# Example: Use a list indicator

In this example, the list indicator monitors the Indicator connection to display the mode of operation of a blower. The blower can operate manually or automatically, or it can be turned off.

1. Create a list indicator with three states.
2. Set the caption to "Off" for State 0, "Manual" for State 1, and "Automatic" for State 2.

The application reads the tag you assign to the Indicator connection and updates the indicator’s state when the value changes. This state change enables the current operation mode to be shown.
