✅ **Current Setup:**  
I've successfully implemented a pipeline in Ignition that sends an email notification to users whenever an alarm is triggered.

**Tag Details:**

- **Tag Name:** `XFMR [Modbus register HRUS2]`
- It’s a **16-bit register** , carrying multiple alarms within a single address.

**Alarm Configuration:**

- I created **16 expression tags** , each reading an individual bit from the register.
- An alarm is configured for each bit individually.
- When any bit changes from `0` to `1`, an associated alert is triggered, and the user receives an email.

**Next Goal** :

I'm now working on a **separate pipeline** that will send an email notification when the corresponding alert is **resolved** (i.e., the bit returns from `1` to `0`).

Current setup for Cleared alarm

I am getting an error in the gateway logs:

**"name=Alarm\_cleared\_pipeline,version=1753801615358] Alarm pipeline scheduled to retire."**

Can somebody help me make it successful?

In the alarm properties (part of the tag properties for each expression tag), did you set the "Clear Pipeline?"

If you do this, I suspect that `Switch` block isn't needed, but I've been wrong before.
