Hi,

Ignition version 7.7.5  
We’ve got an OPC tag with an alarm configured with value timestamp.  
When the alarm becomes active, it don’t take value timestamp, but system, even if value timestamp is configured (cf Capture.png).  
Are we missing something?

This was actually discovered a few weeks ago as a bug. Should be fixed in the next release of Ignition.
