Displaying live alarm data
Path: ProjectView> Config > double-click Alarms
Both in the Active Alarms and in the History Alarms widget you can set the alarm description to display live tag data.
To show the tag value, set a placeholder in Description entering the tag name in square brackets, for example "[Tag1]". At
run time, in Description column of Active Alarms widget the current value of the tag will be displayed. In History Alarms
widget or in .csv file the value at the time the alarm was triggered is displayed
Use '\' before '[]' if you want to show the '[]' in the description string, for example: \[Tag\[1\]\] will display the
string "[Tag[1]]".
Use '\', even when the tag label contains square brackets. For example, to display the live tag value of tag
“TAG]3” or “TAG[3]” use:
l TAG\]3 = [TAG\]3]
l TAG\[3\] = [TAG\[3\]]

Note: The csv file resulting from the dump of the alarm events list will also display the tag value in the description
column.
