– Set your first Alert Action<\/em> to Audio On. Have subsequent Alert Actions<\/em> alternate between Audio Off and Audio On.<\/p>\n– Keep increasing the Start the Action after ___ seconds<\/em> for each item in your list. (In our example, we increase it each time by 30 seconds.)<\/p>\n– Set Perform the action a maximum of ___ times<\/em> to 1 for each item in your list.<\/p>\n– Set all of your Clear Actions<\/em> to Audio Off so that no matter what, the sound will cease when the alarm condition no longer exists.<\/p>\n– Set your last Alert Action<\/em> to the state you want to end the series with.
