Is there a way to make a Alarm Acknowledge button that will Ack all the alarms in VTScada and send the Ack command to the PLC?
Currently we have layered the PLC Ack command button (momentary button) behind the build-in Acknowlegde All button, and we need to press it twice to Ack alarms in VTScada and in the PLC. Looking for a way to combine it in one button.
Please provide an example of how *this is done.
May be set in a parent context tag if you have Modbus devices with differing address offsets.
I have no idea how to put a context tag into an application's configuration.

This help page describes thin client licensing as follows.
If you have a multi-server application and want to allow connections to more than just one server, each must be licensed to allow client connections.

It is common for one of your server keys to allow many thin client connections and the others to have few or none.

I built a Lufkin SAMS controller inside of my VTScada and it automatically built all the TAG's as either Analog Status or Digital Status TAG's (Legacy TAG's) I am trying to set the lowlow / low / high / highhigh limits for the Analog Status points but I found that these types only allow for a Low/High alarm, but in the support document the picture used for this TAG is the Calculations I/O Analog
Hey guys,
We have a decently large application (80k tags) with lots of Flow Computers. We have Low Flow setpoints and Debounce timers settable by operations and just go the Alarm tab on each Analog Status (FC still uses old style tags).
One issue we've noticed is if you change the parent tag type, or have a hard shutdown due to server issues, all these values get wiped out and get set to

I would like to use the selector switch tag type as it has built in feedback alarms and the switch widgets. However, the components I am using will pulse the command to its state.

Parent Child References are the easiest to map. However, I am exploring the possibility that the hierarchy for an application might require references to properties in an adjacent tag in the hierarchy.
