Right now the infrormation in the "Acknowledge" column cannot be changed.
Which information shall be displayed is defined in C++ code which cannot be modified.

Hello,

please have a look into WinCC_OA Help:
[System Management - Diagnostics Alert & Event panel - Alert table]
There you can find the "Acknowledgement" and the possible states.

We wouldn't recommend to change this "characters", because there are (hard-coded) dependencies according the "_ack_state".

best regards,
Andreas

You could replace the texts in the function 'aes_editAlertsBeforeDisplay' of the library 'asModifyDisplay'.

Please note that the mentioned function aes_editAlertsBeforeDisplay() only works when prerequisites are fulfilled. This function is not intended to be used in common use cases.

If you want to change the content of the alert table you could implement an own function which reads the content of the table or specific columns and replaces information.
Please always take into account that replacing information may become a performance issue if the table contains a lot of entries.
