Message Window

The message bar or message window of the WAGO Device Manager is located at the bottom of the interface. Errors, warnings, success messages and additional information are continuously displayed here during configuration.

First, the message bar is displayed:

Pos.	Description
1		Opens the message window for detailed information.
1		Minimizes the message window and displays the message bar.
2	Displays the number of errors. The indicator flashes until the message window is opened.
3	Displays the number of warnings.
4	Displays the number of success messages.
5	Indicates the amount of additional information.
6	Displays the last message for a few seconds. If there is an error message, it is highlighted in red.

The complete list of messages with detailed information is displayed in the message window. The button opens the message list:

The “Errors,” “Warnings,” “Successes” and “Info” buttons in the message window are switches that, when activated, display corresponding messages (button is colored) and, when clicked again, hide corresponding messages (button is grayed out).

The buttons can be used to carry out the following functions:
