Alarm Journal Query
The Alarm Journal Query data source is a simple way to access Alarming data within a report. It can pull from both the alarm journal data in the database as well as the current live events that would show up in the Alarm Status Table.
Once created, the new Data Source will expose many alarming related keys in the Design Panel's Key Browser
