After you have defined the Cursor List object addresses, you are
ready to begin creating the object lists.

Step 2: Create the Object Lists

To monitor and control all the stations of the Automobile
Luxury-Options Assembly, create these five object lists:

two Numeric Data Display Object Lists

two Multistate Indicator Object Lists

one Local Message Object List

In this application, each object list serves a different function. These
functions are outlined below.

Assembly Stations

A Numeric Display Object List displays the station number of the
automobile assembly sequence. The station numbers range from
1 to 57. Because five visible states are configured, five stations are
always visible. The values displayed depend on where the cursor
moves and the number of preview states selected.

Luxury Option

The Local Message List contains the luxury option descriptions for
each station from 1 to 57. The Local Message Object List for the
Scrolling List object displays the appropriate luxury option
description for each of the five stations currently visible based on the
cursor position.
