Enable a Disabled Alarm

The Disabled Alarms page displays a list of the alarms that have been disabled by an operator (see Disable Alarms).

If your project uses the SxW or Tab Style templates (accessible via a starter project), you can re-enable an alarm using commands that are accessible via the Disabled Alarms page.

To enable an alarm in a standard project, you need to define a command that uses the AlarmEnable Cicode function.
