A Message Range is a kind of filter for the message-logging process and describes a set of messages to be displayed in a Logical Console. A Message Range is the summary of all messages which satisfy all range conditions that have been defined.
To ADD, COPY, DELETE, DISPLAY, MODIFY or RENAME a Message Range
Place the cursor on the Message Range option under the heading Logical Environment on the Environment Menu and press Enter.

Cmd
In the command line preceding the range you want to process, enter
"DI" to display, "MO" to
modify or "DE" to delete it. Press Enter.
Name *
Name of the Message Range.
R *
This is the reply indicator:
* = list all ranges regardless of indicator
(blank) = list only those ranges without an indicator
X = list only those ranges with an indicator
Message *
Message ID. A plus sign (+) appears, if the Message Range is defined
by more than one Message ID.
Job *
A plus sign (+) appears, if the Message Range is defined by more than
one job.
Console *
The letter in the first column under this heading indicates whether
the range is linked to a Logical Console and how it is linked:
I = linked as an Included Message Range
X = linked as a Excluded Message Range
The names of the Logical Consoles to which the Message Ranges are linked are listed in the second column. A plus sign (+) appears, if the Message Range is linked to more than one Logical Console.

Place the cursor on a range you want to suppress and press Enter.
The name of the range you selected is written to the List Excluded Message Range window and the following message confirms that the range has been added to the Logical Console:

An Included Message Range is a Message Range linked to a Logical Console. The messages of an Included Message Range are logged to and displayed in the Logical Console, if they do not match the conditions defined for Excluded Message Ranges (see the subsection Defining an Excluded Message Range).
You can add any number of Message Ranges to a console. The name of the Message Range displayed in the Name field under the Included Message Ranges option is only the FIRST range linked to the console. This is the range you selected to begin creating the Logical Console.
If there are more Included Message Ranges, the plus sign (+) preceding Included MessageRanges is highlighted. To list all ranges linked to the Logical Console, place the cursor on the Included Message Ranges option and press Enter.
Name
The name of the first Message Range of the set of Included Message
Ranges which defines the Logical Console. This is the range you selected to
create the console.
Priority
Enter a number to define the representation priority of all messages
in the Included Message Range. If a message satisfies conditions of more than
one Included Message Range of the Logical Console, it is displayed with the
representation parameters of the range with the highest priority.
The higher the number, the higher the priority. For example, if range "AB" has a priority of 10, range "BC" has a priority of 5 and the message "B" satisfies conditions of both ranges, then message "B" assumes representation parameters and priority of range "AB".
Frozen
Enter "X" here to assign the attribute
frozen to all included messages. Frozen messages remain on the Logical Console
screen until released by the operator.
The representation parameters you enter here are for all messages from the Included Message Range, i.e. this Message Range linked to this Logical Console. These messages are displayed in the color and with the prefix and attribute you select.
The entries you make here have the highest priority. You can leave these fields blank, but if you do enter parameters here, they override any representation parameters you defined for the Message Range itself (see the subsection Defining a Message Range).
