Overview

The alarmBlock has an option to select a variable that triggers from the "Select a variable" dropdown.
The block contains both inflow or outflow gates (the teardrop shaped links). This means that the alarm block can be triggered by a link, and can, in turn, trigger further actions, like sending an email for example.
