Text snippets showing 0 instead of variable values in new alarm group

Hi,

I have a problem after adding a new alarm group. In the text snippets, the values of the linked variables are not displayed. In Watch the values are correct, but in the displayed alarm message they appear as 0. The variables are placed inside {}. In the previous alarm groups everything worked correctly. The whole configuration was even copied from a working example, so I’m not sure where the issue could be. Has anyone experienced a similar situation or has any idea what I should check? Thanks in advance.

Hi @Asia_Kowal ,
Could you give us more details?
Automation Studio/ Automation Runtime/mapp Services version?
Have you already checked in the logger any suspicious warning/error?
First, double check one more time the syntax, for example:

Sometimes when I add an alarm in the AlarmXList configuration I don’t see the correct message on the HMI, but the sequence of clean configuration + rebuild configuration + transfer with “Force initial installation“ fix the issue.
I hope it helps.
Thanks
Ciao

Hi @Asia_Kowal ,
I read CASE -40424 to report that in AS 6.3 - mapp AlarmX text snippet “&LimitText“ not working.
My colleague (thanks Noah!) during his investigation He found that mappAlarmX text snippet must be lowercase in AS 6.x, e.g. {&limittext}.

Could you check your text snippet settings?
My Example was wrong: {&OpData}, it must be {&opdata}

Ciao
Valerio
