Disable/enable Alarm in v8

[nader.chinichian]

Hi
I try to bind a tag alarm enabled to a check box to trigger Disable/enable but I get error of mismatch type.
The tag is udt withing path;
PT5201/PV/Alarms/HiHi.Enable
I also try script to do it:
system.tag.writeBlocking([“PT5201/PV/Alarms/HiHi.Enable”],[False])
with no success. Both method worked in 7.9.10.
Can someone tell how to Disable/enable alarm?
Specially with binding.

Hi,
I think you are looking for the wrong property,
you may find your answer here:

"tag".AlarmEvalEnabled Status within a Tag Folder

Greetings, I need to check is any “tag”.AlarmEvalEnabled is FALSE within a tag folder. When the .AlarmEvalEnabled of any tag within the tag folder is set to FALSE, it should return a value of 1. Does anyone know how to do it?

Hi
No that’s not what I mean. I need user disable and enable individual alarm of alarms of a tag.
Each tag can have several alarms and I want to disable it.
I can read them easily but write command doesn’t work in v8

I want to not to use tag to able enable and disable alarm. For each analog tag have 4 level of alarm for that I had to define 4 additional tag to enable and disable it which cause more memory & CPU usage.
Directly change the attribute value is more better option.

Overriding Properties in UDT Instances by system.tag.writeAsync()

Would this work for you? def overrideAlarmConfig(tagPath, alarmName, alarmProperty, value): config = system.tag.getConfiguration(tagPath)[0] for alarm in config['alarms']: if alarm['name'] == alarmName: alarm[alarmProperty] = value break basePath = tagPath.rsplit('/',1)[0] system.tag.configure(basePath, config, 'm') overrideAlarmConfig("[default]PT2323/PV", "Hi", "enabled", True)
