Alarm counting

Post by kim »

Hello

Is there any way to count the number of active alarms?

I like to have a number at the alarm icon which tells user how many alarm are active.

You can use an action on the alarm to increment/decrement a Tag. That tag would then tell you how many alarms are active. You would need to decide when you want to decrement an alarm, either on it going inactive, or on it being acknowledged.
