can send an email notication or activate an output port when an alarm is triggered. The set of conditions that denes how and
when the action is triggered is called an action rule. If multiple conditions are dened, all of them must be met to trigger the action.
For more information about available triggers and actions, see Triggers on page 35 and Actions on page 37.
