing in the message box. Attributes for the messages can be changed or added
using the pull down menus located above the message creation box or from the
toolbar. Once message number 1 has been created, select the down arrow or type
2 in the box and select the Goto button. This allows message number 2 to be
created.
There is a size displayed in the lower right of the window. This is the size of the
message that is being created. This number starts from 11 and increases to a
maximum number that is determined by setting the partition size in software.
This is based on a total of 200,000 bytes. The smaller the partition size the more
messages are available. The limits are 450 bytes per message, 444 messages
minimum to 50 bytes per message, 4000 messages maximum. To change the
partition size, select File, followed by Partition.
See the following sections for more information regarding the message attributes.
