7. Filter the Marquee Message List

The Marquee Message list can contain many messages. You can use the Search function to quickly find a specific Marquee Message or subset of Marquee Messages.

To initiate a search, do one of the following.

  • Select Search on the View menu.
  • Click the Search button on the toolbar.

After you initiate the request, the Marquee Messages search dialog box opens.

You can filter the list by any combination of:

  • Marquee Message ID
  • Alarm ID

You can use the following wildcards:

* Use this wildcard to search for any number of characters at this point in the string. For example, if you want to display a list of Marquee Messages for Marquee Devices that start with "M" and end with "X", enter M*X in the Marquee ID field.
? Use this wildcard to search for any character in this place in the string. For example, if you want to display the list of Marquee Messages for Marquee Devices whose names are three characters long, and whose first character is "M" and third character is "X", enter M?X in the Marquee ID field.
Note: There are no implied wildcards. If you do not include or terminate your search string with an asterisk, only those items that match your request exactly will be returned.

Click Cancel to close the dialog box and do no further filtering.

Click OK to display the filtered list you selected and close the dialog box.
