Hey all,

I have a question about the alarm enable settings. If an alarm is active and the enabled setting turns false, does that alarm clear and/or drop out of a pipeline? I would think that it would, but I had a few alarms seem to persist through a false enabled state last night and they kept calling people.

Hello,

Can you attach a screenshot of the alarm configuration for one of the problem tags?

Best,

I was given some incorrect information and the alarms were never actually being disabled so everything was working the way it was supposed to. I fixed the logic error on the PLC side and now everything is good. I meant to post back about this but I forgot. Sorry!
