prefer.

Type the text to display when the input’s state is 0. For example, if the point represents the
state of a relay, you can type open. If you want the cell to blink in this state, select the Flash
checkbox.
Type the text to display when the input’s state is 1. For example, if the point represents the
state of a relay, you can type close. If you want the cell to blink in this state, select the
Flash checkbox.
You can specify the text and background colors to use while the point is in either state, or
when the point’s quality is bad.
You can also use the Font tab to edit the text’s font, style, alignment and size. Note that the
same font, style, alignment and size will be used when the data point is in alarm or when its
quality is bad.
