Train Location Reporting
This determines when a report of a train's location is displayed in the message window . Reports can be produced whenever a train passes a timing point in its schedule, can be restricted to trains which are at least 2, respectively 5 minutes late, or can be turned off entirely.
Event Settings
The rest of this tab is used to control settings for various events. The type of event is selected with the Event dropdown and then the other controls can be used to alter the way reports are displayed for the event.

This selects the type of event to be modified. Note that the settings for 'Simulation specific message #1, 2, 3 & 4' will only apply to the simulation being played, and will not be selected on other simulations.
