How to edit a counter file

3 — Creating and sending messages 83

Example 1 — Using a counter in a message

In this example, we will end up with a message on the Shipping sign

that counts down from 60 minutes over and over again:

NOTE: The Shipping sign can still display other messages.

1. Open Message Editor and create a new message:

2. Add a counter to the message by selecting Options>Counter and

then Counter 1. Then, after the counter icon, type a space followed

by minutes before next shipment:

1 2 ... 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 ... 149 150
