Alerts trigger once and wait until they are resolved before they can be triggered again. However, reconfiguring an alert such as adjusting alert trigger limits or disabling and re-enabling it will always resolve alert, which leads to a new trigger if the alert condition remains after reconfigruration. Image below shows trigger-events with red arrow and resolve-events with blue arrow.

Additionally, alerts can trigger at most once per hour for user and alert per sensor, this reduces spam in case where e.g. fridge swings back and forth the alert thresholds. Business users can configure delay before triggering an alert for e.g. walk-in freezers which might spike up for a short while when someone enters and then drop back to allowed range.

For full details of alert triggering and resolving logic, please see the following flowchart.
