a descriptive message text, for example, conveyor chain lubrication.
b) Enter descriptive locations, for example infeed, in the [Facility 1]...[Facility 3]
columns.
c) Set a time interval in the [Interval] column with the dropdown menu.
ð Depending on which interval is set in the [Interval] column, other columns
appear to the right, or the content of the columns to the right changes.

Deferring cyclic messages
You can specify how often each cyclic message may be ignored. This is useful, for
example, if the current production must not be interrupted.
ü Deferring a cyclic message:
a) Set a value in the [Max. number of resettings] column.
ð For example, if you set value [3], you can defer the message three times.
b) Enter a value in [h] in the [Period of resetting [h]] column.
ð If you set, for example, the value of [2h], the message re-appears after
[2h].
ð If the [Max. number of resettings] is reached, you can no longer defer the mes-
sage.
