Hi ICI,
You will need to make an expression using an "if" statement.
For example: if(..\AB_PLC.n7:5_0=true,"OFF",if(..\AB_PLC.n7:5_1=true,"HAND",if(..\AB_PLC.n7:5_2=true,"AUTO",if(..\AB_PLC.n7:5_3=true,"JOG",""))))
This assuming you are monitoring a bit. If you monitor a word the statement will use the value of the number instead of true.
I hope this helps.

One last thing I forgot to mention (goes with post above)...
This has been the only way I have been able to figure out on how to make a logical expression (displaying text, show different colored text, depending on the state). It would be nice if I could select the text properties (color, etc) for the 'on' state, and make them different for the 'off' state. So for that I end up using 2 logical expressions stacked on top of each other and leave the opposite state 'blank'. Like I said, be sure to select 'transparent' for the expressions that are 'on-top' of the your 'base' expression. (this "base" expression can be a plate, inset, etc.)
