Summary:

The AlarmDsp function takes a ‘count’ parameter specifying the length of the alarm list to display. The first time AlarmDsp is called with a non-zero count value the size of the alarm list is set and can not be changed, no matter what count value is specified at a later time.

Solution:

This problem has been fixed in CitectHMI/SCADA version 6.10. AlarmDsp now allows the length of an alarm list to be changed dynamically.
