You will need to create a tag that is connected to a timer component for your blinking rate. This could be on the gateway, client, or in the PLC. Then use scripting to color each row in your table and use the blink tag to determine which color it should be (i.e. "alarm" for row is true, if(blink, red, white) ).

I.e. if the value of the second coloumn of my power table is 1 I need to set the background colour of that row red, if the value is 10 the corrispondent row shoud be green. Thank you in advance Best regards Claudio
