Autorun Message Number

The autorun message is a message that displays when your DL40
Plus is powered up or anytime run mode is entered. It can be any
message including a message in the Message List.

Specify a message number (a value of 0 deactivates the autorun
message).

Note: If Remote I/O communications between a DL40 Plus and a
PLC are not established at power-up, the autorun message runs only
if switch 8 on Switch Bank #2 (Last State) is ON.

Background Message Number

The background message runs for a minimum of 2 seconds after the
last triggered message has finished its display wait time. The
background message is displayed until a valid message is triggered
or until Run mode is exited. The background message does not
support variable data.

Specify a message number (a value of 0 deactivates Background
Message).

Note: If Remote I/O communications between a DL40 Plus and PLC
are inactive or faulted, the Background Message runs only if switch
8 on Switch Bank #2 (Last State) is ON.
