Summary:

Unlike other alarm types, Summary Alarms are not sorted with the Cicode function AlarmSetInfo(). This would normally be achieved with the following Cicode: AlarmSetInfo(<AN>,10,"{name}"); AlarmSetInfo(<AN>,9,1);

Solution:

Sorting Summary Alarms on fields other than time is not currently supported by CitectSCADA. Summary alarms can only be sorted on OnTime, OffTime, or AckTime via the ini settings [Alarm]SummarySort and [Alarm]SummarySortMode.
