Hi,

I have configured an opc tag and an alarm pipeline to trigger a mail notification whenever the value reaches the set point.  
I would like to trigger with below condition,  
For eg:  
Setpoint =190.  
When actual tag value reaches 190-\> Trigger a mail notification.  
And wait for 10 mins (even when the actual tag fluctuates and reaches 190 or above - do not trigger mail notification).  
After 10 mins , again the check the actual tag and now if it reaches 190 or above - trigger the mail notification.  
And if a mail triggered , again wait for 10 mins.  
Any ideas to achieve this?

Hi [Dharani\_T](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/u/Dharani_T), you might use a loop in your alarm notification pipeline to achieve that. This is an example of how to configure a simple loop in the pipeline: [Pipeline - Simple Loop - Ignition User Manual 8.1 - Ignition Documentation](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/Pipeline+-+Simple+Loop)
