Summary:

The Multi-Digital alarms State Description field {State_Desc,n} does not get updated on the Alarm Page when the alarm changes state.

Solution:

Set the Realarm field to 1. A value of 1 in this field causes a new Time and State Description {State_Desc,n} to be recorded when the states change. With a value of 0, only the Time and State Description {State_Desc,n} of the first alarm state is recorded on the Alarm Pages.
