Somebody asked me what if second alarm comes on when the
first is going on.

On second alarm, you may choose to design any way you like.
What that means is that you may assume that two alarms do
not come on in overlapping periods by design.
Or if they come on, the second alarm takes over and the effect of the
first one is gone.
