In the Explorer window, go to Alarms, then Alarm Setup. Then under the Advanced tab you need to put a PLC tag in the "Remote Close Display" box. Here is what the help file says:

Optional connections

Silence - a write connection. If alarms use the audio signal, assign a tag to this connection to notify the data source that alarms have been silenced.
Remote Silence - a read connection. Assign a tag or expression to this connection to allow the data source to silence alarms.
Remote Ack All - a read connection. Assign a tag to this connection to allow the data source to acknowledge all alarms at once.
Status Reset - a write connection. Assign a tag to this connection to notify the data source that the alarm status has been reset, that is, the accumulated time for all alarms has been reset to 00:00:00, and the alarm quantity for all alarms has been reset to 0.
Remote Status Reset - a read connection. Assign a tag or expression to this connection to allow the data source to reset the alarm status.
Close Display - a write connection. Assign a tag to this connection to notify the data source that the pop-up alarm display has been closed.
Remote Close Display - a read connection. Assign a tag or expression to this connection to allow the data source to close the pop-up alarm display.
