Hey All,

I am alarming on some tags. I have run into a bit of a wall on a scenario I could use some help on.

8.1.36  
No vison or perspective

I have production lines that may stay in a downtime state for hours on end and I currently Alarm on those lines every hour since the first instance of the downtime alarm. An email is sent to a user. Not acknowledging. Not currently sending a clear.

How would I go about blocking/ignoring this alarm until the alarm is cleared after the initial alarm is sent?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
