Hello,

We would like to show alarm active, acknowledged counts on Ignition Edge screen.

We normally use system.alarm.queryStatus function in Ignition. However, in Edge we do not have compute license hence not able to use script function.

Is there any expression function to get alarm counts? or any other method we can use?

Thank you in advance!

Edge Panel without the Compute plugin can use scripting from a UI, just not in pure gateway scope. Since there is typically only one client allowed, it isn't a CPU burden.
