2. Expand the Database hierarchy if required.
3. Right-click on the item for which you want to display a List. (For example, the outstation for which you want to display a List of points, alarms, or events.)
   A context -sensitive menu is displayed, the available lists vary depending on the object that you selected.

   

4. Select the relevant menu option. (For example, the Display Objects option.)
