Note: To include a ‘#’ character as part of the text, insert it as an escape character. For
example, to display ‘Box # 1’ type ‘Box \# #’. Only hashes to be displayed to the
left of the # required for value display need escape characters, as the first hash
without a meta character is taken to be the point at which the value should be
displayed.
Text for Boolean State 0 and Boolean State 1 are entered in the State 0 Text: field and State 1 Text:
field.
