Our team recently updated to ignition 8.3.4 and think we found a bug with the AlarmStatusTable.

When the enableActiveTab is unchecked the alarms page is blank, however, checking this box then enables the entire view. Work around is to just enable the active tab, but this shouldn’t hide the alarm status table if disabled. I have included screenshots to clarify. Thanks!

I believe this is the expected behavior when both tabs have their enabled state set to False. I’ve never liked the prop name of `enableActiveTab`, as that prop essentially drives the _display_ state of the listed items within that tab. By setting `enableActiveTab` to `false`, you are specifying that you do not want the user to have access to the information within that tab.
