Defining Transitions

Once you've created the states for an alarm, you must define the transitions between them. Each transition has these components:

• A origin state.
• A destination state.
• A trigger. This is the trigger that will cause the transition.
• A list of actions that will be performed when the transition occurs. For a full description of each action that can take place upon a transition, see Alarm Actions.

The sections below will lead you through the mechanics of creating a new transition in a state diagram, changing the size of the transition icons in a state diagram, and deleting a transition:

• Defining a Transition
• Associating an Action with a Transition
• Changing the Size of Transition Icons
• Deleting a Transition
