Is there a way to configure the Alarm Status Table component to reference a dataset of selectable acknowledgement choices rather than using the text area? This way you could easily pareto assignable cause codes by alarm name.

Just need to create a popup with ACC/CAC selections? Any other methods people use?

Thanks!
