Cre ating a Mes sage Board
You may have an application for an OIT in which the OIT operator must be able to leave messages for someone else
to read. The message board feature creates a popup window that can be displayed on the OIT for such a purpose.
Once displayed, the OIT operator ‘draws’ on the touch screen to write messages. The messages remain on the
message board until a touch screen command is issued to clear the message board or the OIT is reset. One message
board may be created per project and it must be created from a popup window. You can only call up the message
board using the Direct Window Object. The message board popup window can contain any graphics objects and the
OIT operator can write over any graphics objects that appear on the window.
