Hello, I would like to know, when we use Alarm Status Table,

Instead show all `active`/`cleared` alarm there is function that we can use to filter recent alarms ?  
For exemple if I want show recent `cleared` or `unacknowlodged` alarms where `priority is Low`.

You could use the filterAlarms extension function:

```auto
#def filterAlarm(self, alarmEvent):
	if alarmEvent.priority == alarmEvent.priority.Low:
		return True
	else:
		return False

```
