file end remains. For example, the old message file had messages 1
through 10 and a background message. The new message file has
messages 1 through 2 and a background message. After the new
message file is downloaded, the new message file contains new
messages 1 through 2, a new background message, and old messages
3 through 10. If the new message file does not contain a background
message, the background message is blank. If just the new message
file is to be retained in memory, a clear memory operation should be
performed before downloading a new message file. This erases the
entire memory of the display.A message trigger or addition to the
queue is required in order to view the downloaded messages.
See InView Protocol, Chapter 4, for information on how to trigger a
message or add it to the queue.
Download Message
Download Message downloads only those messages selected from the
message list. To select messages, highlight them from the Message File
Details box in the InView messaging software (project) window. Once
they have been downloaded, the display behaves the same as if the
entire message file were downloaded. A message trigger or addition to
the queue is required in order to view the downloaded messages.
See InView Protocol, Chapter 4, for information on how to trigger a
message or add it to the queue.
Trigger Message and Broadcast Trigger Message
Trigger Message and Broadcast Trigger Message allows up to 64
messages selected from the message list to be displayed after
download. This is the message queue. Each message is displayed for
the amount of the pause time that is set when the message is created.
If new messages are downloaded using this option, a clear message
queue command is done before the messages are downloaded. The
old messages are erased and replaced with the new ones. Broadcast
Trigger Message downloads the selected messages to all displays on
the network.
TIP
Only messages of the highest priority are displayed.
When using this option, ensure that all the messages
have the same priority.
