Hi everyone,

I’m working on configuring alarms in Alarm Logging using WinCC v8.0. Here’s what I want to achieve:

• 'CAME IN': Font color RED
• 'WENT OUT': Font color GREEN
• 'ACKNOWLEDGED' : Flashing 
• 'NOT ACKNOWLEDGED': No flashing

I’m having an issue. In the Alarm Logging configuration, I found options to set colors for the 'CAME IN', 'WENT OUT' and 'ACKNOWLEDGED' states.

I want acknowledgment to control only the text flashing, not the font color.

Is there a way to disable color changes for the 'ACKNOWLEDGED' state? Or do you have any other suggestions?

Your advice would be helpful, thanks.

Hello j_sc,

If you mean flashing the background instead of the text, I'm afraid that's not possible. I've tried several ways and I haven't been able to. I'm afraid it's a system behavior.

Hi, 

I didn't want it that way. I want 'CAME IN' to be displayed in red and 'WENT OUT' in green. Acknowledging the alarm should not change these colors. The acknowledgment should only stop the flashing, without affecting the colors.
