I'm hoping this is a newbie problem I overlooked. It seems that the alarm email alert is stuckon by the 1st alarm and does not send any other email alarms. Since I am setting up a new empty tank system I found that the default probe alarms that are "hidden" were causing my custom alarm to not get sent. So, I unchecked them and it worked. Then to test this behavior I made 2 simple alarms based on toggle switches in the breakout box I built.
If one switch is cycled ON/OFF the alarm "Toggle_1 is Closed” works as expected. Alert email for 'Toggle_1' set ON and Set Off both get sent. If 'toggle_1' is turned on and then 'toggle_2' is turned on, it seems that I only get an alert email for the 'toggle_1' event. I do not get an email when 'toggle_2' is turned on. I do not get an email when one toggle is switched off. But when both are off I get the “Set Off” email. It seems that once the alarm outlet is on it does not turn on again, which makes sense. But does not seem rather useful to me. What I would like is to get an email/sms alert for every fault when it happens. Not when only the first fault happens and then when all are clear. I’m imagining a situation where something not urgent sets the alarm ON, like low temp and I am already leaving work in an hour. Then a minute later my floor is wet and I don’t get an alert, when in that case I would run home immediately,or call my wife and open Fusion. Is something like this remotely possible? Or am I missing something here? I’m not opposed to trying to create logic gates with multiple virtual outputs. Or if an alarm could set itself off and reset the alarm outlet maybe.
This is the simple alarmcode.
Set OFF
If Toggle_1CLOSED Then ON
If Toggle_2CLOSED Then ON
