Alarm properties, write to Priority

Ignition
1

Hi
Are there a way to write directly to a priority in a udt in ignition ?

i have tried what works with setpoint, but no luck

This works with setpoint:
{tag}/Sensor/Alarms/High Alarm.Setpoint A

But when i change to:
{tag}/Sensor/Alarms/High Alarm.Priority
It reads out the value so i know the path is working.

it will not write to the tag i have tried both string and numbers.

My goal is to make a dropdown in my popup for sensors to set the priority

I think you cannot write directly to the priority.

If you want to do that, you should bind the priority to an UDT parameter (if the alarm is inside an UDT) or to a tag and then write it.

Same deal as the Alarm delay then, annoying that some options have this block, it creats a huge amount of unnecessary memory tags in the UDTs
