Serial conditions are in the AND relationship whereas parallel conditions are in the OR relationship. An alarm must meet all serial conditions under one of the parallel conditions.

    For a serial condition, if Alarm Severity is set to Critical, critical alarms are shielded.

    • Fixed time: Alarm notifications are shielded only in a specified period.

    • Cycle time: Alarm notifications are shielded periodically.
