Event Log Messages are displayed on the Event Display Part. The message to be displayed on the Event Display
must first be registered in the Event Log list. A bit or word device controls each message. If the bit or word device
activates (either ON/OFF or value limit), the corresponding message is displayed in the Event Display. By default,
