[RESOLVED] Brief Alarm question: seeing alarm timer/status
 
I have started making triggers with the #alarm command instead of the old #WA/#WAIT command and am having wonderful results with it.

My question is simply, is there a way to create a status guage to see how much time is left on an active alarm? Or perhaps a way to query how long until a specific alarm fires? I use alarms up to 5 minutes in the future and it would be nice to see how long I have left until it goes off during some specific scenarios.

Give your alarm an ID, then you can check it with the %alarm function.

type #ALARM all by itself and it will tell you how long till all your various alarms next fire
