The Message Pane is a record of CWMS software activities. It records the opening of a watershed, the opening of map windows, accessing of HEC-DSS files, and many other CWMS activities. System output log information displays in the Message Pane from the time you start CWMS until you exit. Messages related to incoming data are color-coded based on the quality of the data. Messages may also report a problem with a system component; problems with field equipment; a caution, warning, or flood event; or other critical situations.
