Hi, I’m new to Ignition and would like to know how does one get an alarm acknowledge bit from Ignition? I need to acknowledge my plc code / fb from the Ignition SCADA. Is this possible with Ignition? Thanks in advance.

This can be done from the ack button built into the ignition alarm viewer component. In the scripting menu of the component set up a tag write On the click of the acknowledgment button. hope this helps. If needed I can send you a snip of a recent application that I have done. Hi
