Hi, I’m newer with Ignition. My question is about define an Interval time that will show alarms on a table, for example from 2hours ago until now. I could fix the problem with Alarm Journal Table. But I couldn’t find a solution with Alarm Status Table. It isn’t posible to do this with Alarm Status Table?¿ Why not?¿ Thanks for your response in advance, Guillem ---

Alarm Status is **now** –current state of alarms. No interval would make sense. ---
