Hello,

I have created a memory tag-set alarm with the condition "equal to 0." I have also set up two pipelines: one for activation ("Active Pipeline") and another for clearing ("Clear Pipeline"), both with script blocks.

In the event that the "Active Pipeline" is triggered, I intend to write a test tag with the value "Active." Conversely, if the "Clear Pipeline" is triggered, I want to write a tag with the value "Clear."

However, when I change the value to 0, the test tag correctly shows "Active." But when I change the value to 1, it does not clear as expected.

If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, please provide them.

Thanks in advance!

I believe by default alarm pipelines have 'Clear' as a dropout condition meaning if your alarm is in that state it wont enter that pipeline, have you removed 'Clear' as a dropout condition?

Hello, @aaronrai24 .Thank you for your response.

I have not removed 'Clear' as a dropout condition.

If you want notifications(or in your case your alarm script in your pipeline) for when an alarm has cleared you'll have to remove that as a dropout condition, [Alarm Notification Pipelines - Ignition User Manual 8.1 - Ignition Documentation](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/Alarm+Notification+Pipelines#AlarmNotificationPipelines-PipelineLifecycle)

Thanks, @aaronrai24.

After disabling the "Cleared" condition from the dropout, it is now working. 😊

Thanks again 🙏
