Alarm control on Unified Comfort panel v16 - can't scroll list or use toolbar

I have a 10 inch panel that can only show about 13 active alarms on the alarm control.  If I have more than 13 active alarms there is no way to scroll the alarm list to view the alarms.   

Does anyone know if it is possible to use the toolbar on the touch panel and how to scroll the list of alarms in an alarm control?  touch gestures don't appear to do anything.  

Wincc Unified version 16 update 4.    

The alarm control seems broken if the alarm source = pending alarms

If i change the alarm source to logged alarms then I am able to scroll the list with a finger.  

Same with me.

Hello Users,

I used WinCC Unified V18 here. (configured MTP1000 in it and used simulation)

I also observed the similar behavior as mentioned above by you all.

Look for "​Alarms - show current" in this Alarm Control section of WinCC Unified Engineering V18 - System Manual.

By pressing the "Alarms - show current" button, you can scroll the active alarms. However by default this button is not pressed.

Check this out and share your experience.

Hi,

It was helpful and it works for me (see attached pictures).

But I don't want to use the FUnction bar and I ddid'nt find the way to activate this functionnality by script. If someone has the solution and can share, it will be nice !

Thanks !

Hi,

I've been testing some configurations for the Alarm control. If you want to be able to scroll the alarms straight without using the button on the function bar, you have to go the alarm control properties.

Properties -> Miscellaneous -> Alarms - show current -> Uncheck

If you uncheck this option, when you open the alarm control you will be able to scroll without using any button. You can also choose if you want the last alarm to appear on top or bottom on the format properties.

Properties -> Format -> Sorting direction -> Ascending or descending

You can also use the filter if you want to show only the active alarms, by checking State = Incoming.

Hope this can help any of you.
