Figure 7-28 Add sign variable tab

Configuring sign messages
You compose, test, and save message strings displayed on wall signs on the Add sign message tab.
Message strings indicate to the wall sign how messages are displayed. They are constructed of performance
variables, text, display features, and optionally graphics.
Consider the message strings defined in Figure 7-28. WallBoarder displays the first message string on the top
line [PS02-Top Line] of the wall sign. It displays the Long Call Wtg = component of the message string in red
[C001-Red]. The message string flashes [MO03-Flash] across the sign at display speed 2 [MI06-Display
Speed 2]. It is comprised of text you type (Long Call Wtg =) and Sign variable 1 [VA01-Calls], that displays the
real-time value for the longest waiting caller performance variable. The color of the sign variable statistic
changes with the wait time of the longest waiting caller, as per the threshold settings defined on the Variable
tab.
