                                          ^^^^
"type" is an Ada keyword. What is transmit_message?

> msg (1) : signals RENAMES m1.signals_record;
                            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is probably a type, if signals_record from above is a type.

If you want to rename a component of msg, msg (1) say,
then the renamed thing is an object. In this case it is
of type signals_record. Not easy to tell without seeing
some more source, preferably compilable.

 ... : signals_record RENAMES msg (1);
