You have already asked the same question in another part of the forum.
Here is again the answer.

nformation how to use the OPC UA client in WinCC OA you can find in the WinCC OA Documentation:
https://www.winccoa.com/documentation/W ... asics.html

For triggering alerts in WinCC OA you can use the _alert_hdl config. How to configure an _alert_hdl config is described in the WinCC OA Documentation:
https://www.winccoa.com/documentation/W ... RA-17.html

Interaction between data and the user interface is possible with objects and scripts in CONTROL (WinCC OA programming language).
https://www.winccoa.com/documentation/W ... _GEDI.html

We recommend to attend a basic training when starting to work with WinCC OA.
Information for the training modules you can find in the WinCC OA World:
