I am New to the AD C-more system, so bear with me. I have all kinds of expirience with Other Panel. Can anybody tel me how to monitor 16 Bit Individually without creating a mess of indicator lights. (16 total monitor states.). This is for a SR489 Generator Recloser who's address is 30529 and is in "16 Bit " and ranged 0 -65535. I 've tried MultiState Text and Lookup text but It must be easier to status "16 bit (On - Off) without creating a table of 65526 possibilities. This is to Immulate the LED status on the Relay front panel. On a Side NOTE. I wished I found out about C-more Panels sonner. It's fun to create things with it. Thanks, Joseph

From your post I take it that the protocol is MODBUS.
Creating a tag for an indicator I selected 'discrete ' as the tag data type. I selected memory type '3 ' and the address as '30529 '. it offered a 'bit ' selection and I slected '0 '.
So it seems triggering off a bit of a word, even in the '3 ' area is possible. You'll still have to make 16 of them but it seems fairly straightforward.
