Specifying Changes to Message Attributes
You can instruct RMS to change the attributes of the message that triggers the rule.
Specify the new settings in the following fields on the RMS : Message Modification
panel (if you do not want to change an attribute, leave the corresponding field blank):
Field Description
Alarm Determines if the message should sound an alarm. The value must be blank, N (no),
or Y (yes).
Color Determines the color of the message. The value must be blank, B (blue), G (green),
P (pink), R (red), T (turquoise), W (white), or Y (yellow).
Monitor Determines if the message should be delivered to monitor-class users. The value must
be blank, N (no), or Y (yes).
Intens Determines the display intensity. The value must be blank, H (high), or L (low).
Hlight Determines the method of highlighting. The value must be blank, B (blink),
R (reverse video), or U (underscore).
NRD Determines if the message should be processed as a non-roll-delete (NRD)
message. The value must be blank, N (no), or Y (yes).
Scan Determines if the text in the Replacement Text fields should be scanned for the @
highlight characters. The value must be blank, N (no), or Y (yes).
Msg Code Determines which OCS users can receive the changed message. The value must be
blank or in the hexadecimal range 00 through FF.
Note Only the Color, Hlight, and Intens fields are relevant if you intend to replace the message text and use a
panel to display the new text.

Specifying Text to Replace the Message
You can specify text to replace the message that triggers the rule. The message
handler delivers the new text instead. You can specify the method of text delivery,
either as a panel or line by line.
Note Panels require a terminal for display. If you use panels in a rule within the ruleset, ensure that the handler
delivers the message to a terminal. For example, specify Y in the Deliver field and start the message
handler as a MSGPROC in an OCS environment. If the environment does not support panels, the panel
cannot be delivered but the message handler continues operating.
