I am running into a growing list of alarms which were suppressed, and for which I cannot unsuppress.
The common thread is that the are device alarms from smart instruments. The parameters for these are Comm_ALM, Advise_alm and Failed_alm.
Not all device alarms have this issue. The majority behave as they should when unsuppressed, yet I have three tags that I cannot remove from the suppression list.
Am I missing something, Any ideas?

OK, figured something out. May end up with a guardian ticket on this one. I have been addressing incorrect suppression timeout settings as I find them. Lets say for example I have the following HART device alarms: COMM_ALM, FAILED_ALM and MAINT_ALM. I can initially suppress any or all of the three. If before attempting an unsuppress, If I modify the alarm suppression timeout and download the charm module, then the alarm cannot be removed from the suppression list. What is worse, is that if I set the suppression back to 999,0,0 and repeat the download, I can still not remove the suppression. Each of these tags were the result of a modification to the alarm suppression timeout prior to attempting the unsuppress.
