I'm a bit confused. According to the issue page you linked to, what I have
originally is the right thing.

if status !=0 for 2 cycles then alert

But you are saying, this is right

if status !=0 for 2 times within 2 cycles then alert

Aren't both of them same?  Can you explain the difference?

>From what I understand,  the way i can read the first setting is

if status !=0 for 2 attempts then alert

Is that wrong?
