DisplayLastAlarm, AlarmAck(1,-1) not functioning anymore in Citect 8R2.

Hi ,

In version Citect 7.2 I was using the cicode "DisplayLastAlarm" on top of each page of my project to indicate the latest active alarm to the operator.

With the command "AlarmAck(1,-1)" I was able to acknowledge this alarm but apparently this function is not applicable anymore in Citect 8R2.

See info from help file "1 - Acknowledge a page of alarms. An alarm page can contain more than one alarm list:
Set Value to the AN where the alarm list is displayed.
Set Value to 0 to acknowledge the (displayed) alarm list (on the active page) where the cursor is positioned.
Set Value to -1 to acknowledge all (displayed) alarm lists on the active page.This only applies to alarm lists created using AlarmDsp (and not those created using AlarmDspLast).

Any suggestions for a work around?

best regards,

Hans Dekker
